|  ESC's!!!
Alright so there has been a few different post saying they have used different esc's in there mrc, but I am tired of looking through them to figure it out again so I will create this thread. My esc took a crap and it will be at least two weeks before they send me a new one so I just want to get everyones opinion on a different one to add. Anyone??

The Tekin FXR is a great esc and it's tiny, like stated above. You can run up to 9 cells"not that you would in a MRC" or 2-3c li-po.

I guess this is one solution to all the people that have destroyed their aftermarket servos due to the stock losi ECS. This thread is good news, I have been searching through all the losi mini threads to figure out why so many of the aftermarket servos people are trying are getting fried, I guess it's because the losi ESC just can't handle full size servos (BEC). The ESC in this thread look great and a positive solution to frying new servos with the stock losi ESC. This is also good because my losi servo just died yesterday.

The FX-R and B1R are in my opinion the best choices out there for minis.

I assume since switching the electronic speed control seems to be no problem, switching the receiver should also be ok?

I think the CC sidewinder-mini, is a little cheaper. 60 to 70 $.
