I have a Novarossi P5 XLT that I ran in my truggy. Has tons of power, so I will be running it here to see how I like it.

For those of you running E buggy will a 1800kv be enough or will a 2000kv be too much?

I run an Orion 1750 in mine. I race at St.louis Dirt Burners if you wanna see how big the track is. pretty good size and had more than enough power. Our track can be low-med bite at times and also rough so a lower kv motor helped me keep control. if your track has good traction you can probably get away with running a 1950 but I wouldnt go over that. a 1750-1900 is pretty much the norm for most outdoor tracks

I split between two motors for the E buggy, 1900kv tekin and 2200kv castle. Both run a full ten minute on any track on a 4s 5600 trakpower 60c pack. The tekin seems to be smoother so on tight tracks and the castle bigger open tracks.

Hey mark no the buggy and truggy won't fit the same box the chassis on the truggy is about 50mm or 2" longer than the buggy and the engine, radio tray, centre diff etc all sit further back
