Post esc?

Does anyone know what a good dual esc and motor combo would be for a 1/8th rig? And about how much and where to get it.

Like others have said fxr is nice but I am a fan of castle because I think their brake is better than most

I looked at both of your suggestions, but is their anything that you would recommend that I would not have to spend $200 on? Cause I still need the motors as well.

Prolly not. MOA rigs are expensive.

You could get cheap crap. but noone is gonna recommend it

and if you get yourself a star, you could prolly find both ESC's with a BEC for way under 200 in the classifieds

OK. That is totally understandable, but nothing recommendable that comes with motors? Or would I be able to use the 55t's that I have?

Your motors would be fine. I don't run moa, so idk if that would be the preferred turn, but they will work.

I run dual 65t in my rig. Top speed is not fast but I have enough torque to brake stuff which I prefer

OK that's what I was wondering, cause I already have 2 540 motors. But just to let you know I'm only asking questions cause I an new to the crawling thing, all my other cars are built for speed. Thank you for theinformation though.

Fxrs are rubbish in a 1/8th rig.

The outcry is fine, it just isn't programmable. My uncle runs one in his super with no problems.
