I have seen that a few have themand Im thinking of getting one just because

Few Qs

Could I run a LRp sxx TC and what motor? does it have to be a 550?
Does it need a RX8?
Motor choices are Tekin Pro 4 4600kv or the SC4X 4.5T
HInts/tips is there a lot of upgrades needed/ available?

Thanks

i ran the rx8 with the 4pole redline 540sct 3300kv motor in mine,i ran it for over 20mins,the heat read out never went over 3,it goes up to 10,someone i know runs a 550 motor 5.5 on a normal 1/10 spec speedo and struggled to do 6 mins before it shut down,

you dont need the rx8 but its top notch and you can be asured it wont let you down:thumbsup:the combo was super smooth but still quick

Thrashing the car for photos I managed to melt the wires on my 10th ESC in around 30 seconds from cold. I wish that were an exaggeration, as I had to drive home 45 minutes to re-solder.

I have used the RX8 since then and never had a problem even with no fan (I broke it!). I've run both Tekin 540 motors and the older 550 Tekin SCT motor, not the new 4 pole. I think I prefered the 540 motors as they were lighter and less powerful which made it easier for my poor skills.
I won the opening round of the 2011 Short Course national series with an RX8 and Tekin redline 6.5 540 motor.
