Yes definitely from the top-post side. If you tried from the bottom you’d likely ruin the factory solder and cook the board before enough heat got across to solder the wires to the post.

hey guys a speed passion newb here. Just got a used losi 22. It came with the pro gran turismo 2.0 esc. It came with a hobbywing programer box. My questions are can I run the esc without the capacitors? Just seems like the esc with the capacitors is a little to big for the 22 buggy. Also the hobbywing programer work ok with the esc? What setting would you guys suggest for the esc with a tekin 10.5 motor? Gonna be running on a indoor clay track medium sized. Any help would be great.

I need a bit of advice from you guys.
I recently started driving 1/10 scale off road and for that i bought the ae B4.1
We run on carpet tracks exclusively.
Stock class is 13.5T no timing on esc, but static timing on motor allowed.
So im looking to buy a new motor and i narrowed down the choice to the v3 competition or the MMM.
looking at the stats alone the MMM looks to be faster with the higher KV, but it also says in the description that it is made for on road.
Please explain the pros and cons of each motor to me
thanks

Allow me to answer...
The reason MMM was not widely used becasue the motor turn of MMM is design for ON ROAD USE...that does not mean the MOTOR is not capable to be used on off road. MMM 17.5 along with the silver red rotor is heavily used on blinky class in off road such as SCT and buggy.
If you are running it on buggy in MOD....V3 is the better choice because the 7.5 and 8.5 motor can does not have the vent holes like the other turn. They are heavily used for MOD buggy....and with the boost software, they are more then enough power for any track.
MMM is more fit for the blinky mode with 17.5 or 13.5 depends on your country's spec.........if you are running it on 13.5 or 17.5 or 21.5..MMM is your better choice. Otherwise, V3 is still the big off road favor.

Yes...I cannot tell from NOVAK but I am sure you will NOT going to use the same timing and gearing compare to NOVAK to achieve the same result...sometime you have to gear down sometime you have to gear up, and sometime you have to adjust the timing.

Was this for an Ultra sportsman or Cirtix slotless? If so they shipped in the past with them, but it was a rolling change to not include them.
