The Nosram is easy to fit and setup, I would say the motor is no longer than a V2 mod can...Doesnt seem to stick out.

Awesome so far, not a glitch to report, and it runs cool! the speedie was barely noticably warm, motor much cooler than an equivalent 7 turn brushed would be.

You can get the nosram Matrix Evo + 4 star motor from Metro Hobbies In melbourne, Ph: 98901144

Speak to Peter If he is out of stock he can get it within 2 days.

Some of the guys posting in this thread are team sponsored drivers, so I think I will listen to them. I know two of them are for sure!

Both Brushed and Brushless have their advantages and diadvantages.

Brushed are extremely smmoth, and have a very good feel to them especially when off throttle, and in braking. The advantage of BL is there is minimal fade through a run, and no need to work on them every run to keep them consistent.

The biggest differences will be longevity, especially in onroad, as we get more runtime and voltage the brushed motors simply will not be able to keep up (under the current overall design specs)

It will take time for people to come to grips with the different characteristics of BL, but in the long run there is no other feasible option. Note this is from experience in Onraod where power makes a big difference, offroad where power delivery and driveability is more important, there may be some differences.

Well said Besercoe,
As proved at the Offroad Nats, Brushless systems seem to suit 4wd rather than 2wd/Truck. Drivability is the issue.
2wd can be quite a handful with a Brushless, although I have messed around with a T4/Brushless with a hydradrive, very smooth!!!
