The motor can looks very similar to Novak doesn't it.

How come there's no 5.5T Danny? Seems an odd wind to miss out

Is it just a coincidence that the motors look exactly the same as Novak ones, the ESC spec sounds similar [if not, exactly the same] and it's foot print is only 1mm smaller?

Looks good though!

Honestly im not to sure why they left that one out. Just had the 6.5 up an down the road an it seems pretty good to me, very smooth which i like.

guess the proof will be in the pudding at the weekend

Ran mine in my TC (4.5) and 2wd (6.5) last week and was well impressed! Bloomers had a go with the TC and he too loved he feel and speed of it. Cant wait for them to become BRCA approved, I think they may well become popular then...............especially at the price they are at.

Thumbs up I got mine today!!

Thanks to Dms mine arrived today. My B4 is still in bits and needing a good clean. Now deliberating to wait for a vortex shell or heat up my unpainted shell. Who has done this before, How much can i stretch it- enough to get the speedo under?

Got one to play with as well

Am recovering well after having fallen off my chair when I checked out the price.

No serious damage to me or my wallet - The combo price is amazing at £134.99 RRP. Yeah - that's right a 6.5T motor AND ESC - complete with cooling fan atop the ESC.

Can't wait to get it installed and for it to be homologated.

No the esc for the Kv rated sensorless motors is different to the sensored speedo for 3.5 to 13.5 sensored motors

On overall performance the Sphere (just) but it is nearly twice the price, but on value for money and "very good" performance the Losi all the way

Hi Chaps, I bought one of these combos last week, a 6.5 sensored system and when I tried to use it at the weekend, I could not get it to work. Me and Craig Harris set it up numerous times, sometimes it would take the calibration and sometimes it would'nt. When it did take the setup calibration and we thought it was fine, it would run for a second or two then just stop, if I let go of the throttle stick for a few seconds it would then go again, then stop after another second or so, and thats it! One point is though, that it didnt seem to stop if i was holding the car without the wheels on the floor.

Anyone got any ideas? I dont want to send it back and look like an idiot lol.

Thanks for any help guys.
