Brushless 4811kv, 25A ESC, 2S-1300mAh LIPO. (Do not recommend using a 3S or 4S, motor/ecs need upgrading if you want more power) It’s from hobbyking before shipping, and is great bang for it’s buck. It’s mostly plastic, which makes it economic, it’s not for serious bashing, as the plastic parts will break, but it’s still great fun.
