    Hey guys, I bought a Torment back in November and I want to upgrade to a LiPo battery and possibly a brushless set up, unless you guys think I should just upgrade to a different motor.

    It's just a basher but as it is now, I'm kind of bored with it.

    I don't know anything about this stuff except that it's fun!

    Max I'd like to spend is about $150-200 on the upgrades.

    i really, really like my thunder AC6 LiPo charger from hobbypartz.com. and i've picked up a few gens ace LiPos from them, too. i also ordered a hobbywing/xerun esc/motor combo from them for my scaler. i haven't been disappointed, yet.

    the charger, 2 LiPos will probably get you to $100. i expect a decent brushless ESC/motor combo will run you anywhere from $120-150.
