which is better TEKIN or NOVAK ?
 

I was wondering what you guys opinions were on the fxr pro setup and the novak rooster or goat setup ON AN AX10? And has anyone use the tower hobbies ts-170 servo? Good or bad?

I don't know about Tekin , but the Novak Goat systems are badass."thumbsup"

I love my fxr. It is buttery smooth, and super adjustable. Don't buy something that will limit you to 2s.

fxr in all my stuff

....
 

FXR is tiny and takes 3S lipo if you have a 35t or higher. Very easy to program with seperate LED's for each setting.

I havent had a Novak crawler ESC, but if its programing has the same light system that my GTB has, it is very annoying

Novak is way behind only allowing 2s.:evil:

Sounds like the fxr is the way to go! Is the pro worth the extra money? What is the diff. between it and the regular fxr?

just between those two...FX-R hands down. mind a few other sugestions?

If your strickly going brushed take a look at this....

Edit to add,

I haven't used the ts-170... it's the same as the hobbico cs-170 or the hitec HS-5955TG... it should do you just fine.

Pro is not needed unless you have some bad A** motors with a lot of draw. I run just a regular FX-R in my Berg with twin tekin 45T's with no problems. If you plan to run a 3s lipo you need a B.E.C

The goat is offered in 2s and 3s."thumbsup"

thanks for the input guys "thumbsup" i think i am going to go with the reg. fxr since the pro is not really needed. i am just going to do the occasional comp and prolly run in the sportsman class. i will only be running 2 cell lipo anyway! does this sound good?

yeah i figured the servo was the same as the hobbico and hitec! people seem to like it so i guess that is what i will go with

What motor you planing on running? with 2's lipo i'd go with a nice 35T for the wheel speed...45T or 55T will work as well IF you don't like very much wheel speed"thumbsup"

i have an fxr on my moa and love it, i am running holmes 30t torquemasters on 3s on my bully. i have tons of wheel speed to help me grip those slick ledges.:twisted:

I run the fxr. I used to run a rooster when I first got into crawling. I think the Rooster is like the gateway crawler esc. The fxr is for people that really want adjustability. Cant stress this enough, the fxr does allow 3s but better run a BEC or you'll be hitting thermal all day long.

TEKIN no questions asked, its the best crawling esc out there! In my opinion Ty rock rebelz

They are both great brands but in my area the Castle items out sell the others 6 to 1. I sell alot of Sidewinders. Check it out. "thumbsup"

FXR "thumbsup""thumbsup""thumbsup"

I agree with this also. I also have a sidewinder. Great esc and very affordable.

i dont think there is a need for 3s so i will get the fxr and run a nice 45t so i can still crawl but still have some decent wheel speed.
