Cheap Speedo for Bashing?

Post by JK Racing »

Okay...I know it is for an airplane, but reading the specs...what is the downside?

14T limit, forward/brake...nice voltage/amps for the BEC...

for $10 plus shipping (while they last...)

Yeah- the spec sheet is confusing as it has no brake rating listed (amps), even though it says 32 brake steps. I'm gonna say no brakes.

Which I guess depending on your definition of bashing, brakes might not be required..... :lol:

I heard that they go really really fast, but they don't seem to provide much power to the steering servo. :lol:

Hitec HFX series have gone into many of my cars. I like them, fairly basic and easy to use. these are Fwd only if it matters. I also like novaks as well.
