Best brushless combo

I really like my 3500kv 540 puller , building a 2nd Wraith trying a roc 412 3100kv and Tekin RS GEN2

Yeah we did get it to hold better then in video but it's not much. On that incline it would hold but if I tipped it up an inch it would start to roll.. I don't want to gear down more taking top speed but if that's what will get it to hold I may have too.
Do to surgery I haven't touched it but if John or anyone has an idea I'll do my best to test it..

Here's mine.

Standard Puller, 3s, 18k switching freq, 12/56 gears with underdrives in both diffs and 150% drag brake. May still not be enough hold for you, but I prefer a slow creep on inclines. Perhaps the Stubby just doesn't have what it takes compared to the Standard. Have you tried the "Holmes Hold" option? I've only tried it with my brushed setup and it doesn't fit my style but assuming it works just as well for brushless, that may work for you.

That's pretty good for 150%. Honestly this is my first wraith so I'm not sure how much hold I want but if I want a strong hold then I need it to work.
I'm playing with it now and first off after sitting for about 2 weeks I had to rebind? Why? But I took this and reset tx to factory default and binded and calibrated. On my bench it feels stronger, I will need to set up an incline to test but I'm feeling good.

I'm pretty sure Holmes Hold is on the brushed controller only.

I'm running brushless on the Trailmaster BLE Pro, and I've only seen settings for brake and drag brake.

Weird, I could have sworn that was an option but I just checked and you're right, it's not there.

Also need to correct the info above on my video, that's 110% drag brake, not 150%.

[SCREAMER]

FWIW, I'm running the same motor, gearing, and voltage as Hahns and at 30% drag brake I have the same slow creep on inclines as he does with 110% drag brake. The only difference is I'm running an MMP.

[JohnRobHolmes]

Hahns is running 18k frequency which reduces drag compared to lower frequency.

I'm new to this site but went with the roc412 and paired it with an Orion Pro r10 ESC, for my wraith spawn kit... I am running 56/12 and have overdrive 36/14 HD ring and pinions front and rear and it still holds! (@20% drag brake)

It would be awesome to see an unbiased shootout between the top 2 or 3 motor/ESC options and how they perform in key areas (including hold). Now that would be something of value for everyone.

I am going to pick up a puller pro BL 3500 (WP) to see the difference. Anyone know how the trailmaster BLE Pro (WP) ESC stacks up to tekin or Orion? Assuming it is fully programmable - do you need a PC for tuning etc? Also is the WAterproofing good enough to handle being fully submerged? Thanks
