Advice on Brushless conversion
Hi,
I made a post last year on my battery consumption, and I still have the issue. I think rubbing is part of the problem but even with body raisers, I still have the issue. I am going to try raising the body even more, but I think the stock ESC is also not playing in my favor and the battery cutoff is too high.
I want to try swapping to a brushless kit (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005010089223223.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.7917nk5Lnk5L8A&mp=1&pdp\_npi=6%40dis%21CAD%21CAD+135.84%21CAD+67.99%21%21CAD+67.99%21%21%21%402101d97817783699252627971ecbfb%2112000051099356417%21ct%21CA%211902039621%21%211%210%21). Did anybody already install this exact one ? How is the ESC/Motor combo ? Do you get better or worse battery life ? Is the 21g servo worth upgrading ?
Kit includes motor, gearbox, ESC, and compatible receiver.
I also want to try a lipo battery, since the ESC accepts 3S. With this setup, does the 3S make the model go much faster ? With the MN receiver, will the ESC be able to switch between crawling and fast mode like from factory ?
Thanks for the answers !
Current setup :
- big tires
- metal gears and driveshaft
- metal body raisers
- metal rear suspension kit
- stock electronics
