So what all motors has everybody tired in their blizzards? And what kind of results have they had?

Anybody currently running brushless? If so what?

I have been using a 19 x 1 Chameleon and an 11 x 2 Raven which both worked really well. I didn't realise that buggy motors are usually only rated up to 9.6 volts so when I started using 3s LiPo packs they both burnt out. The Blizzard looked great, though, trailing smoke across the snow! Went really fast too but not for long :rolleyes:

Just waiting for a C4 Big Stick brushless to arrive to see how that goes with the LiPos

I'd sure love to see my blizzard ripping around with a brushless. When the stock motor feels like not enough I plan to throw in a 19t first and run that, I don't know if I could control it going to much faster anyhow.

It seems as though you might be able to get good control up to about 30mph+, but only with brake tuning and less nose-heaviness.
