  1. I apologize if this has been asked before, I couldn't find the answer. The Bruiser manual indicates the body color is Tamiya blue X-4. I would like to use a TS spray can instead, but I see there are several tones of blue. Which is the closest to X-4?

    Here are the relevant TS blue colors:

    TS-15 Blue

    TS-50 Mica Blue

    TS-51 Racing Blue

    Thanks

  2. Hi,

    I have a Blitzer beetle with a stock 540 motor, which I would like to replace with something more powerful. The manual recommends the Sports-tuned Mabuchi motor. However, I am greedy and would like more power. On the other hand, I understand that over-powering the car may destroy the gears and damage the the TEU-101BK speed controller.

    What is the strongest motor that I can use with this setup?

    Also, what does "T" or "Turn" mean when describing a motor? For example 23T motor, etc. I understand that the smaller this figure, the more powerful the engine? Is there anywhere in this site (or the Web) that compares electric car engines and motor-esc setups?

    Thank you in advance,

  3. Thank you people for your answers. I would like to ask another question if I may.

    How are radio sets (for cars and boats, not planes) rated? Is 75 better than 27? I got a 75 thinking it was the best but experience control jitter/loss at 15 meters (45 feet)!

    Thanks again,

    Beetleman
