I thought the price of the combos was already good
Im glad i bought it with all the features as handy... the battery check feature should be added with the cheaper version.

I was in profile 5 and had only ran for about 2 min, the system worked great all night going in and changing settings and all that turned off and on good i think it just got hung up for some reason, i am running a SCTE geared at 40/15 temps after our 8 min A main motor was 139 DEG. and the ECS was 103 DEG.

If the temps were low and it cut off, it hit voltage cut off, due to a spike for some reason. Look at settings, try and lower punch a couple of points and see if that helps resolve it, because of less current to pass through the system.

You need to run a bigger spur gear.

Thinking you need a bigger spur like 86 - or turn the Forward Power down on the esc.

I just traded my buddy for a brand new Losi TEN SCTE Rolling Chassis and a brand new Viper VX4R.45..

What are you guys getting good results with as far as gearing with the VX4R .45? I know it's probably been posted in this thread but i don't want to sift through over 500 pages to find it lol..

Also want the Viper guys to know that i am very impressed with this system. We had it on the track yesterday and we was impressed. So impressed that i ordered the VTX8 today to try out.. It looks promising to..
