Will the ESC have the ability to collect and display any last readings to do with voltage, amp, controller temp etc.. similar to the MGM z-series? If not is this something being looked at as a future enhancement?

That would be anawesome feature. Recording min voltage and peak amps during a run would be a VERY usefull feature.

We have a very intelligent micro and some of those features can be done. I looked up that other esc and it requires a "black box" to add these features.

The temperature is already a feature by looking at our led tree while the throttle is in nuetral. We will display the unit temp currently.

The great thing about our esc's is that if and when we make improvements you can simply download them without buying another esc!

So since A) I'm fairly new to 1/8th scale and B) I just happen to have two Kyosho 777 SP2 buggies with only one engine, what conversion kit works for the Kyosho's? And what is a good battery?

Team Tekin,

I can honestly say, I am happy with your prices. and im sure they will get cheaper as time goes on. i'll buy one for sure. I need to buy my nephew a setup. so, i'll buy me this and give him my MM and Nue setup.

im thinking the 1900kv on 5S. Tekin, how is that? right now I am running a 1850kv (1512 1Y) on 5s. i think this is a good substitute...
