thanks, I was pushing the button for too long.

Needed a new esc to replace my old ass GTB which was starting to do "weird" things. After checking out many high end escs from several manufacturers I decided on the VTX10R BE. One of my teammates ordered one too, along with an 8.5 Viper motor. Hope these escs turn out to be all that since I sold myself and my friend pretty hard on them.

Yup...happened to me also. One month out of warranty...lol. I'm not sure what the prob is at this time. My wires and everything is fastened with a small amount of slack so their not getting moved around. All the connections look great also. Customer support didn't help at all....:flaming:
Later

tried reflowing your joins and replacing your sensor cable?

Sorry, been away from the forum a few days. It's been a busy race weekend, will try to put some results up later.

King- you guys are going to like the systems, great to use, smooth, powerful. If you guys have run 8.5 from others before, you might want to add a pinion or two - our current motors are more torque than rpm.

Graveyard- PM if you have any additional question, more than willing to help. It's hard to figure out why a system can cut off, because there are multiple reasons, from different equipment. Sometimes it's a problem, sometimes it's a fluke. PM me if you have more questions.

am considering a VTX10 with VST 13.5T sensored setup for my 22SCT.

is anyone still running these with goodluck? they are less then $200 for the combo on Amain.

I would get an 8.5, but that's me.

Hi guys,

On the 540 motors, no matter how tight I screw the endbell, I can adjust the timing by hand...it doesn't seem to move during running but it still makes me nervous..is it normal that they are this loose?

A 13.5 might not be the best bet for an SCT. I like my 10.5 and occasionally I run an 8.5.

13.5 works great in my 2wd buggy.

Losi - they are a great deal for a great unit!! We actually went back and updated the spec on the orange VTX to be as close to the BE unit as possible!!

Dave - we have seen that with some of the motors, if you want to feel safe a drop of CA will make sure to hold it. Generally not a concern, we had a batch that it was reported some did that.

our rules at min 10.5 so can either run 10.5 or 13.5

the 13.5 should be fine, very controllable, and usable powerband. a 10.5 will be a bit more powerful. once you get down to an 8.5, 7.5, 6.5... you need to be a little more skilled with throttle input.

you can always run boost as well!

WOW, really, nobody is around? Must be nitro season.........

Just got home from our last Friday night indoor race. Ran my SC8e on 5s with a 1900kv motor with a Viper VTX8 ESC on a really tight track. It is so smooth. Check it out.
