Brushless Help!

[Marvin]

What I need to know is, what sort of Brushless motor is closest to a Tamiya Silver Can? I'm going to be racing in a class where there is a silver can motor limit, but I can't be arsed to keep replacing the motors as they wear out so really would like to run brushless. I was thinking about 17.5T as 21.5 seems to be for crawlers which is probably too slow.

Cheers

21.5 probably would be around the right sort of speed
17.5 is closer to 27t brushed than a silver can

just my opinion here by the way

yer, 21.5 would be closer m8 as some clubs run 17.5 s bl with 27t brushed and apperently there on par so 21.5 definately sounds closer to a silver can.:D

If you are planning to run in a silver can class, i would suggest checking whether they will allow you to compete with a brushless motor. You can purchase a lot of silver cans for the price of a brushless system!
