So I just picked up a 4.1 World's roller and I'm looking for some ESC suggestions. I'll be running a Revtech 10.5 turn sensored motor. From reading thru the thread, it seems the newer MMP's with the attached fans don't fit too good without mod's being done. And I'm not really in a position to spend RS Pro type money. So I'm looking for some other suggestions on ESC's that I might be able to get in the $100 - 150 range. If I have to go to a RS Pro or a Venom to run the Revtech, I will. Just don't want to shell it out if I don't have to.
Thanks guys.
Thanks guys.

I will 2nd the rs, but several guys locally have gone w/ the viper. I got to mess around w/ one recently & was very impressed. I like their pro card, it's very easy to use & a lot more convenient than a laptop you need for the rs. On the other hand, nothing beats tekins customer service!

gearing suggestions
I'll soon be running my B4.1 buggy. Using the Viper vxt 10 w/13.5t motor. Indoor red clay track that is VERY technical. Lots of twists, turns, whoops, and jumps. Longest straight away is prolly less than 50 ft. Dimensions are 90'x50' with a claimed track distance of ~480'.
What would be a good spur/pinion range for me to start? All help is appreciated as I'm a nooB racer and in particular to 2wd buggy.

Hey guys just wondering about weight. People talk about the lipo weights, my lipos are Nano tech's and they don't seem to be light at all, don't think I need any weight in the rear. Someone suggested last night that I need weight in the front. My question is how exactly do you decide when you need to add weight?
