Its funny, although price is the all important factor at the moment, when you do see a product that much cheaper you think "what doesn't it do" - happy to hear it will cover everything and will be competative to boot - perfect!

I think i will order one of these shortly.

Will the new ones i see coming late June be replacing the XTREME Stock version or are they for different applications i.e. mod?

Although not really the right thread (which i apolgise for hijacking!) but how do the Hobbywing motors fare? I would be going for the 21.5t - are the grey and blue exactly the same spec?

Cheers
Hi Chris,
The grey and blue motors are exactly the same. They are quite smooth motors (similar to the SP's), and they also don't have adjustable endbell timing.

Motor wise, I'm still a big fan of the X12's for TC, super amount of low down torque, and with the ESC settings it's possible to pretty much do everything in terms of boost and turbo. Might take a while to find settings your happy with, but once there it's pretty easy to stay on top of it all

I can honestly say you won't lack for power against any of the current LRP's. Just make sure you get a program box at the same time as the ESC, so you can update the firmware.

I will say it's quite interesting being based the other side of the world (yes, I'm in china!), as I get to regularly chat with the HW team out here, there are some good new developments on the horizon, that much I can say. Theres a small possibility I might get to check out a v3 this weekend...
