Do you have to run a brushless tail motor w/thi kit

I think that is necessary. I didn't and all it did was 360s when it was at close to full throttle.

I believe you do. I tried it with just the main and the brush (regular) motor could not stabilize the heli.

The tail rotor does work. So I'm assuming it has a motor. Its a really fun device.

No, you have to buy engines, launch pads, wadding, etc. I took the kit down to our local hobby store and had them tell me what all I needed to actually launch these.

Upgrading the battery and tail rotor is huge some weight in the nose helps. If you fly it often then you will want to put in a little bigger tail motor wl 913/f 45 are good choices.

It is a Kit that you have to mount. I liked it. You will need to buy a motor, servo and radio control to start it.

Yes you can, you just have to purchase the motor the motor mount and the battery

Nope, I run mine with the engine off (F-250 6.0l diesel). Just remember tho it's about a 4 amp draw so keep a periodic eye on the juice left in the battery.

you can use it with just the motor but if your going to use it with the stock speed control that it comes with it you can only run 2s lipo

This kit for the 9053 does not include the tail rotor motor. You can purchase the whole tail unit with motor, but no tail rotor blade, here on Amazon. Price runs 10.00 to 12.00 USD with shipping and handling.

Yup...make sure you get the right kv motor though and use proper gearing to ensure no overheating of the esc or motor

Yes you may; however, keep in mind these motors include a starter winding which may be defective.

According to the Festool info it does not have a brushless motor. Having said that, I've used tools a ton and the only tools I've ever had to change brushes on are a couple of old 1970s routers I bought used. The Festool CSX is smooth as silk when running

Brushless motors have more power. Also you don't have to replace the brushes when they ware out over time.

You must first have a brushless motor already in your Slash, which sounds like you do. You will also have to solder all the connectors, some of which will come separately. My advice is to speak with or email Dan at Kershaw designs. He sells this unit in a kit and can solder the right connectors for you. He can give you all the options. This ESC can do from 2s to 4s, and you must make sure your motor can handle what you decide to throw at it.

Only if your engine is NOT computer controlled..... (has a carb.......not TBI or EFI)

I'm not sure what your asking but what I have is that replacement kit with no motor however due to a tree I have the tail motor because it broke off. I hope this the correct answer. wade J.

You do need the following, A soldering or heat shrink to connect the esc to the batteryYou need a usb programer, if u want an easy way to program the esc without have to use the manual wayIf your upgrading from brushed to brushless, you gonna need to change pinion gear and spur gear to different size. Otherwise the esc will get hot and u have to wait for it to cool down.Lastly u need some type connector between esc and battery, i recommend ec5 connector for better performance
