FusionPro Mini16 in 1/10

A ton of stock escs on crawlers are rebranded hobbywing. These are too just with some changes that spektrum added.

Doesn't answer the question. Lots of companies outsource things.

From what I read, the spectrum 2 in 1 (and maybe more) is just rebranded hw stuff. Was just curious if that was misinformation or not. But col confirmed it.

Does this offer the same software adjustability?? Couldn't find any info on that from their site
 
Looks like no aux wire for on the fly drag brake adjustments, and 1 or 2 fewer program options on the spectrum version.

Typical Horizon and their lack of info. I think the 1/10 Spektrum 2 in 1 uses a different programmer and it has different options than the Fusion Pro, so maybe it is the same story with the 1/16? I did notice the Spektrum does not have the extra connector that the Hobbywing mini has and it doesnt have whatever components are heatshrinked on the power leads. Also has the different power connector.
 
Yes, Hobbywing manufactures many Spektrum ESCs and other electronics. Spektrum often uses Hobbywing ESCs, especially for their "Firma" series. Some users have even found that Spektrum ESC program boxes are Hobbywing boxes. Hobbywing's website also mentions that they are an early company in China focusing on high-power-density brushless power systems.
 
Looks like the Spectrum unit does not have these 2 features:

11. RPM Decrease Rate: This refers to the speed of rpm change when reducing the throttle (from high to low throttle) in the normal mode. The higher the value, the faster the change. If you would like to have a "coasting" feeling when the throttle is reduced, like a normal brushless system, this value needs to be set low. Note: this parameter is only valid for normal running mode.

13. Neutral Range: Some radios will have a larger neutral range. If you have difficulties calibrating the neutral position increase the value
 
The RPM decrease rate is something I like so I guess its a good thing I did not jump on it.
 
Can someone help me out with a link to a pion or 2? I have a couple of these that I am putting in a light 1/10 comp rig, my Losi mini lmt, and my MRC, which I have had forever. I cannot find the pinions or adapter sleeves to run full size. I have about 10 now, and I am just ready to get these on the rocks and test them out.

Thanks in advance!!
 
Here's the adapter you need for a standard pinion to fit. I tried several of the more common 2mm adapters and drilling them out to 2.3mm. I could get pretty close to true but not nearly as good as the properly made and sized adapter.

There are plenty of 48p pinions available for the 2.3mm shaft if you want to swap to those gears. I wanted to stay 32p.

That's what I needed. I did see it at the beginning of this thread but I guess I ignored it and was looking for something easier. Thanks again.
 
I've ordered those adapter sleeves from Plaza Japan and few times now and no issues with fast shipping. I think that adapter sleeve comes with some 380 motors they sell as well. 2 sleeves and a motor for like $9 i think
