Hi everyone,
I just got the mini rio and it should be here this tuesday and I've been doing alot of reading on upgrading to a brushless system however I have been only finding bits of information and am unable to see the whole picture since I've never done this before.

So far here is what i've have:

I am thining about this motor: http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...idproduct=4201

This ESC:

A snag I've hit is trying to figure out which lipo battery I can use, That motor says 6-12V so I wasn't sure if the 11.1V was as safe to use as the 7.4V. Or if it is possile to use a higher mAh as long as the # of cells and volts are safe?

Here are the 3 batteries I've found so far:

http://hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store...idproduct=9165

The next problem I have is I've heard that the default radio system that comes with the MR cannot be used when you upgrade so what is a cheap alternative and where can you get it?

I then heard that you need a dean connector to hook the battery, esc, and motor together but I'm not sure which one.

And finally, i'm not sure how to sure how to wire everything together correctly (connectors, correct order and anything else like that).

If anyone can help me out that would be greatly appreciated!
