What would be better for off roading, this motor or the Dynamite 15-Turn Brushed Motor? In the Exceed RC Electric Infinitive EP rc truck

I would recommend the Dynamite for your truck. The Sport tuned is a great motor but is better suited for buggies. You will have more speed with the Dynamite as it is a modified, the Tamiya is a stock motor.

Brushless. However, this car is over powered and can be difficult to keep from flipping with the lipo batteries so the brushed will be perfectly fine and a ton of fun

It really comes down to if u plan on using it on other trucks. I have a small business with 3 1500 silverados and with the cortex I'm able to use the same chip on all my trucks. With a intake and superchip Runing on 91 octane or better I got a easy 30 hp and 2.9 mpg more

Get the 18v brushless. The 12v just doesn't have the balls to doWhat you're asking. It's a lightweight service driver. It's very good for what it's meant for.

I am unaware if this is the latest version but I purchased this in Dec. 2012 as a gift because this is the one requested because it has the brush-less motor. Apparently, that is the best one to get. We have had a good experience with it but we prepared to buy simple replacement parts because with something that fast you will have crashes and have to replace parts. But non have been too expensive yet.

This combo will make an unbelievable difference in a rustler. That brushless motor will seem like its too fast at first. Excellent upgrade. Add a lipo and you're likely to destroy your rustler and or somebody's shin. Http://YouTube.com/artincbydb for lots of awesome rc vids.

It should be brushless but make sure it has a Velineon motor and you will know for sure. I believe the brushed version had a Titan motor. It is a great truck. Since it is 2WD it rocks wheelies.

I owned the non fuel model before, couldnt handle my abuse, the fuel model I just bought and it's supposed to have more torque and be overall a better drill, brushless is bonus. Fuel is their top o' the line is my understanding.

Pro is better, it's not as heavy and it is built really well, brushless motor kicks way better and is much faster!

HI, the torque is according the ¨T¨ in brushed motors; less T: less torque more speed, more T: more torque less speed. This motor is 15T is for med-speed rather torque. Regards

Brushless motors have more power. Also you don't have to replace the brushes when they ware out over time.

Steve, the motor that comes in the brushless kit is more than enuff, trust me. The 45 will simply rocket off th ground!! Use a zippy flightmax 1800 lipo"$8.00" 80 gm. Thats all u need. Xheli for th tail motor. By th way, i lifted a 190gm.camera with power to spare wth ths setup.John

If you do have a brushed motor yank it and the esc and take them to your local hobby town USA and trade them in on a brushless setup you'll be impressed at the difference

Buy a brushless slash and it will be less expensive that way. This one is a brushed truck

Quick answer is Motor SIZE. Looks like you are comparing the brushless motor version with the brushed motor version. The brushless is 380, the brushed is 550 titan. Brushless is faster, more reliable, longer lasting, etc, hence, why it costs more. Not only will the motor sizes be different, but the "motor mounts" and the electronic speed controller "ESC" included will be as well. I bought the 550 brushed version, you will be pleased w/ it. If you take this hobby seriously, when the motor dies just buy a 550 sized brushless motor AND ESC. Happy hunting

Brushed motors require a break-in to keep from prematurely burning out. Look on YouTube for "titan 550 break-in" for different methods. Also be mindful that there is some maintenance with brushed motors. If you enjoy running your Stampede, by far your best bet is to upgrade to brushless Venison via Traxxas' power up plan. Brushless is totally the way to go.
