RE: E-Maxx Motors
I have a bone stock Emaxx my self.I use it pretty much to race around with my son in the yard he has a stampede.I was suprised or the speed from the stock motors it pulls wheelies and I think its pretty quick for stock,,thats why I havent upgraded yet.
But if you wanna go the cheapest route you can pick up some"I think there called" badmaxx motors therr 17t motors and throw them in that will get you going faster with out having to get a new ESC,also you could try to play around with pinion sizes to get you where you want to be with new motors.
Or if you wanna spend $200-$300 you could pick up a Brushless set up.The easiest way to go would be to go with the Novak HV maxx brushless set up I think it sells for liek $175 at tower hobbies,,maybe cheaper on ebay or somewhere else.That comes with everythign jsut plug it up and play I heard there nice plenty of power and speed.
But others told me for like $50 or so more dollars you can get a set up with twice the speed and power of the Novak system,I forget what they were but I dunno they said something about those were cogging,,and HV is non cogging.I dont knwo much about it,,maybe try to ask this in the Electric truck,biggy,car forum,they can help you out better.
