Smile Thanks for the welcome

Hi all, just wanted to say a quick thankyou to those of you that I spoke to at the members meetup on 30th Sept. My son and I will be coming down again to watch but I will be looking to join in the near future. The wife has said I can buy a new buggy and I think I have narrowed it down to either the Durango DEX410V3 or the Associated B44.1. Going to be getting a savox servo as I run one in my SCTE and am very happy with how it performs.

All I need to decide on is a suitable motor and esc for whichever buggy I choose.

Was just wondering if someone can recommend a decent motor and esc to get. I know that the lower the turn then the faster the speed, but from what I understand, 1/10 buggies run 10.5, 13.5 and 17.5 turn classes or am I wrong. Have seen that some people also run a faster motor of between 5.5 to 8.5 so can someone clarify this for me and then let me know what most run at the club. Am prepared to spend around £200 to £250 for the motor and esc.

Also, can anyone explain what sort of transponder to get or what to look for when buying one.

Sorry if its a bit long this entry but I am a bit impatient and would rather start researching now so I know what I need/intend to buy as I do shifts and it may be a few weeks before I can get back down on another Sunday to ask in person.

Thanks again to those I spoke to (in particular newbie Sam and also Andy). Can't wait to get started and join you all down on the track.
