Have my 2nd SCT Pro and this new one if great with the larger internal BEC and there combos come with the LCD card which is awesome as most you have to buy seperately! I have seen some hobbywing stuff around here and no one has had a problem and the warranty from FALCONSEKIDO.COM is 180 days which once again awesome as some only have 30 to 60 days if that.
I had the SCT PRO/4700 combo and it was stupid fast on a 13/40 gearing and now i have the SCT PRO/4000 combo and its not like the 4700 and alittle more tame so the control is much nicer and smoother.
The biggest problems you hear are USER related to where someone didnt calibrate it right, didnt calibrate after the firmware update,or running a Tekin motor(noisey) as they interfere with the ESC and dont work properly as almost any esc with have an issue with the tekin motor unless you run a tekin esc.
Granted not all problems are user related and all companies have their quirks but thats why i suggest FALCONSEKIDO.com as they have been great when i order and great when i email for info or updates PLUS THEY ARE IN THE US, WOOT WOOT!

Hi, is there anywhere to buy replacement rotors for hobbywing motors online? I put a 10.5t in my sc10 and within 3 mins sheared the rotor in 2. I've run both my old brushed silver can test rig and a novak 17.5t i had sitting around on the car since and nothing is binding so I'm hoping it was just a faulty rotor in the motor. But I can't for the life of me find somewhere to buy a replacement rotor. I've not had to replace a rotor before but I'm assuming it has to be the right part and I can't just stick any rotor in there??
Any ideas?

I recently purchased an XERUN 120A -1s esc from hobbywing. I ran it in a hyperdrive pro4 with no problems. This week I hit the pipe on the track and the ESC slid about 2 cm's on the chassis. The double sided tape didn't hold. Anyways, then the car stopped. The battery was still connected and the on/off switch was still on. I still had steering, but no throttle. It took a few minutes of turning it off and on even recalibrating before the throttle worked again. I thought I had the problem fixed but it happened again when me and another car hit together. This time just turning it off and on worked to get the throttle working. Has anyone run into this type thing before? Does anyone think it is an ESC issue or something else. The reason I'm asking about the ESC is because it is the newest thing and the motor has been running excellent.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,

An unfortunate circumstance caused by driver error leads to a broken ESC. Why would this be covered under warranty?

i just intalled XERUN SCT PRO 120 sensored combo with spectrum dx3c s300 receiver
scte truck ran about 4-5 minutes then throttle power went away truck would not move had steering checked out looked good then would go full throttle again run a few minutes and slow down and stop not getting hot ?

When this happens, do the lights blink on the speed control? How about turning it off and back on, does that help?
Before you try a million things, I can tell you that changing the punch mode or the LVC makes no difference, and and adjusting the timing in the esc and motor might help slightly, but I haven't figured this out either.

It's not LVC. I can hook my battery up to the charger and I have 3.9 volts per cell at least. On a 17.5 motor with the gearing I'm running, it should run 20 minutes and this happens after 4 or 5 minutes.
