Brushless systems?

[Zachary]

Okay so i should be getting a really nice rc18t and whats the top or fastest brushless system out there for it thats reasonably priced. I
m looking at the 8000kv by mamba for 95 of ebay. are they any good? let me know.:bow:

Actually mate yes they are. You may need to change out the speedie at a later date but it works ok. The 8000kv CC motor goes REAL hard........ You will find that you will be happy even with just a 2s lipo...... Grab it, NO WORRIES

I thought the 6800 way fast and hard to control in my rc18t with a 2cell lipo. You will need to replace the front diff for metal or you will have to replace it the first run you drive it. I like the mambas that is all I buy and out of 4 systems one has only crashed because I got bored and drove it in the snow. I drove it all winter then it crashed in the beginning of spring and they replaced.

I have 5 brushless systems, two of the being castle and I love them. Castle just released the brand new mamba micro pro system, and that's what I would get if I were you. It's not any more expensive than the old system, but it has a lot of upgrades over the previsou version and runs a lot smoother. I think it may come with the castle link programmer, but if it doesn't, definitely buy one. They're around $20 if you buy them seperate, and it's amazing what all you can program by plugging the ESC into the computer.

i prefer my novak systems over the castle ones but only because they are sensored setups. The programming capabilities are excellent with castle but i don't tweak that much and i can deal with good old esc manual programming to get me where i need to be.

Upgrade the drivetrain before you even think brushless. My recomendation is MIP super diffs, MIP cvd's, and a full bearing kit.
