For a limited number of orders I am adding 18% off of everything in my "Motor speed controller" category. This includes all Castle and Tekin products currently in stock, with exception to CC bullets.

Enter "ESC" into my shopping cart in the coupon box, you may have to scroll down in the cart to see it.

This means Mamba Max's for $111! Tekin FXR for $82! Monster Max for $140! Don't let the deals pass you up before inventory or coupons run out!

Just to save John from having to answer this, this is where you ask John questions
(HH) Tech Questions and Customer support thread

If he didn't do it this way he would be looking in his PM box 24 hours a day and it would stay full. Just post up your question there and he will get right back to ya

Jeepial · 11-10-2008, 12:35 PM

FXR or the Mamba max?Wondering your opinion.This sale still going?

JohnRobHolmes · 11-10-2008, 05:25 PM

If it shows stock on the site, it is in stock.

I would choose the FXR for a comp crawler and a MM for a big rig or basher.

skellyo · 11-10-2008, 09:09 PM

Awesome deal John! Just ordered 2 MMM's!

mtnhrdgr2 · 11-26-2008, 11:40 PM

Thanks John. Just ordered a FXR and a CCBEC. Thanks for the deal!

Waiting patiently for some 35T handwounds to come in.

BigSki · 11-29-2008, 02:12 PM

I'm a bit confused about your handwind brushed motors. I've been using the 'standard' 55T motors. I'm ready to step up to one of your brushed motors, but would I need the same 55 turns or would I use less turns because of the higher quality in a hand built motor?

The motor will go into my comp rig that weighs about 10lbs. I'm running a stock Axial tranny with a 87t spur gear and a 12T pinion. I love the low end power I have now, but I'd like a bit more wheel speed on the top end without losing the slow speed control I have right now.

I plan on keep the Tekin FXR esc that I ran last year

JOOTZ · 12-01-2008, 08:33 PM

i did bro, got my FXR in today, best price on the net.

BigSki · 12-07-2008, 12:49 PM

RCPlanet has a screaming deal on the FXR/55t combo package, about $120, but I wanted to experience one of these handwound motors, so I used the discount and ordered a 35T torquemaster. It still seems like a good price, hopefully the motor will deliver the performance it claims to have.

Homes hobbys website could not have been any easier to use, thanks for making the shopping the easy part!
