Hi just wondering what's best esc for truck as was a bit short of power last weekend. Got 5.5 motor 550 think it's lrp. And running it on hobbywing sct 120amp sensored. So I was interested to no if there was something fast but not stupid hi tec settings on it.

I ran the hobbywing SCT Pro for 2 years, I have now put my Tekin RX8 in there, it is hands down a lot smoother and more powerful than the hobbywing

RX8 is awesome, not cheap but worth the money. Or just get a TrackStar 4turn Motor off hobbyking (about £35), that thing is fast. A chap last weekend was running the Trackstar with the ESC you have, its crazy fast if you can drive!!

Hi ok I will have a look for a rx8 didn't think the hobbywing went below 5 turn. At Coventry I just lacked the power to do the double jump and I didn't want to over gear it as then you get he problems I maxed the timing on it but didn't seem to make a lot of difference in the speed there was a lot of lose dust. I am going west Bridgeford this Sunday so I will give a go there see if it's any different.

Thanks

Ive no idea what the motor limit is, but his ran the motor fine and temps were OK.

I ran the RX8 with a TEKIN motor and I thought I didnt have the power for the double, turns out I just wasnt doing it right. I was watching the Durangos flying over it lap after lap and realized it was my technique not the power. Changed my technique and was clearing it consistently after, landing and control mid air needs more work LOL. (this was my first proper race and first time on the dirt)

I doubt if changing your speedo will have much affect on the speed. I have run the RX8 and the Hobbywing back to back with the same motor fitted and could not really tell any difference. The Hobbywing speedo is very good indeed and as most people know they also make a lot of the branded speedos out there.

I would look more to the settings and the motor first as this will save you a bit of cash!
