I absolutely love the Amp crush's tires, & body, they just look fantastic IMO, what a huge difference a $60 upgrade can make, well worth it IMO, I plan on picking a few of these esc/motor combos up for my really old stampede and a Losi XXX short course. Thanks for showing it off, much appreciated!
@@10thScaleGarage yo dude, and on rustler, my pinion was too big aswell, except mine was a 30 tooth. anyways, i just drilled the bogger hole out farther with a drill bit that was the exact width of the hole already. anyways, it worked, just all my electronics overheat because my pinion is too big.
Awesome! I did the same to Amp Crush, but the 48 pitch pinion and spur kept stripping out! Converted to 32 pitch and 2000kv 3s and since then no problems! Completly insane. My favorate truck in the world!
I grabbed a Hobbywing quicrun 120a ESC for $48 and a surpass hobby rocket 3660 4700kv for $36. Truck does wheelies on 4wd and can go 56mph on 3S. love it
2wd monster trucks are awesome. I ordered an Amazon Special brushless setup for like $60 or $70 for my old RC10 Gold Pan that I converted to a truck, using the Kyosho conversion. The Gold Pan has the Stealth on it with a B4.1 V2 slipper on it. I set up for brushless way before the re-release of the gold pans some years back. The ESC died with in 5 minutes of me hooking it up. I sent in an email telling them that the ESC died and they gave me a full refund with in hours. I spent the refund on a Castle Sidewinder 3 ESC. 2 years on that motor/ESC and they are doing awesome.
Castle sidewinder for $99 was my last purchase & threw it in a 2wd Slash M.T conversion lol. Runs good when you can put the power to the ground. I have RC'S that will hit 118mph, IMO speed isn't as fun. My preference is 60 ish, is my sweet spot 👍💯
@@10thScaleGarage That's no good bro ! I bought one years ago that burned up . So far so good with this one & I'm going to keep it on 2s lol . You can find some awesome deals threw banggood, bought a aluminum Servo 32.kg for my new Cen Reeper & I luv it .I'm waiting on that 2cyl gas motor with the over head cam for a T maxx build , looks just like a real motor lol. Have you seen it ?? don't know if it runs good , but sure looks awesome 💯
If I may recommend something, take the 48p gears out and put some 32p gears… but be aware that if you do… the spur gear needs to drilled to size of 5mm.
I have the same truck and just bought a brushless motor and esc. Really looming forward to installing it but need to pick up a new receiver and transmitter.
@@10thScaleGarage I have checked out some Fly Sky and seen some reviews that look promising. I will check that out. BTW, how about them browns and go Bucks. Ohio fam here man. Enjoying the content!
When the stock ecx plastic axles snap, GPM rear axles for the slash/rustler 4x4 are a perfect fit. I've got the amp mt and I replaced the horizon electronics with a traxxas 12t, xl5 and rx.
I just got back into building Tamiya stuff and built a Blackfoot extreme with lt shocks etc threw a 60 bucks brushless setup in and it works awesome!!!
"One tooth for the tooth fairy", that was hilarious hahahaha! I spent about $40 for a GoolRC brushless system on Amazon for my LaTraxx Teton, and that worked pretty well. Definitely woke it up quite a bit.
So I have a 2WD ECX Ruckus Monster Truck I got in a trade and a guy put a brushless setup in it. I freaking love that thing. So tough. Fast, those massive tires soaks up everything. Jumps pretty well also. I did the metal transmission upgrade ($30) but it was probably unnecessary. After taking out the plastic trans, not a chipped tooth in sight. Still, it's bullet proof now. I once tried a GoolRC brushless motor/esc combo. I went up in smoke in 5 minutes. But the ebay guy gave me a refund. Anyways, this was before I knew much about RC. I had a 27 tooth pinion which would have been great for top speed but adds way more stress on the motor & esc. Is that why it went up in smoke? Don't know. But it didn't help. So going forward, I tend to lean towards ungearing my RCs. Less stress on the motor & esc and your acceleration will be great. And you're right. 2WD setups are way more forgiving on the heat of the motor. They're great.
I have two of these types of set ups and for some reason neither of them like starting from a dead stop. Stock gearing even. If in grass or anything, they just don't want to get moving without help. Once moving, no prob at all. Punch setting doesn't do squat to help. I'd still do them again before dropping big bucks on something else though!
I just got the same motor and ESC last week from bang good. It's going into my 15 year old stampede. It will be my first brushless 10th scale rc car. I have a couple cheap 16th scale brushless cars but never had a 10th scale. Hopefully I can handle the extra speed. I'm not the best driver and I tend to hit random trees and curbs lol
I just got in trade, a Wild Challenger Turbo 2wd 1/12th scale truck that was converted to brushless. Whoever did it put ALL metal A-arms, knuckles, carriers, axles....somehow they evidently were using the stock receiver with 5-6 wires going down towards the servo. I plan on replacing servo and receiver. The radio is a M2R racing 2.4g but no joy as far as controlling it unless I am missing something......it has 3 pins for the ESC connection and was connected to the receiver. If this sounds like something I may can run like it is, please let me know. (Like a binding or calibration issue ). Thanks for your fun videos!! Thanks in advance if you can help out (heck, I would love to know what aluminum upgrades was used)...lol
Nice!!! Im going to use that upgrade on my kids ecx amp crush!! Thanks man your vids are the BEST! 😳} my face as you tossed your Rc in the swimming pool...
That was Great and I do like the look of the Crush and also it being totally water proof is awesome.... Great posting , would there by chance to see all RC's you own some time you know giving someone a sight to aspire to Thanks ..... ----PEACE
I swapped an Onyx 4K system into my ECX Torment and went up to a 23t pinion and it’s a completely different animal compared to the stock brushed system.
The only brushed system I've ever bought is the 5200kv surpass system with 120amp esc. $99 on amazon. I run it in my HSP Flying fish and it hits around 70 mph on 3s although I usually race it on 2s. Great video btw
I need a cheap ESC and motor for my savage X i just fried my engine and I'll turn it into electric I'll get the electric bracket for the motor but what's the cheapest way to go for ESC motor Is combination kit
I paid £10 for a 7700kv brushless motor and £15 for a 120a esc. Worked fine on 2s but killed steering servo on 3s, was putting out 10 volts to receiver. Motor is running fine on 3s, only rated to 2s.
Also love your videos... very informative... I have been trying to figure out why my slash 2wd with tsm shakes and shivers if I put the tsm to 1/2 way... any suggestion or thoughts
Did you get the 2600kv or 3300kv option? I've got a 2WD Slash that I've had for 7~ years now that refuses to die so throwing in something bigger seems like the right plan.
got the same combo on amazon 60a esc 3650 3100kv came with 2 battery straps aswell for 42 dollars and it was prime have 3 there great systems i even got the programming card the esc has 17 different settings
I have a Ecx amp that I put a surpass 45 amp and a 3650 3600 kv motor on It is my favorite basher, better upgrade to the metal gear set tho and rpm arms lmao
Converted my Feiyue fy03 from brushed to brushless for 85€ including the reciver. Now there is a 3800 kv motor in it and that thing is a beast. On 60% power it runs 50kph on sand. Stupidly fun. 😂😂😂
Brushless stampede let’s go so there is a thing on the slipper clutch that goes inside the transmission that’s like a little pen and that will snap what you can do is you can replace that with a piece from a drill bit and it will make your transmission really strong The cheapest ESC and motor that I’ve gotten is a goolRC 50$
Ok... please be kind... very new to rc world... do have a slash 2wd... but getting a stampede 2wd brushed used... has no controller... any good budget friendly controller suggestions???
Oh, I meant to tell ya.......I have two of the vintage 10th scale ECX Ruckus 2wd trucks that are extremely durable. One will be brushless soon. Will keep one stock and beastout the other...lol.
@@10thScaleGarage lol yep!!! Those brushed car diffs ring & pinion and spurs can actually handle alot. I have a dhk hobby RAZR and I've put ridiculous brushless power in it and its lasted for 5 months and only 1 diff stripped out.
Be careful. Those ESCs have a nasty habit of catching fire. I've had it happen to me in the past and I've seen many other people have it happen to them
Lol...Brushed Matters...I have a crush I wanna upgrade..then i bought the Arrma Granite now I got two trucks to upgrade 😅I just might keep the Crush brushed and upgrade the Granite 🙃
Man look change them drive shaft to metal and the thing I hate ! I have a stampede too ,I don't like when it takes off up in the air it goes side to side ! I one day I took a battery and put it on the front bumper it held down , but they have weighs now that you can put rc 💪💪💪💪💪💪💯💯💯💯💯
Any updates? The amp isn't worth using 3s because I think it's all plastic transmission What's the top speed on the 17t pinion. Reason it's not hot is it's probably way under geared
