Thanks ORCA for the great ESCs, motors and batteries.

Congrats! When do you start the 1/12 campaign?

Hmm, snowbirds?

I ran the 1s speedo this past weekend, it feels rather nice, and no rx pack needed

Swapping Snowbirds for an ETS race and ROAR Nats in 2013.

Can't wait to get my 1S units. 1/12 is crazy good.

Thanks Mark.

We are testing now - and will be out for Snowbirds in 1/12 Mod. Andrew loves it - just didn't have enough testing time yet.

We are hoping to do an ETS race too. Let us know which one you are planning to go to.

Regards,
Ian

Those would all be great races. Those are 3 of the most expensive countries to go to as well though. You'll have a blast at any of those races. Scotty says the last race is always the best one to attend...big time party! And with all 3 of those being outside the last one has the opportunity to go inside in case of weather.

This past weekend the Orca super smooth ESC and also Keith Yu's advice and help were instrumental in allowing me to win the stock TC class in a highly attended 3 day onroad carpet race in Victoria BC Canada 230 total entries ( 36 in stock TC ) , the IROCC Speed Weekend.

I also used a team EA battery which I was very happy with.

Awesome job Jake! Glad to hear of your success!

On another note all ORCA speedo's and programmers are now coming with the new 3.0 software on them. Anyone with an older one that wants it updated can send them to me and I'll update them for you. Just pay the shipping here and back.

Thanks

The ESCs are pretty darn good. I ran a Spark with a 5.5t motor last week. It was quick! Brakes were strong enough to make my car do a nose wheelie! And, Keith is a good guy.

Been running one in mine. Happy with it so far. No booster or receiver pack needed and easy to adjust! Not to mention a smooth controllable throttle! LOL
