Nickarla Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Or not. That is a large, general thread. Specific brushless motor/ESC requests yield this thread which doesn’t offer any discussions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isle of Wight Basher Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) The standard brushless set up is more than enough for this car, https://www.modelsport.co.uk/etronix-photon-2-1w-system-with-13-0r-2950kv-motor-45a-esc/rc-car-products/383631 However I'd go these https://www.modelsport.co.uk/hobbywing-quicrun-wp-10bl60-bl-esc/rc-car-products/382833 and https://www.modelsport.co.uk/etronix-photon-2-1-sensorless-1-10-13r-2950kv-motor/rc-car-products/385714 As for upgrades some will say you need the metal prop-shaft https://www.modelsport.co.uk/0/rc-car-products/406604 but I ran mine fine with that motor for many runs without issue, I did fit one in the end and found it showed significant signs of wear in a short time. I'm not saying the plastic one won't break but I'd suggest either get spare plastic ones or a metal one from another manufacturer.

Nickarla Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 The metal shaft showed signs of wear? How come? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
