The motor will be just fine. Swap out the speedo and be more careful. :lol:

are you sure the gtb is for sure dead? my gtx went up in smoke because SOMEONE ACCIDENTLY reversed the polarities on my battery and when i plugged it in smoke went flying all over the place and a wire unsoldered from the esc it was so hot.

If you want to take it apart there are three screws on the back of the can
