aeb4 you can find lrp sphere esc's on here and ebay for around £100 2nd hand in top condition and motors at half the origional price! You could pick up a motor and esc off here for around £150 i reckon

[Mike Hudson]

And my guess is you spent around £1200-300?

[aeb4]

is the lrp sphere the best brushless esc

is there any on here or ebay at the moment

[Lee]

one on ebay this morning for about 50 notes

[aeb4]

whos gone to brushless and if so what are you using?

[Mike Hudson]

http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9376 Jordan this one is going for £85 if you try get in there before its sold, I would say the majority of people have changed to brushless, I only know a handful of people that are still using brushed. Most people run either lrp, nosram or novak esc's and motors which are all fully compatible with each other

[aeb4]

will someone be able to help me fit it at batley

[Mike Hudson]

I'll be more happy to fit it for you and any soldering required if im there which i should be

[Medders]

I went brushless last year after unreliable brushed motor and would never go back. I picked up a first generation nosram system for £90 second hand i think. never had a problem since.

[Richard Lowe]

Don't forget some cells!

3 packs of decent club level cells can be had quite cheaply (The Orion 3300 Rocketpack retails at £22).

I'll be at Southport this Sunday but I'm sure there will be someone at Batley who can help you get an ESC installed

[aeb4]

is there any difference between a novak brushless 7.5l and a 7.5r. and what mah batteries should i get.

[Zedman]

In reply to AEB4's question, ended spending just over £600 bringing the on the road cost to about £1100 including the personal transponder I got today, its worth more than the family car gulp!

The 'L' motor has thinner windings and less torque, which is better for 2wd

The cells of mine you borrowed were 4200mah, which I can just about get 2 runs out of in 2wd with a 5.5. The 3300's I linked will be more than enough to last with a 7.5

are they not stick type batteries with a tamiya style connector. so would it still work with an lrp sphere?

[Richard Lowe]

They are but it doesn't take long to solder some tubes onto the wires. The stick pack will fit in your B4 fine too

[aeb4]

do you know where you can buy them from?

[aeb4]

what do the wires coming out of the back of a brushless motor do.
ps. im not coming to batley this sunday
