They are coming very soon, hopefully in time to drop one in the TLR22.

Here is the VTrax10R, you can see how small it is. For it's size it feels very, very solid. The 10R will handle up to 4S.

Like the motors the esc has a great look as well and should be easy to fit in everything.
I like the fact that it has a button instead of a switch!

If its just like a tekin then it will burst into flames randomly when you plug in a pack..
Lets hope its much better than a tekin.
I am considering jumping on board just waiting on availability.

First night out with my Viper 17.5-tQ and a win in 2wd stock. Great motors and they run extremely cool. Beat out a fully boosted out Tekin system by a Tekin team driver

Thanks for such a powerhouse Viper RC. I can see a few more wins in my future. Even more when my Speedo's get here!

I'm testing what exactly the VTrax10R can handle. It's a 1/10th speedo but I plan on testing in a Losi 4wd SC with different 550 motors from 3.5 - 5.5 on 2-3S. My main objective is to test the BEC, temps and overall performance compared to a few other ESC's I have tested. This setup seems to be hard on other 1/10th ESC's so I need to make sure it will be able to handle it without cog or glitching.

And yes they are planning on having a 1/8th ESC which is due out in Spring 2011.

Like SaladFork said this is a 1/10 esc and he's currently testing the 550 motor capability. The Vtrax10R will be spec'ed with no motor limit on 2s/540 motor, 4.5t/540 on 3s, and 6.5t/540 on 4s. Thanks!
