Solara, would a SA V2.0 5.5R work with the Losi or should I get the Cirtix Slotless Sensored Motor for 1/8 - 2200/2500KV?

Thanks again for the help.
Depends on how many cells you are running...you must run at least 3S on the SILVER ARROW and LOSI is a way too heavy SCT for the 5.5....Ciritx Slotless will work but you must run 3S or more...4S is the best. 2200 will work...2500 might get too hot for 4S. But should work great with 3S.

Thanks again Solara. Already have a 3S lipo pack I bought earlier for the Silver Arrow ESC and will get the Citrix 2500 or 2200 (if in stock on the SP website).

Will the Gt 2.0 LPF series be able to power a tekin sc4x 4.5t (4000kv)in a losi ten scte? its a 550 size motor.I was going to go with the silver arrow till i read it doesnt like running on 2s as all the tracks here make us run 2s for sc.

When will there be more MMM 17.5 motors available? Have called a couple of hobby shops in the Chicagoland area, and nobody has them. Even the SP website shows them out-of-stock, any ideas? Thanks.

You would be better to run a GT 2.0 Pro, and not an LPF with a 4.5 550. The Pro is more robust ESC and designed to run with lower turn motors.

Sorry if this has been asked before but I don't feel like digging through over 500 pages

I'm looking for a dirt cheap speedo for blinky TC and oval racing. I see the Cirtix Inspire 2.0 is dirt cheap. How does it do in 2s 17.5 tc and/or 1s 17.5-13.5 oval racing? Also, I don't see it on the ROAR approved list. Is it legal or just waiting for approval or what?

You can try....but we never did. I recommend GT2 PRO (always) for 4x4 mod...especially that Losi Ten CONCRETE BLOCK...that thing is just too big and too heavy....

Cirtix CLUB SPEC is what you need....it is ROAR legal. Inspire is sensorless esc.

It can be used with 1S only if you are using the TQ Cell booster (this is the ONLY 1 that will work).

This ESC cannot be software upgradable or running the boost software. If you need to run boost, you will need something like the GT2 LPF or GT2.1 ProStock.

Hopefully 1st week of November. we have sold about 100 of those 2 weeks ago because the IIC and Halloween Classic event...then some are getting that for Cleveland indoor....

Keep checking our site...but always support the hobby shop, have them to place order....

You are running BOOST or no timing..? Please specify...

If you are running boost...good luck, I hate that class cause it will have 100 setup just for the software and the motor.

If you are running no timing...great. Max it to 20* (full right) and gear at 4.5 and check temp....I am sure you can keep gearing up til 4.0 or even higher, depends on the size of the track.

I assume a rx pack would work also? I hate boosters.

Thanks
