i have a Traxxas Bandit XL-5 and i was wondering how to swap the engine and ESC to brushless, so just a video or tutorial on how to change the motor will help
thanksCan someone please tell me how to change the engine on an electric RC car?The Traxxas website should have some product specifications with the car's parts diagram to show you how the motor and ESC is installed, just use that as a guide to disassemble the current setup and then go in reverse by installing the brushless setup - do note that the location of the ESC may not be exactly matching the geometry of your new ESC and as for the motor, make sure that the case holes match up to the mounting holes of the car.

If you are really not confident in doing it yourself, then take it your local r/c hobby shop and ask the staff for asssistance
