Brushless or Jonhson 970 conversion?

[ryanvm777]

I was looking at going with the drill motor set up. After lots of research I went with rc-monster.com. Some of the big down falls with the drill motors are:

1. Weight, you would have to have 2 big fat drill motors to evon come close to the torque you can get from brushless.

2. Brushless motors have no brushess so they are very low maintance.

3. Finding brushes when motor needs to be rebuilt.

4. If you have problems with your drill motor setup were do you go? Lots of people have brushless and is very easy to find help if you need it from this or other forums.

5. Drill motors require a special motor mount bracket for the E-maxx. Brushless bolt right on.

If you want torque and and power I would save your $ and go with the brushless. I am sure Mike can set you up with gearing that will make your truck do what ever you want it to do.
