Here is a video from one of our beta testers running it in the Kraton 8s with the stock motor:

and here is with a Sensored 2028 in the same truck:

He also put it in a Limitless and it went 121mph on 6s using our sensored 1515 2200kv. It pulled 330.7 amps to go 121mph and the ESC was still under 110F. I'm obviously biased but I have been incredibly impressed with this ESC. Think of it as a Max 6 for continuous current with peak currents higher than the Max 5 can do.



We haven't really talked about it, but yes we have been struggling to keep running for the past few years. Pivot has brought in a bunch of working capital to us and is helping us get back on our feet. We have a huge queue of backorders because we couldn't afford to buy the parts needed to build the products that people were buying. We are filling all of the backorders and will be refreshing many of our products this year to update all of our aging product lines. Look for big things to come this year from us.
awesome looking trucks
