Yep, I agree with Wreckers that esc/motor are for 1/10th. That combo is a nice price with the programing card. It looks like a relabeled version of these two:

These look good, me and a mate are just about to start converting a Hyper 7 each to brushless for a bit of fun, so I will keep an eye on this thread.

Just picked up a lovely Hyper 7 Pro tonight, I am so chuffed with it. It makes my dear old original Hyper 7 look like something from the 80's.

I think I have read somewhere that it does, but I am sure someone else can confirm.

yes that what use just need to raise centre diff 2-3mm so motor clears chassis, also some guys do away with the battery tray alloy mount an drill n counter sunk chassis so screws sit flush, doing so shell fits neater
