lobsterThe vehicle is quite large so the more power the better! The two brushed motors offer a better price point to those who cannot jump right into a brushless monster truck.
lobsterBrushless motors are the latest thing in electronic motors so they tend to be more expensive. To keep the price down on a big entry level monster truck, Traxxas kept the double brushed setup that's powered the E-MAXX for years. Brushed or brushless, you won't be disappointed and can upgrade the drivetrain later through either the Traxxas upgrade program or a competitor's motor/ESC system.
