    HPI E Firestorm motor advice

    Hi guys I have a HPI e Firestorm I bought a few years ago. Its 2WD 1/10th scale. I bought to just mess around with. It has a brushed set up now and Im bored with it. Can someone suggest a brushless setup that wont break the bank and can run decent speeds on 2S ? Thanks in advance.

    Do you want to race it or just bash? for racing get a 17.5t stock class or around 10.5t or so for a mod setup, hobbyking has really cheap setups, $25 for a 35amp esc and $18 for a 10.5t brushless motor (sensored) or sensorless, that will be your cheapest option, or for a full race spec, go with Speedpassion GT2.0 or tekin RS ESC and similar branded motor ( $150 + ESC, $80 Motor)
