hi i jus bought motor stage 2 and i was wonderin wut color to use i usually jus ride aorund house and when the snow goes away i will us it in the road i want the one with best speed but still be able to get aroun turns and corners i also herd that the metal piece that cmae with s2 upgrade is not needed jus to use the plastic one is this true? thanks

i would use the red motor :nod: its got good speed and good turning. Do not throw away the metal piece. It's called a heat sink. Keep your motor from overheating, longer run time, and more power.

Definitely use the heat sink it saves your motor

let your motor rest 20 minutes after using it for 15 :)

The metal motor mount does nothing. I know people who are running extremely hot motors with the stock motor holder with 0 problems. Use the Stage 2 red.

Not needed.

i agree.
i dont rest my motor.
with the lithium batteries i can run it full speed for up to 45 minutes at a time before the car starts to significantly slow.
no problems
