Bus: You can get a castle mamba pro, it does the same thing as the tekin rs, 17.5 or 13.5 it makes both feel like a mod motor.
Dave, I was so close to buying the Castle Mamba max pro. But just in the last 2 weeks I have heard so many horror stories about this ESC. Granted I dont have all the facts as to what happened. But a guy at Real-RC was telling me about how awful their warrenty service is. And how the guys tried to screw him over. Then Nelson, Dustin was having problems from theirs glitching, clogging. ect.

So I dont know. Anyone hear anything great about the new Novak esc? Does it do the same as the Tekin?

no problem here with my castle mamba pro and I've had it a long time. Plus the warranty service is actually pretty good.

if i get my buggy fixed then i'm gonna want to do 13.5 buggy, stock core class, and MMAAYYBBEE mod 4 wheel? Dunno yet about the 4 wheeler, i haven't ran it in soooo long? I still want to have a fun feature like a helicopter race in there some day! I can come up with some inflatable pylons, hang them from the ceiling and have the first one to go around the pylons 5 times wins or something??

Talked with Jake earlier, and I am running the races tonight. Jake told me 7PM start time, but we'll figure that out when the time comes around. I'm going to be at the track around 2pm Jake is there right now.
