Hi Guys,
Are there any 1/8 brushless motors and escs out there for a 1/8 summit that you would suggest under $250? (Cheaper the better)

I put a speed passion 2000kv silver arrow setup in mine and it was $250 it went pretty good

I use to have a summit that I ran the following combo with:

If you are going to be crawling w/ the summit then you'll want sensored but to be honest there is so much lash in the tranny that cogging won't be you concern.

Just be aware, even on 4S the Summit's diff lockers won't stand up to brushless power. Prepare yourself for grenaded diffs.

If you need more power, think about a DeWalt 14.4v conversion kit instead.

We all have our own experiences and that wasn't my experience; mine held up just fine to the brushless motors.

So if i try to use my summit with 4s and lock the diffs it would kill it? Or just in general if i use 4s and run it, it will screw the diffs

I never had a problem running 4s in my summit

Also ive had a look at the DeWalt 14.4v motor and i was wondering when i purchase the motor will it come with the wires connected or do i have to solder them, because i didnt see them in the picture so i didnt know what to expect when i bought one.
