    That thing is sweet. You running a 550 size motor or 540? I want to try tekins new pro4 540 can in my 4x4. Friend has one and it screams. The price will make you scream too. I run the rx8 with a ballistic 550 4.5 in mine. Best speed controller out there.

    There is no way. It's funny you say that because I too went through 2 hacoc pro sc escs. Novak stuff is good for a paper weight. The rx8 is an 1/8 scale esc and mine has never been hot enough for the fan to come on in my scrt10. Granted I only run the truck during racing and have never drained a battery all the way in it either. Get the hotwire pc link as well. Makes tuning super easy. Especially at the track with a laptop.

    I've seen some shots like that from RC blimps as well, mostly during indoor stuff though. That was a very cool commercial for Orion. Funny thing is, in almost 30 yrs of RC, I don't "think" I've ever had/bought an Orion product, no reason, (always thought there stuff looked good) but just haven't.
