I recently purchased a Turnegy 1 cell ESC and I hope you can tell me if this ESC has a problem holding bind. When I pull the trigger I see the ESC full throttle light, but the motor does nothing. If this is common with this esc I would like to know.

Sometimes the switch can be iffy. It is best to disconnect the battery and start over, if you have problems.

Did a bit more work on updating the old Gen X. Made some battery holders to relocate the lipo, as well as a new front shock mount. Nothing fancy....just used a hack saw, round file, and drill press. Quick and dirty. I will make new parts out of carbon fiber once I'm happy with a design.

I just switched to a Savox 1250 with the Macpappy case mount http://www.mcpappyracing.com/store/products/Savox-Servo-Case-Core.html it fixes the centering mounting issue the servo has and makes for a lightweight and secure mount. Bolts right up to chassis drilled for standard mini servo holes (JR 3650, Futaba 9650, KO 951 holes). Before this I was running a KO 951... Couldn't tell the difference between which is a good thing.

Also about the weight it adds to that servo. If anyone can measure that it would be great!

You're right. Learned something new today, CRC distributes BlackArt bodies, which is a separate entity.
Their website still lists that 1/12 scale tub chassis that I think was tested and determined to be no good years ago. I still think it looks cool.
