i bought Jason's Matrix last week and am now waiting for it to show up. A tracking number was provided, but once the buggy entered the states, it stopped tracking. now, i get to play the waiting game. Jason gave me a great deal and all i'll need to run it is an ESC and radio gear. it has a Medusa 60mm 2000kv motor.

now, i just need to decide which voltage to run. should i get a 4s lipo or a 5s lipo? either way, i will gear for ~40mph.

edit: the motor mount is mounted to the chassis and not the center diff mount. the chassis is 3mm 7075 with metal braces. usually, it isn't a good idea to mount a motor like this on a buggy or truggy. is this chassis stiff enough to get away with it?

They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
