Yes! Just got my 6.5 & 8.5's. They look great and bullet plugs are dialed. I tried other motors for a min, but hated breaking out the solder iron for maint.
Any idea when we will see a V4 17.5?
Still in testing.

Never in my life of being on hold have I been sent to an answering machine!!! Left them a message to call me back but when will that be??? Whatever happened to staying on hold until you could actually talk to someone "first call first serve style" So pissed with speed passion first time on the track and my motor fries and now I have to leave a message and hope to the rc gods they even return my call!!! By the time they do call back even if they do I will already have ordered a new motor!!! And I tell you this it won't be a speed passion motor!!!!!!
Sorry to hear about your experience. Alot of businesses do this. Hope you didn't just give up after one call/email.
I understand your frustration, but I think anyone here can tell you they've had stuff go bad out the box. I had a LRP speedo, a motor, and Futaba speedo go bad right out package. Had a Hitec charger go bad as well after little use. The speedo was taken care of through Horizon, the motor no luck through LRP. Hitec was out of warr and Futaba took a month to get back in the day. I wouldn't hesitate to use any of these brands now. I use 2 Hitec chargers now.
