    Dang it, Matt. I have an FCX24M Disco on the way from Fair RC, and wasn't really planning on doing much to it, other than swap out the wheels to the 0.9" wheels and tires I'm getting from there. Now you do this, and I have several small AM32 ESCs just sitting here, and some plenty powerful buck converters so I can run a high voltage servo... I guess that means I have to do this as well. ;)
    Awesome work, and it seems so smooth, and that slow crawl, and that insane top speed. Wow. :D

    Micro Brushless motors of any brand are rather cheap anyway (a venom is 20€, injora 15€ with mount !), it’s the ESC that matters…and to find a good one under 40€ for 3s and brushless is much harder.

    @yota_blaster5030 Місяць тому

    Weird question but does an esc effect slow speed crawling or is that more of a motor thing? I snagged a deal on one of the FMS Bronx units and noticed its a little twitchy down low like my AX24 where you have to give it a lot more throttle input to get over an obstacle than something like the TRX4M. I know gearing plays a big role but they’re already slow enough at top speed so I was gonna address the power or esc first and go from there.

So keep an eye on them next wk! You will also need to change the connectors on your steering and shift servo to fit a standard receiver. I’ll link the kit I used below as well as the gt5.
