Will the RS Pro handle a Re-Wound HV4.5 for speed runs with 2S lipos? I sent Jim an e-mail and I would like to see if it'll handle it.

i see all the other big companys ESC and they all come with caps is this something extra that i would need to buy for the RS or does it not need one

Nope cap comes with speedo. Its very small i would say 3/8's by 1/2 inch that gets soldered to the pos and neg of the battery terminals of the speedo.

Can't wait to get my hands on one of these babies :D

Stormer shipped my pro today :D

Mine is on pre-order from Horizon (through my LHS) so I probably got to wait a couple days. Oh well. At least I know they are finally here.

Just ordered a couple RS PROs....cant wait:cool:

As of 11:13pm pst. Stormer hobbies has 3 in stock!! Hurry they'll go fast!!!!

Tekin, is it OK to use 14G wire to the motor or would I be better off sticking to 12G?

12g is better...more power flow:sneaky: Most of top drivers prefer 12g wires

OOOPS!

Just got my in-stock notification from Stormer, went to the site and they're all sold out. :cry:

Yeah, thats the one bad thing about stormer.... and don't get my wrong I LOVE STORMER for anything i cant get locally at a fair price, or in a reasonable timeframe.

But stormer reps have emailed me mulitple times that their in stock notifiers go out within seconds of stock being added to the site, which just isn't true.

i had notifiers on for the RS and 13.5 hacker brushless motor. I also have been checking periodically on the site myself. (bookmarked the product pages in my browser) This morning both showed in stock, I placed my order, and a few hours later got the in stock notifiers, after the items were already out of stock again.

Its a nice feature, but is it far from real time, and not very helpful on items that are in high demand and go fast.

For items that arent in such high demand, or are stocked in larger quantities, the feature works well.
