TBH, I think you'd be happier with lipos if you can swing it. I don't think I've seen any NiMH cells that can provide the current AND voltage BL systems can pull... not without stressing them anyway.
Dont forget, he said he has a $300 limit. I dont think you can get a full set up (motor/esc/UBEC/gears/heatsink) for under 300 unless you go with Novak. I'd also recommend a 4.5 instead of the 6.5. Its a little faster. IMHO, the Novak systems are great plug and play systems. No, your not going to be the fastest on the block, but they should be reliable systems that will hold up over the long run. 45MPH in a maxx is probably not going to happen, especially if you dont pop for lipo's. But you probably wont hit that with the systems mentioned above without lipo's either.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
