hey guys i recently took delivery of a new pickle. i have 2 motors i could use just not sure which to go with. i have both an ammo 2600 and a fiegao 9l. i will be running 3/4s. so which would better suit this hull? ill snap some pics of the begining. so far all i have done is paint the hull.

Swap out those motors for a ul-1 motor and run 4s. a x440/3 would be good. 4s is too hoy for those motors really.

will either of these motors run ok on 3s? i already have both that is why i ask. if not then can i safely run the ul-1 motor with the xpower 100a esc? i ask because if i end up putting that motor in the pickle i will put the ammo or fiegao back into my rio ep with the hydra 120. that is where the ammo/ hydra setup resides right now.

The X-power would be great with the ul-1 motor. Those motors would both work on 3s, but prop size would be more limited.
