Default Brushless setup

Im after a brushless system, preferably an Lrp/Nosram and a 4.5/5.5 motor. Am sick to death of changing brushes and then skimming it, its got boring!!!
Im not sure how many variations of brushless systems there are but its for an x-5 so would like something small-ish.

Thanks

Don't get a 4.5, it's way too fast.

What sort of track will you be running on? I think a 4.5 will be too aggresive for a belt car and you might end up doin some damage to the belt and pulley. Most people tend to run a 6.5 or a 5.5. Hope this helps

Right ok that sounds fair enough. And yea, ill be running mostly regionals. 5.5 sounds like a good option then and i can always turn down the speed easily, im a bit unsure of the motor specs as iv never ran one so thanks for all your help.

Cos gears are bulletproof ben? A 4.5 is far too quick for indoors, sometimes my 5.5 LRP is too much, but it is a good balance for indoor and outdoor.

yeh gears are quite reliable lol. Quicker to replace than taking nearly every screwout of the xx4 to change the belt tom.
