Default E-revo motor and esc?

G'day guys,

I've just started biulding my E-revo and because i'm new to electric, I have no idea what motor and ESC to run. At the moment I'm thinking a tekin R1 pro esc matched with a trinity monster brushless N80 motor.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

That motor/ESC combo will fry. Too small for a Revo. I run the Novak HV-Maxx 6.5. I've won a couple of A-mains against all nitro fields. It does the job well.

I think he wants to make a recommendation based on your budget. Cost is always a good place to start narrowing things down.

Thats exactly what I wanted to get to... For an E-revo if you dont have a budget then I'd go brushless. Heres what I would get for an E-revo

ESC= Quark 125b

Brushless Motor= Plettenberg Maxximum

Thanks for that, appreciate it.

So I've narrowed it down to definitly getting the quark monster and out of the motors it's either gonna be neu 1950 or the Plettenberg.
