    VRD Stubby Kit Motor and Gearing

    I am leaning towards eventually removing the Fusion Pro in my VRD Carbon and installing a stubby kit with short Revolver motor and AM32 ESC. This is just to get the discussion started as I have not even painted my Stance body nor have I gotten the truck out on the rocks or trails at this point...

    What's your current go motor on a scx24?

    For this last Christmas, I picked up couple scx24s, and I've been letting the kids upgrade them with some brass to lower the CoG. I know the motors, and servos tend to die when weight is added. So in preparation for the eventually that something is likely to fail, I've started looking at a...

    Any new options for Wraith Spawn ESC

    My son just smoked out the stock ESC on a brand new (like 15 min runtime) Wraith Spawn 2.2. Looking for durable, reliable options that are fairly budget-friendly. The Hobby shop sold a 3s with it saying it would run it no problem, but now I'm seeing that with a 3s, you need an external BEC? Any...

    Newbe with C24

    Hi, I have been messing around with a C24 RTR. I have ordered a brushless motor and esc combo to get some speed! Question is, I will need to by a new radio right? One that would hook up to the ESC etc? I was thinking the GT3C unless there is something better for the money. Thanks guys!

    Newbie with a popped ESC cap, are other components affected?

    Hey guys, i just started into this hobby grade crawlers and bought myself an ESC. I am also fairly new to 'electronics'. I forgot to put a heat shrink on my ESC and Motor bullet connectors and they were touching each other when I was running the crawler. This caused a spark between the...

    Sanity check my upgrade plan

    I have an old Wraith 2.2 that's been dead in a closet for 4-5 years and I recently got working again. I was still on the stock electronics but I had worked through replacing a lot of the linkage and suspension with metal, by way of breaking something plastic every single time I took it out. As...

    Spektrum smart battery to non-smart esc

    I have a spektrum smart battery and charger combo, and am wanting to connect it to my crawler which does not have a smart esc, so I bought IC3 connectors to attach to the esc. I realized this would defeat the purpose of the "smart" features as I would not be able to connect the microchip to the...

    FlySky BS6 Receiver voltage on TRX-4

    Hey everyone, I recently decided to put an old hobbywing ezrun brushless system in my TRX-4, out of an older car from back before everyone used 2.4Ghz and instead had crystals in their transmitter and receiver. What I didn't realize when I did this is that those old esc's put more than the...

I picked up an Everest 10 from Redcat and that became my kids' truck soon after I picked up a Gen 8 and more recently the Blackout sc pro (which has been super f-ing fun). I have upgraded and modded both the...

Bought a Hobbywing XERUN AXE540 1800kv motor and ESC combo to put in but just wondering with the headlights and light bar on the RTR originally being wired direct in to the original ESC, whats the best way to wire them in with the...

    What determines ESC starting speed?

    I have a need for an ESC (with or without BEC or brake) that has the lowest starting speed in forward and reverse. Most of the ESC's that i have start at hundreds and even thousands of rpms. I assume this depends on the motor load and other factors, so... 1. Are there any published data or...

    Looks like my stock trx 4 XL-5HV is burnt out. Was doing some climbing with it and it eventually gave out. Took the body off and saw smoke coming out the esc by the wires. I was running a Gens Ace 5000 mAh 3S 50c battery. Battery was at about 73% (11.94V) when this happened. Both the motor...
