nothing wrong with integy

Integy is garbage though, so you get what you pay for. I honestly haven't bought any GH stuff before, but I know for fact Integy stuff is complete trash and only good for making shelf queen cars look good. Integy's business plan is selling shitty aluminum parts to newbies. No one buys from integy more than once. That I know...

The RC hop-up industry baffles me a bit. It's more akin to the Jewellery industry than RC. "Not that there's anything wrong with that".

geeze im glad i dont work for integy !! i would shoot myself after hearing all this ha-ha. how bad could it possible be ? they are center diff housings how much abuse do they take?

The center diff would probably hold up since it isn't subject to forces like arms and other parts, but I have just learned that there is a reason King Headz type stuff sells at a premium over Integy. Anyone that has been in this hobby more than 10 minutes generally will tell you to run, not walk from most integy products. Like I said, they don't seem to care since they aren't particularly looking for repeat business.

All I know is that their products are garbage and quite frankly, I don't think they care. I have bought several items from them an each bent or broke within five minutes of putting it on my car.

I think its just recently, because I have a set of integy hex drivers from 2002 and they were what everyone had back then, and i still have the same tips in from that long ago.

i had a full integy t-maxx, it was tough as hell, bulkheads/shock towers/chassis braces/other parts, it did many tumbles and came out fine, any part will bend/break going into a curb at 40+ lol

Yeah, those integy tools are good. Mine are super old. But, that's the only thing I've ever bought from them too.

Way off topic but I just ordered a set of Team AE hex drivers today, I checked out the Integy drivers but in the end none of the big hobby shops I usually ordered from carried their replacement tips, but everyone had AE. Sometimes saving money up front can end up costing you more down the road.

Xcelorin 1/8 ESC LVC doesn't stop the motor alim ?
Hi, I have a Xcelorin ESC on my RC8 and I use 2x2S Lipos ! I have set the Low voltage cut off to 13,2 V with the Losi software. But I'm very surprised to learn in the manual that the ESC has just one led blinking when the Low Voltage Cut off is reached ! The ESC doesn't stop the motor alim, and you can damage your Lipos. I have seen the power down after 25 minutes and stop to run, because with the body I haven't seen the led blinking. I have test my 2S with my balancer and found one cell with 2.98 V !!! Is it normal that ESC doesn't stop the motor alim after the LVC reached ?
Thanks
