I was just gonna get the spektrum . Cheap and plug and play . I plan on just bashing it . Just like the idea of more power . Thank you guys for your input . Any recommendations on a mount to fit the 1100kv ?
I appreciate your opinion . The 6s is fine as is , just want more power lol always want more power !!!!!!I always liked the Bronze colored Fel body best. Nice Lighting.
You just need to find the motor length dimenison of what you plan to be using. Making sure when mounted at the stock left side of the chassis, that the end of the motor won't hit the Steering Belcrank. The Stocker motor is I believe 74mm long. See how much more room to spare that you have. Measure the distance distance between the motor mount and the Steering belcrank first, on your felony, and compare it to your chosen Motor(s). If too long, you will have to make it a right hand side motor. A much bigger task.
There are many 8s motors I think that will fit in the stock location. I personally would stay away from the Spektrum stuff. Mostly the ESC's. But hey its your wallet. I feel 8s running is best for Dedicated Speed running, and not bashing or drifting.
My 2 cents.
Buying that next big 8s setup before even dialing in your current ESC makes no sense. Learn more about ESC settings. ESC can provide more or less to suit your driving style. You seem to be doing things backwards there. IMHO.
I’ve swapped gears before lol what’s there to tune on a spektrum system “ punch settings “ brake “ settings ? As far as I know that’s about it . Putting a bigger system is just common power to weight ratio , I’m only looking for answers if the spektrum 8s sytem is plug and play ….. I could turn up esc settings and put a bigger gear in and sit on the side lines for cool down time , or just 8s and be done …… makes sense to me . In my opinion . Not my first rc car , just my first felony lolBuying that next big 8s setup before even dialing in your current ESC makes no sense. Learn more about ESC settings. ESC can provide more or less to suit your driving style. You seem to be doing things backwards there. IMHO.
Too quick to change out the ESC and motor, but never took the time to understand them and tuning what you have there already.
You are not alone, many just jump to more $$ setups. Never even considering a simple $14.00 pinion gear change. Rather spending another $300.-400. in an ESC combo before even knowing how to swap out a Pinion gear.
Just all because the next guy has that 8s motor.. Only because it looks bad ass and has MO Powa.
Overpowered platforms are not all that. Just cost more and are super heavy.
Unless there is a distinct need for it. (Speed run )
If you put Powerhobby Grippers on there you have a problem with the gearing on the rear diff unless you changed it. The stock Felony tires are taller in the rear. If you go down from 107mm to 100mm they're spinning faster than the fronts. Either stick to rear Felony Hoons or install a GP5 diff in the rear. Otherwise you’re going to have pretty crappy handling and your center diff will overheat and eventually fail.
I was chatting with a guy on YouTube that dropped a Spektrum 8s system in his Felony and it was plug and play. I guess the 1250kv is a 49 series motor and that'll fit any any 6s Arrma (please don't quote me on that though) It was literally smoking the tires
If I ever upgrade the system in my 8s Outcast, I'm putting the old system straight into my Felony, because why the freak not? I see what you're trying to do here OP 
Yep mine rubbed the paint off the top of the wheel wells, but they were from Choons which have a slightly higher tyre wall, not sure if the Hoons would have done that.
And for that 1100kv what u put for the spur gear
That depends on your speed goals.
