Esc and Motor

[h0m3sy]

What is everyone using for esc and motor? I'm thinking of getting a 1/8th electric car as our local club is allowing these cars to run alongside the nitro's. Any help or advice much appreciated.

I use a Hobbywing 80a and a 2200kv motor on 4s in my losi 8 and it goes very well!

If your feeling flush the Tekin RX8 and a 1700/1900kv motor is a nice combo

There are loads of Hobbywing combos on eBay or giantcod, go for the 120a of you can.

As above, the XErun system by hobbywing is fantastic value for money. I ran this system all of last season and it never missed a beat.

Currently just £113 delivered on eBay, and they usually arrive in under a week.

Has or does anyone run the LRP combo in their car?

I've not seen the LRP running yet, Radio Race Car magazine did a review of it an issue or 2 ago, was very favorable towards it.

I've seen Tekin systems run more than any other though.

Better to pay £10 for sensored XErun?

Yes, I read that review, it's what swayed it for me actually.

Hello All,

I used the LRP system in my DEX408 at the Truggy/Electric 8th scale nationals

it ran perfectly reliably the was really smooth to drive, quite useful with electric 8th scale on dirt

I ran the ix8 speedo and the 2000kv motor.

I use the standard bullet connectors on the speedo, zero issue with those too
