Noj Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 The wp8 ESC is a good piece of kit for the money, couple it with a tenshock can of 4400-4600kv on your 2s packs and she will fly. Look at funshobby as they do good combo deals. Are u racing or just bashing? If racing, a sensored set up will be beneficial as it will run smoother at low speeds (the sensors eliminate cogging). I have no experience of the 150a ESC. Feel free to read the scte build threads on the forum as they are packed with useful info about hop ups, mods etc. Still a low volume truck on MSUK, despite their proven ability over a slash.

mmt Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 hi noj thanks for the reply i will be racing the scte and doing track days with it at herts nitro track i am used to racing 1/10 2wd st trucks and buggys and a few of my friends have just got the ten scte so got one to and the esc and motors for sc trucks sort of stumped me a bit lol is the wpsc8 sensored if so i will get that one and the 4400kv motor thanks again noj have a good day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmt Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 i am also looking at the tenshock sc411 sensored motor would this be better for racing then the tenshock sc401 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 The Wpsc8 isn't sensored, however, they do the Xerun SCT pro 120a, splash proof (it is blue in colour). Pair this with the tenshock sc411 can in your desired kV and voila, a reliable and powerful sensored system. Hth and happy racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmt Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 thank you noj for the replys i am going to order the ts sc411 4600kv and the xerun sct pro 120amp esc would you know what sort of run times i would avarage with this setup on a large fast track with my nano-tech 5300 50-100c 2s lipos thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 You need the advice of A.J. for that, as he raced his ten last year; I merely bash mine (the v1 rtr) on stock electrics currently. I think you will be fine for runtimes, using a fresh pack each race, but equally I could be talking rubbish...not unknown lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzabruv105 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 How long are your race times mate. If 5 min races you should get two races out of those packs but I would top up between races if I were you and you may even squeeze three races out. I have that tenshock and its a fantastic motor for the price. Coupled it to tge xerun sct pro esc and very very happy with it. Would love to race mine but can't find anywhere that races them so got a b44.2 to race locally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I used to use 2100-2300mah per 5min race, that was with the SC411 4600kv with a 14t pinion, of course this changes as per track/conditions/driving style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmt Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 hi thanks for the replys the racing will be 5 mins heats and 10 mins finals as far as i know would it be an idea to get the nano-tech 6600 65-130c 2s cells for racing ? the track will be herts nitro and i used to race 1/10 tc cars and 1/10 2wd st trucks so am quite smooth with the trigger finger lol i ran the scte with the 411sc and the sct pro esc and i got around 8-9 mins out of my 5300 running a 15 tooth pinion gear and the kit 40 tooth spur gear is that time about normal ? thanks for any info have a good weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazzabruv105 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 What days do they race SCT's at herts mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 I would get 2 lipo pack just in case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopeydog Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Wow 10 minute finals! My club ran 7 minute finals and even then a 6000 Lipo would hit Lipo cut on the lap after the race finished. I'd be stuffed with 10 minutes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
