Not even with a 7.5 turned down to 60 percent?

You will be fine down to a 6.5 . 4wd mod and TTC will be a little tough on if due to the amperage being pulled but just stay above a 6.5 abd you will be golden

Thank you


What is "PWM" ?

I believe it means Power Modulation. Basically throttle frequency. It affects how smooth
The throttle steps are.

Can we get some ESC sheets please?

I won 2wd buggy Saturday but those pesky tekins still pull me on the straight. I tried to take what I knew from the tekin and use it with the progauge but I still cant quite get it right. Don't get me wrong I am keeping the viper in my car, I think the profile 4 was great, but can we PLEASE get some setups somewhere.

Thank you

Chase

You will be fine. I ran with an 8.5 at full bore on my VTX10 and it ran just fine... was able to use it all too

Im sure it will be fine in a buggy. I for some reason was thinking it was another vehicle. lol Yea you should be ok. Just dont overgear it. The 10 has a single board, And the 10r has two which dissapates more heat. The 10 is more prone to heat under higher loading. It should be fine with the buggy though.
