LOL i know!

Still, very wise moove going to an 8.5, You wont regret that at all mate

3.5 in an X10 would be out of this world fast haha

Couple of quick questions: Will I notice a big difference in performance with the 8.5t brushless compared with the 14x2t brushed that's currently in my Durga? Also, if I went mad and got the 4.5t would I need to spend a lot more on the esc compared to the 8.5t?
Cheers, Darren.

Good question. An 8.5T is probably roughly equivalent to a 14T brushed (I think). You should certainly get much more run time and reliability.

Depends on the speedo you are looking at. Most decent ones will run the 8.5, but not all the 4.5. Mine older nosram for instance has a 5.5t (but in practice a 6.5t) limit.

I hope to run my Nosram 4.5t with my Novak GTB. I am hoping all will be sweet as i have never run a different motor with it. It has only run the Novak Velociti 7.5R, hope it will be compatible and maybe a bit more smoother power delivery. Dont think Modelsport will have many motors left now. I told them i had advertised the discounted motors on a forum and asked if they would supply me with a 16T pinion free of charge for the extra work i had drummed up for them and guess what they obliged, so thanks very much Modelsport!

I doubt moving from a 7.5 to a 4.5 will give quite that effect

What is the UK mainland shipping cost for these motors (web site doesn't say other than free over99£) ?

[Medders]

When you put it in the basket it does. Mine was £2 postage, i.e. a total price of £38. It arrived the day after I ordered it.
