    Is neu castle motors on ebay fake ? , also plz help in budget electrical build for 8ight-xe

    I wouldnt put 1/5 scale parts in an 1/8 scale buggy personally. Its going to perform like crap compared to a proper 1/8 scale electronics combo. I would look for a Tekin 4030 series motor somewhere around 1700-1900kv and an RX8 ESC or Id Look at a Castle 15XX series motor around the same KV...
