BTW..the 9918 and 9L are perfect..everything went fine..I have not oped it up yet on the road but how are the brakes? Is it hard on the motor when the brakes are applied from full speed?
Thanks Mike

One reason to flip the tranny is to allow shorter wires between the motor and controller. I mount the controller on the rear upper deck (g-maxx chassis). If the rear of the motor faces the rea of the truck, the wires can be very short. Also, the e-maxx tends to be nose heavy, so I don't recommend moving any more weight to the front of the truck. I also mount my controllers with velcro and zip ties - no fancy mounts here. Braking does put stress on the controllers, but as long as you aren't overgeared, they will work fine. I have heard of two cases so far of brake fade, both with relatively high gearing.
