Tekin RX8 GEN2/Redline T8 1/8th Scale Buggy Brushless ESC/Motor Combo (2050kV)
Using this combo in my converted Losi 8ight...unbelievable! Great low speed control and smooth acceleration throughout. Almost scary amount of torque from the 2050! Great programming options with or without the Hotwire. With out-of-the-box ESC settings, on my first installed run, ripped 2 tyres into pieces on ashphalt!
