I would recommend looking at a HW XR8 ESC. Sounds Cliche, but as an FYI you can contact them directly and they also sell re manufactured items with full warranty at a lesser cost. If not there are many for sale on here every now and then for a good deal. Also a Sensored Motor, like the SMC 1900KV is very good for its cost. This way you will be good to go, without really breaking the bank. And the XR8 in all forms is a great ESC, I have Raced it in Truggy and Buggy, no issues. My son runs it as well in 1/8 onroad.

Another thing to consider is that a Truggy puts a huge strain on any servo, so if the Servo has the specs, but as Roelof stated, can not be supported by the ESC / BEC its no use.


Best of luck, and have fun with the ET, its a great Truggy.
