For those that want to know more specs before commenting...we don't have full specs yet, but they'll be 1/10 2wd offroad buggies, will get used on both 1/10 and 1/8 tracks to race (not bash), and we expect to be running something in the 7.5-9.5 range for motor with 2s lipos. I'd also like to be able to use the same ESC in a 1/10 4wd buggy that I hope to build as well a while after.
pricing will be 25% more than the 2.1v 120 amp retail pricing being a new product and research and development costs which need to be paid that will be the pricing .

The v3 will be perfect for your 1/1oth buggies both 2wd and 4wd .

The esc will be released a few weeks after the titc event when production ramps up .

its worth the wait .
