Uprade that engine to an brushless motor :yes: smoother, faster and more fun (oh and less noisy!!) 

 

Be interested in what you use for shock upgrades I've tried a few and all have been too short :thumbsup:

is 4s roughly equiv to nitro power wise? 

im in the long term process of converting mine to brushless and im trying to gauge what sort of power i want

4s is ok and with the right gearing your looking at around 40-45mph, you want to really look at 5-6s if you really want speed 6s with the right gearing I suppose you would be looking at around 60+ mph, I usually use 4 or 5s
