I've been running a Fantom 4.5 - 550 motor on a GTB speed control. Yesterday was over 80 outside and after a 7 min. main and the rest of the pack of practice the motor was 160 and the ESC was 110. I've been really happy with this setup. Smooth and dependable. I'm running a 14/ whatever the stock 32p spur if and its and fast as electric 8th scale on the straights.
Managed to win the A and ran the fastest time of any short course by over a half a second per lap. I put the AE sway bars on the front and rear and the truck was definately more consistant. Really settled the rear end down.
I ended up using 2mm in front and 1.5 mm in the rear.
Can't wat for the next race.
