Everyone is still scratching their heads on your caps blowing off, we have not been able to emulate that on any test they preform. The VX4 will have to handle the 550's since it will be paired with a 4 pole 5200kv motor.

1/10th ESC's in heavy 4wd SC's like the Losi take it's toll on almost any 1/10th ESC on the market. Most suggest not running 1/10th ESC's with 4wd's period and suggest using 1/8th scale ESC's. Until we get the VX8 on the market the VTX10R will run the 550's. We are developing a fan kit and BEC stabilizer for the VTX10R's for less worry when running in the 4wd SC's.
The VTX10R has almost twice the FETs as the RX8 but the smaller footprint dissipates heat much different due to the smaller size. IMO nothing on the market is as good as the VTX10 and VTX10R's.

The VTX10R is sensored the Copperhead is sensorless and comes with a fan installed. It's different but still uses a lot of the VTX technology plus it's not much larger.

He never came back and let everyone know how many FETS are in the RX8, I must have been right.

Regardless you are wrong, apparently guessing
, and posting as fact. Obviously I would not be here if I did not knowthat for sure, I do not guess....

Perhaps I made a mistake assuming you were a Viper employee or team driver. You say 'we' a lot in your posts referencing Viper.
