I like the looks of the bolido, but do you know where I can get more info on it? Its neat that its a direct fit for an fg pinion which is also mod1.5 and makes life easier

Lol, it's funny that this brushless motor costs 100 dollar less in the EU. Mostly all things are cheaper in the US than in Europe..

Harold pointed out the place to get the motor and the pinion can be found at https://sdp-si.com/eStore/, click on metric go to spur gears and use the drop down boxes to select the following: 1.5, With Hub & set screw and the bore size.

Gotta watch them... I ordered 8mm bore 1.5mod 12t pinions for my baja and selected w/hub and setscrew and they showed up without any setscrews, or the drilled/tapped holes that a setscrew would go into... Good thing I have a drill press...

Good to know, but it hasn't happened to me yet. Thanks for the heads up. Did you get the carbon steel ones?
