  • Welcome to Steel City RC channel. This is a quick first test of the new motor and esc I installed over the weekend. I am using a Hobbywing Max4 and Castle 2028 800kv in sensored mode. I can't be more pleased with this buggy. I definitely like this max4 better than the Flier ESC I used for nearly two years. Hope to get this buggy out again soon. stay tuned.

    Man G! What an fn powerhouse! Finally what you were wanting out of your dbxl! Takes a shit ton of money along with the trial and error in our hobby sometimes! So nice when you get it where you want it though. Very satisfying.
    Great work there brother… that thing ain’t messin!

    you made me sooo happy that i bought my losi dbxl-e 2.0 & what's so funny i bought a max 4 to pair it with my castle 800kv motor thinking it would NOT work on 12s so i bought a hobby wing 560kv motor to pair it up perfectly but now i found out i did not have to do that. back up motor for my castle 800kv. i'm waiting on parts from vitavon to rebuild my new losi dbxl-e 2.0. be safe & you sounded exactly like a extremely happy teenager getting his first nut. ;-}~

      Weight wise there will be difference, maybe it can be neglected or compensated somehow, but besides that if you run them both for let’s say ten minutes sharp and put them back on the charger you can see how many mah you have used. If you divide the 12S by 8S used capacity you have your answer i’d guess....? Crazy setup by the way! It rocks!! 👊🏼
