As for kit im so out of touch so happy to go on recommendations... i was recommended by the club to go for a 7.5 motor - but which one ??? speed controllers too - were do i start ?? oh and the transmitters-all digital and lots of ' fiddling ' that can be done - sounds old school but i sort of want to plug it in - turn it on and get going not fiddle with speed controller / motor settings pretending to be lewis hamilton as im also starting off from the beginning and getting all kit in one go i dont want to spend too much right out of the box, id prefer to get stuf that can get me going - and compete then upgrade the odd bits when i need to, or perhaps buy second hand ? |
I'm not an expert, but I'd say a speed controller that can cope with a 6.5t motor, that way you have a little bit of room for improvement should you ever need it.
A quick look on Modelsport brings up this ESC

And then this Speed Passion 7.5t Brushless motor

You'll also want 2.4ghz transmitter/receiver as well (so you don't need crystals).
EDIT: and a servo, I've just got this...
