Thanks. They're 55T motors. Very good quality. I went with the Reedy name because I used them back in my "brushed" days. AAMOF the first motor I bought for my Rustler over 10 years ago was a Reedy modified 12T double. The brushes are still wearing in on these motors, so they do "skip" occasionally. As it stands the top speed is about 7 mph on this rig. Low speed looks to be ~1/4 mph. The Sidewinders provide perfectly smooth control. I do want to upgrade the radio to 2.4 at some point. All of the metal-to-metal friction causes the FM to glitch once in a while. I don't think I will need an external BEC. The two SW BECs together have no trouble powering that brushless servo. The only reason I would get one is to run the servo at 6V, instead of 5V. The BLS351 won't be staying in there. More than likely I'll buy the HS7955TG; and another when I can get the rear steer kit.
