Suggestions for brushless Jato... - 03.04.2008, 11:14 PM

Well now that the Revo is 99% done, I've decided to convert the jato.

I bought a buddy's Jato that had less than 1/4 gallon through it. He's replaced about everything on it with upgrades and with all that, ez start, extra wheels and tires and absolutely flawless condition, I only paid 200 bucks.

I pulled the engine with ezstart motor and pipe and put it on ebay. Right now it's at 113.00 bucks with 6 days left. Hell, I'll almost have the Jato paid for...lol.

Anyway, sorry, got distracted, I installed a RC Monster motor mount I pulled from the Revo. It was flexing and I don't think it'll flex so much with a lesser motor and battery.

So, what size motor and which controller would you suggest? I want to run a 3S battery (5000mah). I was actually thinking of getting a VXL motor out of a Rustler or Stampede. The VXL's I have now simply fly... Do you think that would be enough?

Thanks in advance for everyone's suggestions.

Mark
