    Granite Grom Fan Options?

    My gf, a close friend of mine, and I all just walked out of our LHS yesterday with 3 groms (one of each color). We seriously got an hour or so run time on these little groms.

    TP Power motors. Please explain.

    So I now have a new Limitless V2 that needs a power plant. I started researching TP motors but I now have more questions before I hand over my cash and order it from overseas. It's by far the most I will have spent on a motor or any individual RC part in fact, so I want to ensure I get it right...

    I was bashing my Mojave the other day and the back case of the motor fell off due to the screws backing out. Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone know where I can get replacements/what size these are?

    Does higher kv mean more speed or not

    So I’m confused on how the motors work and the specifications and what they mean, for example I have a typhon 3s and the stock motor is 3200kv 3660 and I was suggested a 2650kv 4068 motor and was told it was faster, but the kv are lower so I wasn’t sure if it was faster or slower or had any clue...

    I want to make some Talion changes

    I plan on dumping my 160/1250 combo into it. Anyone know if it'll fit? Everything is stock and I don't want to make any mods other than esc, motor and esc.

    Am I insane for attempting this modular ESC/BEC/CapPack harness?

    I have a new Max6 on order with a 4895 1640kv motor for my aging Kraton 6S v4, but with a lot of heavy M2C upgrades. I'm adding even more goodness to my beast.
