Hi, apart from being in the middle of a larger scale home build I also have a 1/8ish scale build in its infancy. I have a chassis which I will probably redesign and kyosho mad force axles and wheels. The visual result will change but I'm not sure to keep with the original plan to use the gx21 engine I have or to go electric. I have two 18v dewalt drill motors I'm aching to use for something and wonder if these would suffice. My ultimate aim is to build something that can go as fast or faster than a mad force so what would your recommendations be? Should I stick to the original plan and use nitro, or go electric and either use the motors I have (what speed controller suit two 18v brushed motors?) or whatever you fine folks suggest? Nitro and electric motors have their own merits, one probably has more than the other but people differ in opinion on this subject so it will be interesting to hear what you think. Many thanks
