Default Mid level sct sensored brushless combo

Picking up a scte 2.0 for my local indoor clay track and been looking into alot of different motor esc combos. I've rac a castle sidewinder non sensored in my bash rig for some times with no problems.

Seams like tekin and hobbywing are the goto

I would get the Hobbywing SCT pro ESC and pair it with one of their 3656 SD motors. Probably the 4000kv model

The hobbywing sct pro c1 combo really interest me
Has the xerun pro esc and 3656sd motor 4700kv on 2s

But looks like it's discontinued or just really popular and no one has it is. Stock

You can get either the SCT pro or the XR8 SCT esc through amain. And you should be able to find the motor on ebay for a good price. That's where I got mine.

They really get down and squat (go). Sounding like there isn't much you don't know. Traxxas only puts the velinium thang in there for 11.1v

Hobbtwing esc's are a great choice. Their motors are decent buy like Trackstar motors even more and they are decent priced $40-$50

Hobbywing XR8 SCT Pro. I had the previous version in an SCTE 2.0 last year. I usually get HW stuff direct from their North America distributor website (hobbywingdirect.com). They're the first to get stock and the last to run out.

2nd the XR8 SCT Pro, it doesn't come in a combo yet but it is very reasonably priced.

Hobbywing sct pro or xr8 sc with the 3656 motor is a beast of a combo. Reasonable price and rock solid reliability

I just moved up from a Castle 1410 3800 in my SCTE 3.0 to a Hobbywing 3656sd 4700kv.

The castle was a *great* motor and not exactly short on power. I had finished several A-Mains with the win and without crashing, so I decided it was time I could use a bit more. I saw a few people say the 4700 was too much.

I didn't listen. It's alot of motor. *alot*. I'm crashing more and overshooting jumps. Will take a bit of time to get used to the extra juice. It also demolishes my batteries. I went from ~14-16 min runtime on a 5000mah pack to 10 minutes.

If you're used to the Castle stuff, I wouldn't rule out a Mamba Max Pro with a Tekin Pro 4 HD motor. The MMP is sensored and the tuning will be familiar to you.
