Some questions on converting my savage

[doo540]

I have a XL with a Kershaw Design's motor mount. I run a MMM V2 with a MaxAmps 4S 35C 8400 lipo. It fits under the motor inside the frame. Motor is Neu 1515 1Y, 16 tooth pinion, stock spur, radar confirmed 48 mph. I find its very controllable at that speed for bashing and makes for huge air when jumping. I'm still running the stock 3 speed with no issues. I'm currently doing the CEN GEN diff upgrade, I blew thru 3 stock savage diff pinions. THe truck is otherwise mostly stock, except the tires are Losi Bolt-On with Proline 23 hex rims. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info. SO a 3 speed can stay put then, if you take out the one way can reverse be used from the esc? Now are you guys using the savage brakes or the esc brakes?
I have looked at that kershaw setup, buddy is thinking about trying their motors as well.

Now here is a question for you doo, I have these tvps now

THanks again

The only way reverse can be used via the esc/motor, is if you lock it up in a single gear... the same thing applies for the brakes on the esc/motor - must be locked in one gear to utilise the esc/motor in that way.
