Right, setting it a little high will protect more against the low voltage pulls when you get on the power with a pretty dead battery.

Just out of curiosity. Based on the above info about Low Voltage Cutoff, why have you set your 1900kv setup on the previous page to 4 on VC?

Is the low voltage cutoff on the RX8 and RS PRO speedy's per cell voltage or total voltage?

Just curious
2 is 2 cell,3 is 3 cell,4 is 4 cell ect

I've been testing some batteries lately so I've been running default VC settings. I've wanted to see how much runtime I can get using 3.0v per cell along with seeing if the packs I'm testing will handle it.

I've had no issues running standard VC settings so far. I have puffed a few packs that we used for "testing" but I'm sure it was due to their poor quality.

Just wondering...

Something like how this person mounted.
Can anyone tell me what chassis is that? I love how everything is placed and place for 2 lipos rocks!

Other question, I think of buying RX8, any problems were discovered with this esc apart from fan? Who has the best price now for it?

No problems abt spares. I run the F8T truggy, the EX1 RTR buggy & EX1 Pro buggy. Have no need for spares yet. BTW, I'm not a team driver. I'm not even located in the U.S but in faraway Singapore. It's the best bang for the buck. For more info on purchase, you can try Chris at holeshothobbies or Modhobby. For more read on Caster, please go to casterracingusa.com/forum.

I haven't been able to find a clear answer.. so with the T8 buggy motors (4030) the dimensions says it is 71mm long. Does this mean the motor can is 71mm long or is the motor including the shaft 71mm long? If its just the motor can how long is the motor total including the Can and Shaft? Thanks Ethan
