If you knew anything about LRP's reputation for reliability, service, and support among the 1/10th scale pan car crowd, you would be pleased to wait forever. I'd never by an LRP brushless speed control.

If you knew anything about LRP's reputation for reliability and performance among the 1/10th off road crowd, you would be pleased to know that LRP will have a 1/8 system. I always buy LRP brushless speed controls.

They are extremely well proven and reliable in offroad. Can't wait for the 1/8 system.
