If I preordered from Premiere, how long will it take to ship out to customers?

Definitely good news!

Those are some of the nicest looking ESC's I have ever seen.

My question, looking to get back into the hobby after a hiateous. I will be racing but not at a national level. JConcepts Supercup series(used to be Florida Electric series) mainly and club races. I am a nitro only guy, so this will be my first 1/10 EP venture, going 2wd buggy and SC not sure 2wd or 4wd yet. What motor and esc would you recommend. Will be running mod not stock.

Thanks in Advance,
Brandon

Brandon, The jconcepts supercup series is a great series. I TQ'd and Won the 2wd stock class when round 2 was at Mills pond using a vtx and the 17.5 motor. For 2wd I would use the vtx10 and any motor that you feel would fit your need. As for SC, It would depend on your choice of drive. For 2wd go with the vtx10 and for 4wd I would go with the vtx10r. The vtx10r will run a 550 motor.

Agreed.

You will have to look at what they run though.

Mod/13.5/17.5 can go either in buggy or 2wd sc

The 10r Will Handle a 550 in a 4x4 Just like any other sc esc out there.

Most robust and stable 10th speedo on the market now!

You can probably start around a 20-23/84. Are you going to run it boosted or non boosted?

Those major distributor orders shipped out immediately so they could fulfill their preorders as quickly as possible. They should receive the esc's Friday and will have them on the way to customers right away :)

The boosted feture on the VTX series is nothing like tekin.. Took me a few tries to get it right no real motor problems though just dont go to much off the bat though! and Have fun racing.

When I was testing the VTX10/VST 10.5 boosted in my SC10 I was running 20/84. I believe the Losi internal ratio is about the same, so 20-21/84 should be a solid starting point. The VTX boost function creates massive rpm so often a lower gear can actually be faster and have more torque. I'd start 20/84.

Yes, I will be carrying TQ as well. I just signed on as a driver, and am working quickly to get everything up on the site.
