Cheap Speedo for Bashing?
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...

Re: Cheap Speedo for Bashing?
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.....

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

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.
