As one of the first models released by Traxxas, the Stampede has been a popular choice for RC enthusiasts for many years. The first-generation Stampede came with a brushed motor, which can be upgraded to a brushless motor for improved performance. A brushless motor is more efficient than a brushed motor, meaning it will provide more power and speed while using less battery power. It also runs cooler than a brushed motor, which can extend its lifespan.
There are many different brushless motor upgrade kits available for the first-generation Stampede. Some of the most popular kits include the Traxxas Velineon 3500 Brushless Motor System, the Castle Creations Sidewinder SCT Brushless System, and the Hobbywing QuicRun 10BL120 Brushless System. These kits typically include everything you need to upgrade your Stampede to brushless power, including the motor, ESC, and mounting hardware.
