motors
 

are there any upgraded motors you can buy?

if there is where can you get one?

You can go at this a few different ways...

1. The stock motor is already pretty "hot". If you opt to go with a 7.4v Lipo pack instead (check the Compatibility List thread for lipo options), that's one way to upgrade

2. Atomic released a new motor for the Micro-T called the "Atomic BB". Supposedly the motor is about equivalent to the stock, except is uses Ball Bearings.

3. Go Brushless. This is the most extreme option as you'd have to swap in all your own electronics (ESC, Receiver, Servo) but there's been quite a few people who've gone this route and enjoyed the project.

If you're not looking to get too extreme, too quickly...I've recommend option #1 and check out the new offering coming soon from Team Losi directly (a Lipo and charger package).

thanks ill keep that in mind

I picked up the team losi li-po battery an charger combo
and it's pretty damn sweet, I put the largest pinion gear
on and it'll still do wheelies when the charge is fresh.

hey i want to get a losi li po battery and an atomic BB engine, those 2 are compatible right?? And will that increase my speed and run times cuz thats what im looking for. And also i want to purchase some new shocks, what brand/model would you guys recommend? I am very new at this so all the help i can get would be appreciated!

im using a 7.4 lipo pack and the atomic bb motor on mine. it works just fine. for the run times, i think its extended about 5 min or so.
