Ok, I love my RX8 2050 combo in my Hyper 9E. I just got an MBX6T which will be converted to EP. Which combo is the best running on 4S? Thanks a bunch!

Tekin ESC will be packaged up to go out today. Hopefully I can get it back sometime late next week, early the week after that.

Hey guys. Just got a RX8 combo for my 8ight buggy. Anyone have some shots of a RCPD conversion with one wired up? I'm trying to decide the cleanest wiring layout... Thanks.

Hey guys. Just got my new Tekin 2000kv Truggy Motor installed in my 8B. Love it. Power is so smooth.

Anyways had a question. I see the kit comes with 12g wire for the esc to motor. What are you guys using from the battery to the esc? Will 12g be enough or do we need 10g? I know the battery wires are 10g.

Can anyone explain the lights on the esc. I am trying to set like current limit using the leds. I got to the current limit setting. Then when I goto change it the lights go like 1, then 1 and 2, then 2, then 2 and 3. How do I know whats what? Obviously 1 is one and 2 is two right? But what about the double lights?

Also what size bullets are being used between the motor and the esc?
Were do we find specs like amp draw or watts for the motors?

Guys, I am stop playing offroad for a month, due to the rotor failed. Until today I still haven't receive my replacement rotor. Tekin folks was sent out the rotor by first-class mail 1 month ago. I think probably the replacement rotor lose somewhere.
