forgive me if this sounds stupid.
is this too much ESC and battery for a VXL motor? I mean, can you over ESC a motor?
I am still figuring out brushless motors/ESC'S
They have a combo deal on the RF170 that includes the Totemic 9.5 motor and both the USB and P. box.
Mine just arrived by Fedex an hour ago. It sounds like you want a mod motor for outdoors, so that is a good deal. I really didn't need a 9.5 and would rather have a 17.5 or 13.5 for one of my indoor setups, but the deal was on mod motors and they looked too good to pass up.
