If you get a motor with a 5MM shaft and would prefer a 1/8" shaft, I will gladly swap rotors with you. Wait until you get your motor and PM me if you find you want to do a swap.

You could try spurs from a different brand of car.

Looks like an associated spur and slipper pads might work (though you would have to slightly enlarge the hole in the spur [from .187" to .197"]).

Most people experience the ESC heating up. President of Castle said it can run way past 200F without problems (check rc-monster.com).

If by smooth you mean being able to take off withoit cogging, the latest software and being a four pole motor makes for very good starts.

I think you might have gotten that "550s have twice the torque of the 540" from Novak, but it is not 100% accurate. The Novak 540 rotor is 1.0" long and the 550 rotor is 1.75" long, so it is probably...

I ordered it from Tower on September 19th - the day I saw it listed.
