Buy a brushless slash and it will be less expensive that way. This one is a brushed truck

Thanks for the inquiry. The VXL models come with brushless motors.Best regardsRichard

They work with any brushless motor. I use it on 2212/13 1000kV motors with no issue.

You do need the following, A soldering or heat shrink to connect the esc to the batteryYou need a usb programer, if u want an easy way to program the esc without have to use the manual wayIf your upgrading from brushed to brushless, you gonna need to change pinion gear and spur gear to different size. Otherwise the esc will get hot and u have to wait for it to cool down.Lastly u need some type connector between esc and battery, i recommend ec5 connector for better performance

hi; The kit comes w/ no instructions. This what I did. Go online..google "mjx brushless kit". One of the search results will be from www.yousky7.com/mjx. Click on that one. On the web site there will a ad for the mjx Brushless upgrade and below that it will say "click here for details". Click there and go thru the details and it will lead to the Installation Instructions(they are even color illustrated). This should resolve your questions. Take your time.

The Brushless 71074-1 E-Revo with LiPo's will get you there to 50 MPH!!! Have Fun!

I ordered and they sent different one if that the one you get it should work, if not send back, seems to be crapshoot with brushless

OK, the Co. that makes this is "CONHIS MOTOR" super great motors as well as controllers and then you will need 4 12v12ah or 12v15ah SLA batteries they all will have to be wired together as 1 48volt battery these batteries can be B&B or UPG I personally like UPG because of the price and performance!

They are all good. If maximum speed is what you are after and run LiPo batteries, the brushless is the why to go (budget permitting).

Good sir, yes very good brushless motor! 4s so 4 x 3.7= a bunch of volts. Have good day.

Agree with the other comments, stay with the battery you have, get extra if needed.Used 2C LiPo for a short moment but that simply meant replacing the motor often. Ended up upgrading the motor to brushless and now using LiPos Makes it a fun, fast, little car.Based on my experience now it would have been much better buying a brushless version from the beginning.

Just make sure your old motor is also 540 size. Will work fine as long as same size motor.

The batteries will work with all the 18v brush motors. Just not the compact 18vs.

Upgrading the battery and tail rotor is huge some weight in the nose helps. If you fly it often then you will want to put in a little bigger tail motor wl 913/f 45 are good choices.

This combo will make an unbelievable difference in a rustler. That brushless motor will seem like its too fast at first. Excellent upgrade. Add a lipo and you're likely to destroy your rustler and or somebody's shin. Http://YouTube.com/artincbydb for lots of awesome rc vids.

You need the VXL speed control as well, a brushless motor will not run with the brushed speed control you have in your bandit.

Might want to start with a bit smaller battery. 7.4V Lipo, mah number translates into runtime. Save some money with shorter runtime. Lipo will be noticeable difference especially with brushless motors. Nice truck, you'll like it. I recommend the sway bar kit from Traxxas, cheap upgrade, much better handling.
