So if manufacturers are creating ESC with blinky settings, surely there is a need for a basic ESC that is perfect for the beginner with no experience of RC racing that is simply plug and play?
However, I totally agree that the modern day brushless/LiPo kit makes is so much easier in terms of maintenance for anyone who goes racing. However 13.5 in GT12 even with blinky is in my view too fast for a complete beginner. These motors are faster than the good old days of 27T stock brushed motors.
We stopped running Touring Cars because they were getting too fast and leaving the track. Maybe those looking for outright speed should consider off-road because on-road requires much more finesse and far more control and is less forgiving too.
...when you have a driver pulling his car off the track because they are fed up of being hit all the time, we need to do something!
