Hey guys, so it looks like my (stock) motor or esc has died on my arrma granite 4x4 mega. Its behaving like its got a flat battery even when it has got a fully charged 2s lipo in. so i guess now is the time to upgrade to brushless. I have done a lot of reading online and it would seem the Hobbywing EZrun Max 10 sct with 3660 3200kv motor is the way to go. Im thinking the 120a rating on the esc means it will be less prone to over heating.

Im guessing i should slip the 17t pinion gear in as well. Can I leave the plastic stock spur gear as it is? or should this be changed as well to cope with the power of brushless? does anyone know what kind of speeds i can expect with this esc and motor combo and 17t pinion? im hoping i can get closer to the 30mph stated on the box
I perhaps should mention that i will be running 2s lipos mainly with a few nimh that i bought when i first got the granite. Maybe i will want to run 3s in the future but im in no rush, im still learning.
thanks in advance for any and all feed back, i very much appreciate it
