The design of the Baja really doesn't lend itself to a clean 4wd setup. I've seen people running belts off the spur gear up to the front but IMO it looks tacky. The Baja is a blast to drive, partly because it's 2wd. A 4wd 1/5th truck would be sweet, but considering the 2WD 5T costs $1300, I don't want to think what a 4WD would cost.

A single 1527 should do the job just fine, I don't really like the length of them though. Too much weight hanging off the screws and front endbell coupled with the forces that are sure to be exerted on it by bashing it I'd rather have something shorter or have some support in the rear. Dual 1515s, 1521s, or 1915s would be a sweet setup. I know dual motors aren't as efficient as a single setup and it doubles the chances of a failure but it's so much easier to get the power you need by just adding another motor rather than making an ESC that can handle a massive motor.


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.
