I tossed the motor esc rx and so forth. I got an order placed with Amain for a servo mount from xray and a cheap 10 dollar servo for the thing.
I plan to get one of those dirt cheap leopard combos for it as well as one of those 20 dollar 2.4 radios.
After that I think I will see if the thing can take more power on plastic driveline, otherwise I think I will go with some of the limited aluminum parts for it.
I am hoping to keep this as close to the hundred dollar range as possible. I have a feeling though that I will be needing some drivline upgrades when transferring to brushless.
