Brushless hpi baja rc-monster

[jpoprock]

Question... My goal is to one day in the next year or so to BUY a used/hopped up 5T. But for me, the allure was the idea it runs on gas. I wouldn't have to worry about it getting wet, and could drive it anywhere, anytime.

If you go with Brushless... now suddenly you have to worry about sand, water, mud, etc getting on the ESC and in the motor. So... what's so great about going BL in something like this, other than lack of noise!?

Thanks!
