what speedo to use
how fast does the servo need to be
and how much tourqe those mini servos dont seem to have alot dont seem to be fast do they not need to be as much for this scale i dont know much i have raced tc but 1/12 looks more challenging i just need help getting over the learning curve

what would the best set up be with expense laid aside but keeping roar legal
Servo: .11 is good. Dont worry about tork. Not much needed.
13.5 with single cell lipo
LRP (anything but spx) speedo, speed passion, RS, RS pro. Any of those will give great HP.
Start with the stock 4cell setup and tweak for the single cell.
You will need a booster for single cell.
I would start with Black frt and grey rear tires.
Any high down force body will do.
