The VSE 1/8 buggy motors are on the way and will be here as soon as possible. Design is finalized and we're working on production. Again, just takes time to bring so many new products to the market at once

The VST XL motors are coming and should be available in May. The factory is working very hard to keep up with the demand for these new products It's difficult to release so many new products at once especially with the quickly growing popularity of the VTX esc's!



I will be able to attach the instructions in a post shortly, just need to receive the manual in a different format. Right you you can email me directly at [email protected] and I can email you a PDF copy.
Cool, I just ordered the vtx10r hopefully it will be here soon.

Thanks for the quick responses. I'm sure the esc will get tested thoroughly by me. It will make rounds in 17.5 sct, mod 2wd buggy and mod 4wd buggy. Just to make sure though, 8.5 with the vtx10 will be fine in 4wd buggy, right? And it looks like 220* is the cutoff you should use for speedo temp, what should be base for motor temp?

so wait, sorry if this has been asked before, but can you tweak the preloaded profiles without the progauge?

For instance, there is no mod off road with boost, in looking at the manual. so could that be changed to add boost without a progauge?

Yes the VTX10 will handle down to a 6.5 comfortably in any application. I recommend 220-230* cutoff on both motor and esc temp.

You can change between profiles without the ProGauge, but to make specific programming adjustments to any profile you need to use a ProGauge or the soon to be released PC Link cable.

Shipped out today. Could not make it to PO in time on Saturday to turn in the call tag and get the Viper box, but got everything out today.

If you ordered from Premierehobbies as a pre-order, the tracking numbers were loaded up into the website just a few moments ago, and you will be receiving an email shortly with the information!


We just made a 2nd order of speed controls due to the overwhelming demand of these bad boys.... these things are good!
