Well I didnt just pick it up but I just ordered it for my T3. Castle Creations sidewinder SV3 SCT edition 3800kv. Wow thats a mouthful heh. Now Im going to need a lipo or 2. Can anyone recommend some decent lipos that wont break the bank. I will also need to pick up a lipo charger but I'm more worried about finding some lipos that will fit nicely. Any tips/ suggestions are greatly appreciated .
SMC has some really good lipos. I use their shorty 2S lipo for racing my RC10T. There lipos are a little more then the Hobbyking packs but much cheaper then the other name brand packs.
I am building some Kyosho re-releases and wish to equip them with identical motor/ESCs. I am thinking a ~2500kv motor and a hobbywing 60A ESC.
Like this:
Also, it seems it's cheaper to not choose a combo.

What do YOU suggest...

I ordered a Hobbywing XERUN Justock Zero Spec 17.5 combo at Amain Hobbies for $94.99. I should have waited on the Black Friday sale because they marked it down to $80.74!!! :roll: :lol: The motor is rated at 2100kV, so it should be tame in my...
based upon a few suggestions, but I think the 3s battery might be overkill (from what I'm reading now).
Is there a way to limit it or should I look at returning the battery/charger and get something else? I was...

Some of my parts came in today, to include the 3S battery. I have ordered a 2S and it should be here in a couple days with similar dimensions. Using the 3S for layout placement, I was wondering what the best way to fit the battery into the chassis....
im open to ebay or hobbyking. just looking for a cheap set to make a car usable.
id prefer to stay brushless, also minimal soldering work if possible. I can do it but its pretty crappy.

Jim, what kV's are the motors you have been running?
I run the 3500kv motor. In my dad's Ruckus, I kept the stock brushed 20t gearing, and dropped it in. The result is that the truck is faster than my stock Stampede 4x4, and it runs substantially...
What would you all say the best combo would be for an older RC 10L. Would like it to be fast :-)

The bigest problem is traction, doughnuts will be plentiful. Something cheap like the Hobbywing 9t (4300kv) set to punch level 1 will still be plenty...
Im going to be honest, im not realy that good with roll outs/gear ratio's for these kinds of cars. I want to run my Super Shot with modern 2.2' rims and rubber and want to get the most out of this runner. My question here simply is- what motor...

Thanks for the comments guys. After watching Dylan's Hot Shot run around the track in Melbourne last year at the off road enduro I was inspired to get my own 'SHOT' up and going. While this car is hardly going to take on Dog Fighters, Lazer's and...
So as of now I am keeping the 6 gear and doing a little modifying thanks to lowclasscc and was wondering about what kind of gearing I can go with my set up. I have a 27t P2K2 Pro motor and was thinking of going 81/24, is this possible or will I run...

Here is my setup:
Reedy 17t Radon.
76 spur
25 pinion
76/25 * 1.83 (assuming ratio from 6 gear tranny) = 5.56 (48 pitch)
Feedback from another forum member:
87/20 would be better for a 6 gear tranny
I'm looking to get a brushless motor setup, I'd like to have a decent amount of power, but nothing to overwhelm my car (stealth transmission gold pan, with B4 slipper assembly). I've picked out a few parts that would seem to work...
Ok, I have this motor that I pulled off my newly found RC10 buggy and I can't seem to find any info on it. I'm curious if anyone knows what turn it is? Also I have this ESC that has been sitting around awhile and I'm curious if they are any good or...

That's a bit harsh... the ProDigi is an excellent ESC that can run with anything out there from bitd... I have a couple of friends who still race theirs in 2wd mod (where brushed motors are particularly appropriate) with success.
