So, I'm going with the Tiny Trainer after all. After my previous issues with the motor/ESC, I decided to go with a better motor and probably an equally cheap. But at least I'll have a different one of each so I can test and figure out what went wrong. I also bought a speedbuild kit from FT for the Tiny Trainer. But I'm thinking of using it as a template to cut out the parts on DTF for my very first build. Save the good parts for after I've built at least one lol. I'm assuming others have tried this as well, and hopefully they had good results.

I also got a 2s Turnigy 800 mAh battery, so I can see the difference in that and my 3s 1000 mAh, which may be too big for the TT, but at least this way I'll have a battery that fits either way. I'm not dead set on this ESC, I'm still looking into other options as well. Seems like there's either really cheap ESCs, or expensive, but not many in the middle. I got a set of xt-60 plugs, banana plugs and some heat shrink as well, since some bits here and there will need to be re-connectorized. So anyway, that's my setup of choice, we'll see how it goes.
