Thanks to everyone for their input, seems like the best option is to ditch the nostalgia and try something new 😂 I really do appreciate the help, I will look into all options that have been recommended and make a calculated decision.

@Willy iine many thanks for the response and support, much appreciated. Happy New Year 🥳 I hope to post pictures of the finished project soon, work permitting!

Hi all, been away from the RC world for too long, started many moons ago with a Super Champ, then Boomerang, Clod Buster, I could go on, did swerve to the dark side occasionally with a ProCat and other well known models. Recently received an Egress Black Edition as a gift for a “Shelf Queen” project, whilst that was the idea, the young version of me wants to still set it up so it can be used, just in case, given that I’ve been away so long, my knowledge is no longer what it used to be, when you were young and absorbed everything like a sponge. I have gone for the recommended motor option of the 53779 GT motor, albeit, I would have been tempted with a brushless option, but given my lack of knowledge these days, played it safe. I am looking for help with options for a suitable ESC and RC gear options, I am a little older, so prefer a stick option, rather than wheel, still have fond memories of my Futuba Attack-R from the past, never let me down 🤔🙂 Any help or guidance would be very much appreciated, would prefer to be as “stock” as possible, although, I will not be painting the Egress black, as suggested 🥴
