Yeah. With the tc6.1 servo being the way it it the sr300 is a little big but it will fit with some finagling. The sr3100 or sr3520 would make things a little easier.

No. the sr3100 and 3250 are dsm2 and the sr300 is dsm1. The dx3c is dsm1 only. You would need the dx3s or dx3r to run a dsm2 RX. The sr300 will fit in your car but you would just need to move a few things around.

I would try and keep it mounted to the chassi. So mount it on it's side. This keeps as much weight as possible as low ad possible.

Lrp esc's are my favorite speedos. But bottom line most anything will work, you just need to go off your budget and requirements. My favorite setup I have is a old LRP Sphere tc with a Team Epic Duo 3 17.5. I also have a LRP ssx that feels great but they have had reliability issues with the bec. I just bought a Orion r10 that feels a lot like a Lrp does to me.

Most people buy a esc because of the "feel" they provide. That is why you read so many opinions on what people like and don't, we all like a different feel. For ME, a motor doesn't matter as much. There are some I wont touch but I have had good luck with duo 3, revtech, reedy sonic, and thunderpower.

I just bought the Orion r10 race ESC and it feels great. I just switched from the Tekin and I like it. Has a great feel. I still use Tekin, but the Orion is nice. It was 165. You can find some good deals on the for sale section. Do you want to use boost or just run timing on the motor. That will determine what kind of ESC you will need.
