Couple Noob AX10 questions

[steve050773]

Thinking about doing a build of an AX10 - mainly for goofing off, not competition - got a couple of questions:

1 - I have access to either a MM already wired up with a BEC or a standard sidewinder. Both with latest firmware. I know either would work, but would one be better in a brushless setup? I "assume" the MM would be, especially since it has the CC ext BEC, but the sidewinder is no slouch.

2 - I need a brushless motor that works with the standard motor plate. I'm not sure if the JRH Crawlmasters would work or not. If so, what Kv with 3s lipo? 1000? Could I use on of the Goat motors or another in runner option??

Thanks!
