Great vid! The lead coming off the esc is for a hobbywing motor, the esc can read the temp when paired up. Im using a max10sct combo with a hobbywing 3660 (550) 4000kv on my hpi blitz and its fast on 2s!
jpsnowrider hey I am new to hobbywing. I just got an sc8 for my rustler and I want led to ask you if I really need a program card for it or can I just program it manually with my transmitter?????
I got 75mph with my EZ run max10 ESC and a 4000kv ez run hobby wing motor with a 76t spun and a 31t Pinion with a 5200mah 50c 3cell batter (Lictron). With DX3 remote. Any idea on how I can get it up to 100 to 150mph? Plus I rebuilt the transmission with all HR parts like the seal differential. All harden still gears!
Bakerboyzzz RC I just keep it lowkey lol I’ll sneak over to the hobby shop and I’ll just say one of my friends bought me the parts 😂😂😂😂😂 or just hide the parts depending how small/big they are, or even I’ll just say I had the part, just never used it lol. Ayy there are plenty of ways to get around this type of stuff 😂😉👌👍🤟🏼🤙😁🤣😅😀😆😃🙄😑🏒 bash on brother
The small plug is for the motor, it is a heat sensor. You don't have to use it but it helps to protect the motor from over gearing, like if you were trying to make a traxxas do 100mph or something. :)
@@alfa7108 Actually, from both gamer and rc hobbyist perspective, I think he should get into the rc hobby, he has nothing to lose if he has the budget. Personally I think gaming is much boring as it gets too competitive these days most of the players are toxic, but it is atleast good for racing sims. It's really good to see more people are getting in this hobby, it's pretty friendly and peaceful to work on your rc car for better performance rather than fighting endless hordes of creepers
Running the stock Tires on 3S, the Rusty vxl will run 76MPH. Just remove the rear Spoiler, and flip the front Bumper over. Gear it 31-76 and 76MPH is pretty easily achieved.
I had stock tires on my vxl and on 2s one over ballooned and stripped off one side and then ballooned more and wiped out lucky it didn't hit anything. No I have trenchers and they handle fine about to go to 3s.
for me, the sct combo is 150 aud, and the sc8 is 100 aud only for the esc. i was thinking of going for the castle combo and then upgrading my esc later. So what motor would go with the sc8 for under 200aud
Amistry20 I have my sc8 in a 2wd with the hobbywing ezrun 3660 4000kv. Great motor and I have even run it up to 4s lipo. Stays real cool and then you have everything waterproof. I think that should stay in your budget
yes! i had changed my mind to that! i am definatly gonna go with the sc8 but with what motor would i get same speeds as velineon with? how fast does yours go?
you'll definitely get more speed out of the hobbywing combo. I dont own a velineon system but i do know that when people gear them up they often overheat or burn out easily, and thats on 3s. with my combo geared up on 4s, and keep in mind hobbywing does not say that the motor can take 4s, it stays very cool and i have no doubt that I could go at least 70mph maybe even 80-90mph or more with timing turned up and more gearing. Also if and when you want to go faster hobbywing makes several motors that are slightly larger and could handle some serious speeds, without totally breaking the bank. hope this helps!
Nice, i was thinking of going with a tenshock sc401 or a castle 3800kv. I have heard some bad things about hobbywing motors getting quite hot, but if you can get those speeds, i might go with a hobbywing. Did you have to modifry the chasis/ drivertain to fit the motor?
I have a question, I got a rustler and on 3 s only it’s a monster. I have been destroying my u joints and I do have bigger heavier wheels but my universal joints are getting destroyed. Have any ideas on a fix
BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT really? Because i have 3s on a 3000kv motor and it doesn’t go nearly that fast. Plus my rc is super light, definitely lighter than the rustler
Those badlands sure as hell wont take that kind of abuse if you are going to attempt 100 mph you will need some pro-line primes or some thing like that. Just get some street tires.
Ok first what is that body sorry? Also that will probably not do it on 4s even with gearing you will probably just bern up the motor or esc also what you need solid tires to do 100mph!!
Kevin Talbot omg they don’t sell the body no more can you sell me one Kevin I just got a brushed rustler but I’m about to go brushless an I wanted that body smh
man you make these things look cool - I remember the scene in the 80s with no lion/lipo, no nitro, no ultra cheap chinese gear, it's proper stuff now, cool.
Hi Kevin I have a traxxas rustler 2wd vxl but I don’t know what pinion gear to run I’m currently running the one it says on the parts Manuel because it used to be a brushed car! It keeps blowing out tyres What pinion gear should I go for Cheers
Ok I just put an RPM front widening kit on my Rustler VXL to where I can run the same wheels all aroind,Which would be better 4 fronts or 4 rears? Before I installed the Rpm Kit I bought some Duratrax Six packs and the front wheels wouldn't fit my Rustler it was like there was no hex fitting in the front wheels...so it's got my spooked because the Badlands are more expensive..

Since I've been soldering wires and parts onto PCBs for 18+ years, and I developed an interesting way to solder wires without using a tool to hold the part or another wire. I wrap the solder around my index/pointer finger, then hold onto the wire using my thumb and middle finger. Then I feed in the solder that's wrapped around my pointer finger. It's just faster when you have to solder loads of product for a costumer. Now, the people I work with use the method, some find it easier and some people took a week or so to get the dexterity to feed the solder in smoothly. It does take practice and tolerance to the heat that travels up the wire. I've been doing it for so long I barely feel the heat anymore from holding caps and resistors in place while soldering the legs.
Imma take a guess that this is the new rustler, I have one from 2005 when there was only the electric ones, been thinking bout getting a nitro one and was wondering if you have tried it
I think that little "extra" cable with a contact on is for the motor. If you have the motor from the same company you have a little temp sensor on it. It might fit in there
My rustler vxl won't do over 40mph it's got a new gearbox and the big black gear inside is now 83 and when I first had the gear box the car used to wheelie . The gear came loose so I tightened it up all the way then loosened it one turn like a CZcams video said and now it doesn't wheelie or seem as fast got the garmin gps attached. Any ideas anyone??
Does any one know if this would work better or even the same if i did this with a 4x4 rustler? Oh and was that a sort of tape he used to keep the esc there i really don’t know?
Aluminum hexes are a must when upgrading this thing or running on LiPos. I bashed my Rustler quite a bit and they stripped on me when the wheel nut came a bit loose. Don’t suffer the same fate I did. It made removing one of the front wheels so impossible I literally had to destroy it to remove it.
The extra wire on the esc is for the hobbywing motor coz I have the combo of this esc and that little wire plugs into the back of the motor, I think it's something to do with the esc monitoring the temp of the motor.

Brent Humphreys so do I it's crazy lol
That thing looks absolutely amazing. Good work!
The wire on the esc is for when you get a combo motor and esc and it plugs into the motor
the odd wire in esc is for compatible hobbywing motors to measure temperature and use the motor thermal shut-off feature in esc
How dont you have more subs? thats suprising I love your channel
You need to film a tour around your shop! It looks awesome !
I kinda want a Rustler now. That thing is cool.
Buy it then
This is an amazing video it’s insane how you get these things to go so fast.
A bit late, but that one wire is for a sensored motor. Temperature cutoff
Trent Rensburg and I’m even more later butttt, by the looks of wire it looks to be a fan instead
Ali_M Gaming temp wire for motor.
I cam confirm , bit this one also works for the sensorless .. i have a Ezrun combo that came with this plug and plugs right in the motor
Stef Willems confirmed, same combo here. This is for the ESC to read the motor’s thermal sensor.

Best intro "Just had some sh** show up" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
3:48 that spare wire is what you plug into the motor, its a temperature checker
. Hey whats with the antenna being that short??? Plz explaine
That cable on the esc could be for programming it or it you have a sensed motor I'm not 100% sure
yeah, it should be for the motor temp thingy
Can anyone tell me if that programming box works on anything. I have an ESC and motor coming but im not sure what I can use on it?
Will turnigy lipos fit in the stock rustler Vxl or will i have to mod it?
So that thin wire is to plug into some motors that have temp sensors
ive got this esc / motor combo in my slash, the little cable goes in to a temp sensing port ion the HW motor
The extra wire on the esc is for the hobbywing motor coz I have the combo of this esc and that little wire plugs into the back of the motor, I think it's something to do with the esc monitoring the temp of the motor.
What kind of upgrades did you put in it i want to put that in my buggy
