Default Help identifying This ESC

Need help identifying this brushed LRP esc.
I am trying to build back my old buggy back to the way I raced it years back.

Regarding the wires it is a brushed forward/brake esc. It could be an LRP regarding the blue/red colors. No way for a better picture?

yes it is a brushed LRP from a old buggy I ran years ago. But can’t remember the model. It’s an old picture from years ago.

And what exactly is your plan if someone could identify the exact model (not very likely, TBH)? It's probably long out of production by now and not sitting on many shelves in any shops either. Would a modern brushed ESC not work as well?

He's talking of his particular LRP ESC, not general brushed ESCs. For whatever reason he seems to only want this model ESC again, nothing current.

Not sure what kind of ESC that is, but it looks to use what is referred to as "Fuzzy Logic."

Prrrfff... nostalgia before functionality.....
Once on a Dutch forum a guy was restoring an old Tamiya and was searching for exact the same capacitors with the exact printed numbers that were soldered on the original motor he had pics of. Any difference was not good, good luck with finding one with the right date stamp.

LRP Quantum Pro Sport. I had one way back. Picked it up pretty cheap. I can't remember if it was late 90's or early 2000. Either way, I quickly swapped it out for a Tekin. It worked great, but I was a Tekin fan.

I won a race with that esc.. I was always a Novak fan. I mostly ran the cyclone for years. But a used Novak is pricey.. was just wanting to fix up my old buggy.. thanks for the help.

It was a good ESC. I bought it for $75 and sold it for $85, if I remember right. I then purchased a Tekin G10 Pro.

What buggy are you fixing up?
