My son has the h16gt with the gps. I swapped in a 35amp esc (hobbywing) from an LCracing car and a surpass brushless motor. The pinion did not fit the new motor so I had another 12T pinion that came with an scx10 transmission I picked up from Amazon in the spare parts bin. Now it’s a rocket and the first thing he broke was the rear shock tower and the cap on the shock. I was having trouble finding parts to repair the shock but I will just get a set from the 1/14. I did use the aluminum shock towers but haven’t put them to the test yet. The towers did not come with screws to fasten the body posts. Thanks for the information.

Yes esc and Motor I think will be my next upgrade. I've been looking at the hobbywing 10bl60 or even 10bl120. Motor I'm struggling abit as to what to go with. For the shocks next time I'll get the 14scale ones too. I see alot of people talk about the yeah racing ones too and springs

I did a cheap surpass hobby 2845 3800kv and the esc I pulled from my lc racing car. It’s a rebranded 35a hobbywing. A 10bl60 would do great but overkill. Our little hypergo is a rocket on 2s, haven’t upgraded diffs or the spur so we are not trying 3s yet. My son has been jumping this car and that’s how he broke the shock tower, I found out he did not have the body on.

@@yorkshire_mickif you have the brushless system already I would stick with it, or just upgrade the esc. A new motor would require a 32p 12t pinion, at least that’s what was in ours. The bore size on the new motor was 3mm, the stock pinion had a much smaller bore diameter.

[@yorkshire_mick]

Yes that's it. I've not done motor yet as it does go well. I use 2&3s and like your son I like to find biggest jumps. Usually skateparks. The ESC I think will be good. Know alot of guys using that one. Might grab a surpass motor just to play with

I find if I'm taking apart something which has a lot of parts is to take photos as you go for reference.
