3 Scx24s for the kids

We've gone through a handful of esx/rx units(the old style) I've converted one to the newer horizon style but it had issues immediately and I don't like the TX.

Only mod was brass wheel wieghts on the front only, and put proline premounted tsl sx on the c10.

Nothing to exciting in this thread, just thought some might benefit from our experience on what is reliable. Since we have 3 and they're young, reliability is the priority. My gut wants to throw more upgrades at them, but when each part is x3, it gets expensive.

I have not had such great luck with them myself. I bought my son a Gladiator for Christmas. He put maybe 6-8 packs through it when the motor fried. Same thing happened to my JL. I hate working on the tiny things.

of my 18 scx24's, i think probably 12 or so of them are running the HR motor and mount. with a V2 esc. SOLID setup, have not burnt one up yet

We've probably burnt 12+ motors.

The HR motor is a 15 min swap and so far has solved the issue.

I upgraded the one in the JL to HR or Injora, I dont remember which. Picked up a TRX4M last weekend at a swap meet. I like the size of that better.
