I see how that could be a pain. Wouldn't be a problem on the Losi I don't think. Let me know what you think of those motors. I was thinking of trying them. I'm only wondering who's selling brushes for them at a decent price. Maybe bulk pricing. I don't want to spend $5 a pair.

I think it would be fine on the G+...

It comes with 3 pairs of brushes in the box

Ahh, so there is a down-side to the V2 motor! I wish they were out with it in stock form already! C'mon Team Orion, not all of us are good enough to run Mod!

Well talking to Dan, when his motors are released, you will have an alternative out there if you want a really fast stocker.

Hey Randman, it's nice that you got a V2 in there. You'll like the motor a lot. Kinda like a brushless but you have to maintain it like every other week. Cool huh. The V2 is good, you just need to find the right timing and gearing combo.

Also, by the looks of the blue endbell, you may have gotten the one designed for offroad but I'm not sure.

In any event, the motor's pretty neat.

Default Up and running

Hey guys,

Just thought I'd dropped in and let ya'll know I'm up and running around again. LOL.. it's be a bad week with the flu and after a few extra days of resting, I managed to get slightly better so I'm posting again.

Also, I would like to apologize for the recent events that happened here on this thread. It is not our intention to have it that way and all has been settled privately. I'm sure there are still those who questions what really happened but honestly, I have no idea. Lets just leave it at that and move on to INFORMATIOIN SHARING shall we..?

Thanks again for the "Get Well" notes, emails and PMs.

Motors are on its way, and things are looking good again so thanks for hangin around and waiting patiently for them. I'm sure they'll perform to your expectation. Thanks again.

Dan
