Go easy on him lads! Lol!

Its my leccy firestorm on 3s VS my mates xtm xt2.

Does anybody know what motor mount to use on the xt2 for a brushless conversion?

I have seen an XT2e, so can i use that mount if there available!

the nitro bogged down on take off - hence the huge amounts of smoke, which hampers the take off greatly

But yes tbh, it'd take alot of nitro grunt to beat a electric in a drag with brushless lipo

Thing is tho - stick them in a tug of war, see which wins then
