Don't know how your rigs set up, so I suggest a Castle creations sidewinder...

ive bought two new traxxas evx2's on ebay for pretty cheap, one was like $30 & the other was around $46 with motors..

sandblaster... you wouldn't happen to have a link to those auctions do you? I've been looking around for an EVX for a little while. Thanks, PM me

P.S. - for my clod, I have a single rooster, but I want a bit more power and run-time so I think I am going with the Emaxx EVX2 or eSavage GT ESC. Twin batts and torquey 550 cans.

I have heard the moped v16 is a good esc for the clods. If you want the traxxas just do a search on ebay for the traxxas evx under radio controlled accesories.

I've got the new EVX2 16.8 volt waterproof esc for $115 at a local hobbyshop, and it works great.

dont wast you $ on the other escs that dont have a drag brake
you can get a sidewinder for around 75$ and a bec for around 20$,
as long as you have windows xp, wont work with all vista

Yeah I also run a moped V16r bravo is the model. This thing it great. light weight small as a book of matches, smart braking, forward and reverse. No computer needed. has a 1 button setup. you can catch them on ebay sometimes for $22.00 buy it now. handles just about any motor setup. Down to 10 turns. and Handles my 2 65t without blinking. They also make another one called the Elite for down to 7t motors

I run a Rooster crawler on 8 cells 55t motors. Run a external bec.I recommend castle.8t front pinion to minimize clod stall, 7t rear
but keep enough to search for traction.
