Today on motor test Tuesday, we find out why the LRP Dynamic 10L motor kills ESC's.
I made this video after i ran the Tekno SCT410.3 the other week and the battery, which is an extremely high end Intellect 10,000mah LIHV, was getting to 60c after a full run. Its now clear why this was the case.
The Tekin RX8 i am using here is one of the few esc's that will handle this motor.

In this video i go through how i have set the reverse up on my Hyper MT Nitro. It is set up using the option part listed below as well as a JX Ecoboost CLS6336HV servo. This servo is overkill for the job, but i plan on using a LiFe receiver battery, so i would like to switch over to all high voltage servos.
The is also a running demo of the truck going both forwards and backwards when i am still breaking the engine in at the park. It is still running very rich, but you can see i am able to stop, switch to reverse, go backwards. Then go forwards again.
The reverse does add a lot of extra rotating mass as well as the extra servo, but i think when i am running in the woods it will be useful to have reverse. The engine should have plenty of power once tuned properly as well, so it should still be pretty quick and get into 2nd gear.

I got another Nitro MT with a Nosram .18 engine.
Still waiting on the Body for the Savage XS SS. Should i get this which is in stock while i wait for the standard clear body to arrive:

Hyper MT has been down for a while now, the drive shafts have still not been revised or fixed which is disappointing.
The Tekno is almost complete, but the wheels and tyres are taking forever to arrive.
The SMT10 will be going soon as i have ordered the Losi LMT! Super excited.
