just remember dont boost to much make sure the boost timing and can timing dont exceed 60* together or run the risk of over revving the motor. our boost feture creates a CRAP load of rpm super fast! so testing is key. |

Ok so far I have my 8.5 and vtxr in my scr, I have 10 boost 10 top speed and 8 slew rate, any suggestions or thoughts? 21/82 gearing, stock motor timing

Two pole motors by nature are higher rpm and lower torque than four pole motors. Two pole motors also tend to have a much smoother and more precise power band.
Four pole motors may be better for some specific applications, but at the same time a two pole motor will be better for other specific applications. In rc cars a four pole design isn't necessarily better, and in our opinion this two pole design is better for the intended application and desired performance. I will give you guys a more technical answer soon on the differences between a two and four pole design :tire: |

I'll report back this afternoon

I'm looking at a VTX10R to replace my RX8 (the RX8 has too large of a footprint in my application), but having read a few pages, it sounds like more than a couple are DOA or shortly thereafter. I'm curious if it's a few people having problems (like when the RX8s first came out) and if when you get it back, if you had continued problems or if they were remedied. As long as if there is a problem it can be fixed quickly and stay fixed, this seems like an ideal ESC for my setup.

we had a couple esc's out of the batch come up doa after leaving our facility. Weylin has commented on the new batch being more stable and less likley to fail. |

Interesting....

I'm actually running a Durango and with the RX8 in there, there really isn't much room for a receiver.I like that the Viper is smaller and lighter than the RX8 and overall should fit MUCH better. Guess I'll get one on order once amain gets them back in and give it a shot.
