I bought an Element Gatekeeper crawler a few weeks back and have already replaced the RTR brushed motor and ESC with a Hobbywing Fusion Pro 2300kv motor/esc combo.
Now I have the Reddy 21-turn motor and corresponding ESC sitting on my shelf. Frankly, I thought it was pretty good stuff; the Hobbywing is clearly superior in every way. Worth $150? I don't know. Not a "comps" guy, so the only person I need to impress is me.
Nevertheless, I have Injora beadlocks with brass inserts, some brass wheel weights and 12mm hub extenders (also brass) coming to replace the light stockers. Hoping to get the thing to stay on it's feet.
I wonder if any fathers of teenage girls have tried fitting their daughters with brass shoes to keep them upright, LOL?
Anyway, I'll have a bunch of parts laying about. Do I sell them? Keep them for posterity? Give them away?
I kept all the airplane stuff I've collected over the years. Even for birds I've crashed, if I get lucky enough to find some old version and buy it again I'll have spares, LOL.
