What powers your SCX10?

I burn through 20t and 27t Axial motors.
Stock esc with Castle BEC @7.4
Full Robinson Racing hardened gear tranny with 10/56 32p gears, hardened 5mm shafts in an AL case
Axial over/under gears in Wraith axles
 
I was running 35T Tekin pros with HH BR-XL esc. Tired of wearing out brushes and commutators so I just switched both of my Wraiths and my SCX10 to Tekin 13.5 sensored redlines and MMP escs. In one of my Wraiths I am running a 3100kv roc412. I waterproofed everything with corrosion x. All I can say is wow. So much torque, motors barely get hot geared 5:1. Only running brushed motors now in my Mantis XR10 and My 1/10 Summit. Doubt I will go back to brushed in my trail rigs. The Honcho rips heads open now!

Trail Honcho with Nissan Frontier front cab
MIP driveshafts
RC4wd trans gears
56t RR Spur (32 pitch)
11t RC4wd pinion
Tekin 13.5 Redline Sensored
MMP ESC in smart sense mode (CHEAT not enabled)
3 cell 4200mah 30c lipo
 
Pulled the brushless out and went back to an ae2 and a Team Brood 27t crawler motor. Has just about the same wheels speed and torque but ts is a lot smoother. Steel tranny gears, rear underdrive gears, running 1.9 super swamper xls
 
I am looking for something to replace my current setup
Current:
ESC: Nocak Rooster Crawler 400 amp
Battery: 2s 30c 4000mah
Motor: Tekin 35t

I am really wanting another ESC like the Rooster (to bad they quit making them), I was hoping to find something similar. The only problem I've had with it is that it's getting old. Any ideas? I really like the high amps, and drag brake. I plan to stay away from the FX-R or anything under 300 amps really. Ideas?
 
Tekin FXR, stock motor/gears. It's not bad, but could be better in some ways. I'm just doing light backyard trailing. No concerns about speed or maximum strength for if it gets stuck.

I've got a Goat 3S/21.5 combo I could chuck in it. Any thoughts?
 
Zippy 2s 3700 lipo's, Plenty of power and LIGHT!!!
Standard Axial AE-2 esc
Axial 27t motor
 
Re: Please list your SCX10 Motor, Battery, and ESC here!

2 Hamsters in a wheel power my scx10. And 1 hamster turns the wheels.
 
I have a honcho: Stock electronics- esc moved to a different spot; full light kit with turn signals and brake lights; recon g6 light bar on roof; 5000 mah nimh. I think the stock electronics are good for now- I will probably get a different motor eventually. I nimh works fine. I could move up to lipo, but why not when I have a perfectly good battery?
 
Well seeing as I now have other than stock parts I can say something here....

SCX10
Stock 27 turn Axial motor
Usually Onyx 2S LiPo 25C 4000 or 5000 mAh, sometimes I bust out the 3S 25C 5000 mAh if I plan to be on a long journey
Stock ESC AE-5
Stock Receiver AR-3
CC BEC 10A set to 6.0V
Savox 0231MG Servo
HD Gears in front
HD Underdrive in rear
Stock Spur
9T Pinion
1.9" BFGs

This gives me a great control of the throttle on 2S and allows for a realistic wheel speed and when I throw in the 3S it still is faster than I can walk.
