I dont believe so- there are fewer & smaller gears so you need to use thicker oil to have the same effect. Not sure whats recommended, but the traxxas website might have some info- racer setup sheets etc

Yeah, they will open up easily enough- should be instructions & pictures on the traxxas website ( .pdf diagrams and manual ).

No problem to open them up, but i really dont know what oil i should put i in. I have read alot and everybody say difference... 100k around? Just to save the diff. Its for the kids so its not that important its perfekt. But the stock oil is 30k and very soft..

If you want quality without question, then the hitec is great- I have a savox and although its really nice, it doesnt quite have the power I'd like- price is great though which works in its favour. You can look into Ace servos, BlueBird servos and Jr servos too- so many brands you could spend a month looking and never make a decision.

A pair of those Bluebird ones from hobbyking would be great though, plenty of power & still much cheaper than a single hitec..

Thats about 190in/ozs- not bad, but I think you'd find it a little lacking; I used to run a pair of hitec hs645mgs with a total of ~266in/oz and they struggled to move my wheels at a standstill, so...

I mean, look at the price though, ~$45 for 380in/oz of torque- thats a killer deal if you dont mind having a dual steering servo setup. If you prefer a single servo setup then something around 250 in/oz ( 18kg/cm ) is always suggested for best results..

Hard case vs no hard case. The hard case is handy if the batteries are exposed at all, or you tend to have bad crashes that might send the lipo flying through the air if the battery straps fail- just a little extra protection, but it makes the lipo and little larger too.

With the FLM chassis, I doubt you would need the hard case verison, just use a couple good velcro staps ( along & across the lipo/ battery tray ).

Does the savox have the same quality as hitec?
I find that savox have some new waterproof standard servo and they are strong.
Look at "Nyher från savöx" in the middle.

Will this fit my new emaxx?
