Tribeshead

Can anyone suggest a good brushless combo that wont break the bank, and tell me the stuff i would need such as fan and gears thanks. ( i have a hsp tribeshead 94115 1/10 if it helps.)

For a sensored combo i use a Novak gtb2 an ballistic motor but that will put u down 170$.
For something cheaper i've heard the Castle Creations stuff is good,although i'm not sure how hot it runs so u may need a fan and it's sensorless. Other wise u just need a pinion gear and what ever plugs you use for both.

This setup will be faster, cheaper and given Novak's current rep for quality or lack thereforof, probably even more reliable than any other setup you'll find for under $150. Sensorless means the motor can run "rough" at low rpms but is not something I'd worry about if you're not going to be serious about racing in the near future.

Gearing will be truck and setup specific and the only time I've ever heard of yours is in some of your previous posts. Do you know your trucks final drive ratio, i.e. the gearbox ratio, so we can compare it to other more widely known trucks to give you a guesstimate on a gear ratio?
