I'm soon ready with my RC8.2E and now I must choose which motor and ESC to buy. I have looked at Tekin, LRP and Castle Creations. What have you others racers used and what are your experiences?
What is best and why: low KV or high KV?

My Kit didn't come with any of the Shock boot Washers (89352)
Do you guys know what it's measuring for the servo Saver? It says 7mm but man does this look tight. (I know servo saver tight and this thing is 1mm from locked down under the 7mm measurement.

It says 7mm in the manual. from AL collar nut, to bottom of plastic servo saver.
The measurement given is the actual spring compression, not how much is sticking out of the end of the nut on the other side.
Edit: I'm just going to use your 2-3mm on the bottom threads and bag it. Thanks Bohdi

Built my 8.2e Tonight.
Kit was missing:
All 4 Shock boot collars
(at this point I started paying very close attention so I did not lose the following)
2 3x8 screws
1 outdrive o-ring.
Awww...
Either way. Very involved build. Very pleased to be done. Now i'm waiting on a Backordered Tekin RX8 / 1700kv Combo.
