Brushed Motor for RC18 or Vendetta

[Idriveayellowr]

What size of motor do the Vendetta and RC18B/T take?
Is it the same for both vehicles?
What is the best brushed motor for these cars? I will be racing carpet stadium.

I will be running a Novak Micro ESC and no idea what batteries.

Thanks,

Kyle

I like to run this one...



As you can see its easily serviceable and seems to have some good low end power...







I can get you a link if you want a good deal.

All kidding aside I have heard the team orion baja is a good one.

The rc 18 uses a smaller motors (180,280,300,370) sized can.(2mm shaft)

The Vendetta uses larger motors (380,400) sized can.(2.3mm shaft)

You can run the smaller motors in a Vendetta but you will have heat and power issues (Vendetta is larger and heavier)

You can run the bigger motors in a rc18 but you will have fitment issues
(pinions and chassis space)

Ditto, what Berm said.

the Robitronic's 300 motor is back in stock at Great Planes. It's nine bucks.
