Avid enters the big bore spring fray. Users will have lots and lots of choices to confuse themselves with here shortly!

worked great as rears on the drier days at my track, though even the dry, dusty days, it was pretty hardpacked.....they use something like a cement roller after watering the track, so the WORST it gets, is still pretty firm....

Tried the sway bar, couldn't figure it out, ditched it.


I hear they're ok on carpet.

I run a rear sway bar, helps keep the rear end squared up on high traction tracks. With the sway bar, cornering is a tad more precise. I would suggest removing it in bumpy track conditions.y

You most likely did some damage. Just because the wire colors match does'nt mean thay are the same. You need to look at your manuals for both the esc and motor you are using and see which color is A,B,and C and match up that way,not by color. All companies are different. You can try to hook it back up after doing this and you may get lucky.

Wow your post was very hard to read. In addition to being new to the electric r/c world are you new to speaking English? Proper grammar, spelling and punctuation go a long way for getting your question answered. I think that the older LRP ESC's automatically went into brushed motor mode if the sensor wire is not hooked up. I could be thinking of another ESC being that I have never run an LRP brushless ESC, but I am fairly certain I remember hearing older LRP's doing that. If this is the case, the Reedy 3300 is sensorless, this is most likely what happened. It may have done damage to the ESC in addition to your motor. Best bet is to use a sensored motor with a sensored ESC, and a sensorless motor with a sensorless ESC, or something like the Tekin or Castle MMP that can do both. It really is that easy.
