Does it have a booster for 1s? Does it have a lvc for 1s? What other battery does it support? Thanks;

Cirtix club spec will not work for 1S alone....and not all booster will work with that. I found only TQ CELL booster does work with cirtix club spec. Novak and the other, somehow...does not work.

It support all 2S lipo batteries....6-7 cells nimh.

Whats the differences from the

GT V2.1 EX Brushless ESC
GT2.0 LPF Brushless ESC
GT2.1 Prostock ESC
GT2.0 Pro Brushless ESC

I have read the description but it does not tell me much, help would be much appreciated or a site that might link the specs of each?

Thanks

GT V2.1 EX Brushless ESC (12th scale Pro grade ESC, for stock and MOD...1S lipo use. no ESC fan can be attached)
GT2.0 LPF Brushless ESC (mainly for stock racing and boost stock racing, motor limited to 5.5T, lower price ESC)
GT2.1 Prostock ESC (mainly for stock racing and boost stock racing, motor limited to 5.5T but with aluminum case for better heat destribution, still lower price ESC)
GT2.0 Pro Brushless ESC (for MOD use...high end ESC, good for all kinda racing, 2X world championship and X number of times European championship, flagship ESC from Speed Passion).

P.S....new PRO ESC is not coming out anytime soon, still in testing period. I don't see it will be completely out until 2012. The no timing binky ESC will be out earily...in couple months.

Sorry...ESC is way too old for any upgrade or trade in.

Looks like they'll be on the self then. They will end up in something as they still work fine for anything but official racing.

is the v3 1s motors good in touringcars?

booth stock and modified

Still looking for the bearing size for the V3 2 cell 21.5t motor.

what is the new ECS size compared to the current GT2.0 pro ?

All my V1.1 are on my OFF ROAD car...works great. I used the GT1.1 PRO for MOD racing...just as good.

Very much the same size...may be just a hair narrower. But more like a square shape.

Yes - Both...share the same size.

I'm looking for a recommendation, I'm new to on road. I've been racing off-road mod for the past few summers. I've been looking at speed passion, due to the low cost and great feedback. I'd like a esc that can be programed for "blinkey" mode and that can also be programed for boost/timing advance. It would be run with a 1s battery and a 17.5 in blinkey mode in the winter. And a 17.5 with 2s batt with timing and boost in the summer.
