I'd set it up for locked into 2nd gear with just fixing the servo linkage but at some point you will want to remove all the 1st gear internals to reduce rotating mass.

This is not very clear Chris, I think you need to proofread. You cannot lock a revo in 1st or 2nd by adjusting a linkage. You may be thinking of the old emaxx 2 speed?
Anyway, to the OP: with brushless it is usually best to lock the tranny is 2nd gear, and then use motor brakes. You can only use motor brakes if you lock the tranny, as it has a one-way bearing in it. I would do the lock and remove all of the mechanical brake hardware.
Since it has a center diff you may want to put thicker fluid in it. This will help with braking, and also help with the front tires unloading from the increased power and punch that a brushless setup has over the nitro engine.
If any of this is not clear or you would like some addl info just reference this.
