anyone have experience with these products ? Looks like Tower is going to be carrying some combos and chargers.



Chargers look trick

well tower now has some combo's in stock. Gonna have to pull the trigger on a10.5

Back in the day, I used GM racing speedos.. They had the best brakes of any speedo back them. Great throttle, and could handle any motor. I am sure the products are still top notch.

Well I ordered a 10.5 combo and hope to have it in time for next weeks race. Had to order the program card from Openhobby.com

I use the Graupner EX charger Now it is Great gives you all the info anyone could need on a battery..
Agree with JimmyG.. GM speedos where top of the line and am sure they are still today..sometimes I miss the brushed days ..

Those chargers look nice and would love to see one in action. Not sure I would use all those features but must be nice to have the option.

lol bro i do not miss brushed at all, well maybe it is just the Nimh batteries I hated. But one or the other sucked lol

I have a polaron pro charger and it is awesome and dose every thing you could want and can program your speedo I highly recommend the charger

How do you program your ESC with the charger ? That is pretty slick regardless lol

Well got the ESC/Motor combo in today Camera is old (like me) but here is a few pics

I ordered the same 10.5 combo from tower. Had a steering servo that shorted internally and ESC never came back on. Tower exchanged the part no questions asked. After that a customer support guy from oppenhobby called me and had me explain exactly what happened and told me if I had any problems give them a call. Getting the replacement ESC/motor combo in the mail today so hopefully it was just a bad egg. Anyways great customer support from both tower and open hobby on this one.

I have been following Graupner on their airplane products and got a transmitter. They have some nice products so no reason these would be different

I had to snag one of those 80r turbo combos from tower , seemed like a good deal to me. so far so good , i have not rung it out at the track yet but i will this weekend and report back. anybody tried to program this thing without the ''box'' yet ? $10 to ship a $25 box seems a little crazy to me . wonder why tower don't carry the programmer is beyond me

I found the program box on amazon for about $8.00 the shipping was free with one of those amazon offers. Programing withount the box is a PITA.

The charger looks nice but it seems like it doesn't measure IR like the iCharger. The combo together with the power supply looks good though

Thanks bro , i didn't even think about amazon

checked ebay and amazon with no luck
