| ESC and Motor Combo
Just wondering what everyone is running for ESC/Motor combos in your Mega Trucks. I'm Just starting building mine and have been struggling with the ESC/Motor combo I want to run. So I would like to hear what everyone is running. Thanks, Opie |

150 amp trackstar esc hooked to a 4250 4 pole trackstar motor. I'm running a summit 2 speed trans so it's good in first gear but it is fawktardedly fast in second. I run 3s also so that doesn't help much. |

Still undecided on what to run in my build. I was thinking about the 1/8 scale CC Sidewinder combo. Anyone have any experience with it in a mega/monster truck?

Its looking I'm going to have the choice of the Vanguard (yeti/SW) or MMP with an unknown KV motor at this time (Haven't got the motor yet but it looks to be a 2400KV.) or the Vanguard 3150KV. I'm leaning towards the Vangurd with the 2400kv motor on 3s and save the mmp for a different project.

I run the MMP esc in my mega trucks, one has the Tenshock 550 3500KV 4 pole and other has a Tekin 550 7.5 SC4X 2 pole. I use 7.4 5000mah packs which works great with my gearing. The 4 pole has more torque |

I'm going to run a summit 2 speed trans with a Kershaw twin 700 series motor setup. Going to run a stock summit ESC cause it's waterproof. Will run on 4S (2 - 2S batteries). Should be killer torque in low gear and killer wheel speed in high gear. Wes |
