I've owned both... I'm curious as to how many people that ride the Tekin train have actually owned an LRP esc...
I've owned lrp for the last couple of years and ran 4wd mod to stock class,once I updated my esc to the new 212 software it's butter smooth,I run boost but no turbo.I set my esc up to randys setting and been playing with it in front of my house and it feels just like my v2 lrp I just had.I personally like my esc to be set up so I can just roll the power on and that's what it does perfectly,trust me it's just as smooth as my lrp.

Just placed a amain order, but not the Tekin or LRP yet but I did ask him what he likes and he said he uses Tekin and stated he has never had a problem with it...

Default Tekin vs LRP

I have had both and just recently ran both with the same car and motor. There is a difference but with the 212 program in the Tekin its much closer. The LRP like everyone has talked about it smooth from the slightest touch of the trigger where as the Tekin is not there yet. IMO. The tekin can be played with to get things better but you do need the lap top and the hot wire but once you get a good set up on the ESC you dont need to mess with it unless you change something on the car. I ran my 13.5 in my buggy with the RS and went to 8 different tracks and only changed the ESC setting one time which after that I never touched it.

Its not that hard like everyone is saying. The feel between the two is different but if you are running mod I would say the LRP but if your running any spec go with the Tekin RS.

I current run Mod motors now and dont want to change ESC's and now that I am used to the Tekins they are not that bad at all. Just personal preferance.

Just buy one and test it for yourself. you cant go wrong and you will never know until the esc is in your car and on the track.

Default lrp sxx v2 vs RS pro

I am looking into getting an SXX v2... I was wondering what you guys would suggest for stock class... I run a 17.5 with no timing or boost... Will it be just as fast as my RS pro with no boost or timing? Any other problems I should know about? Is the sxx ss a different esc all together? I would appreciate any input...

thanks

In my opinion,

Both are fantastic systems. You can't and won't go wrong with either.

I like LRP myself. The Vector series motors are fantastic. I personally just ordered one for my T4.

The ESC's are pretty equal. The Tekin has the ability to be programmed on a computer, but the SXX is just as good.

When it comes down to it, it's your pick.

I personally don't think the speed passion esc's are in the same class as the LRP or the Tekin.

With no timing and boost the LRP stock spec is definitely a smoother and faster esc than the Tekin. We've tested them back to back and side by side.

The best stock combo is the LRP Stock Spec esc paired with the Orion 2010 (grey can) motors.

I'm now running the LRP Orion setups in all my cars and hands down this setup can't be beat. I've bought and tried just about everything out there. You definitely can't go wrong with this combo, smooth as a baby's ass, tons of torque and amazing top end power as well.
