wraith brushless motor/esc help

[joelKID984]

heyy guys,

i am getting a wraith for christmas and and wondering on what motor to get for it. ill mainly be crawling/bashing offroad etc. Lots of people said to go with the HH BRXL w/ waterproof ESC and the HH crawlmaster 13T motor. ive been looking through this forum have have seen people use brushless systems for there setups, what is a good brushless setup for my needs, i have never working with brushless and have no idea when it comes to them.

Thanks,
Joel

This is not a bad section to post, but the Wraith section will have people that tried different combinations in your rig.

We have just begun shipping our Timbuk2--Wraith Edition BL combo, which has been customized for the Wraith

The Axial© Wraith™ 4WD Rock Racer has taken the trails by storm, and Novak has developed a brushless combo to bring out the full potential of this unique, rock-racing vehicle: the Timbuk2 Brushless System - Wraith Edition. This combo is especially suited for the Axial Wraith and other vehicles with a reverse-rotation drive train, and provides faster speeds, higher torque, and more control compared to a standard brushed system. With the Novak Timbuk2 Brushless System-Wraith Edition, there is no need to modify the vehicle’s drive train or program the speed control—simply install and enjoy its newfound power right out of the box!

WRAITH-SPECIFIC SOFTWARE

The tiny Wraith-Edition Timbuk2 ESC has been given its own set of default parameters that are suited for the vehicle’s unique drive train. Not only will the ESC rotate the brushless motor in the correct clockwise rotation, but also includes Novak’s exclusive Rock-Boost™. When the vehicle reaches full speed, Rock-Boost™ engages and electronic timing advance is applied to the motor. The Timbuk2 is the first ESC to offer electronic motor timing in BOTH clockwise and counter-clockwise motor rotation modes-another Novak first!

INCLUDED BEC MODULE

Since so many hardcore R/C enthusiasts own an Axial® Wraith™, Novak wanted to be sure the Timbuk2 system had the power you needed. The speed control’s internal heavy-duty 2-amp BEC works great with the stock components, and some heavy-duty servo upgrades. However, when the going gets tough, you may want a little extra juice for your servo and accessory lights. The Timbuk2 Wraith Edition combo also includes a super heavy-duty 5-amp external BEC module. You can run this module in combination with the Timbuk2’s internal BEC for a steering arm bending 7 amps of power!
