Tug Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) 59 minutes ago, mond said: It's the one thing I dislike about that ESC. No switch. What were they thinking. Indeed, why not fit a plug-in switch harness? "Don't want a switch? That's fine, just remove it. Do want a switch? Leave the switch harness plugged in." Easy enough in theory.

losi8igh Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 If I go brushless I will probably get one of these to solder connectors with https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dremel-Versatip-2000-6-Soldering-Accessories/dp/B002LARRQW quite like the idea of a torch to solder with rather than a tip,might heat up quicker and be easier?

twisty Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 It would be a squeese into a Savvy,probably been done tho. I`m sure i heard/read they can deliver up to 10Hp somewhere,proper beastly looking can. Sadly,i`m thinking of letting my Castle Baja conversion go,got some big bills to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran my Savvy with a 780KV motor, only for a couple of packs, ran sweet as. I didn't leave it in there for fear of ripping the drivetrain apart every other run. Quite a nice fit really.
