  • This is a quick update on my VRX Racing Cobra 'brushed-to-brushless' conversion. After upgrading the motor & ESC, you can usually look forward to doing other upgrades or repairs because of the extra speed and the added stress to the frame, drive train and suspension components. So far, so good and she's running fine!!!

    Good job DJ, that thing is really fast.Just about every time that I upgrade to brushless, I usually put metal geared servos on because of the extra power you get. BTW, I don't know if I told you but I have been waiting on the Fimi X8 SE to come and it finally showed up today but because of the snow we got, I will have to wait a few days to fly it. POW!!!

    • @DJSOULFORCE

    That thing rips. Looks like tons of fun. Take a look at the Flysky FSGT-3B,. 10 model memory and receivers are dirt cheap. Excellent range.

    Theres a fr sky gt3 transmitter and its about $30 and its got 10 model memory but it means changing yr receivers again or just do the rest of yr trucks with the gt3 that aint combined esc n receiver may help u out and they are an ace transmitter for the money i bought 2 of them

    • @DJSOULFORCE
      @DJSOULFORCE  Před 4 lety

      Thanks for the feedback bro. I went with the DumboRC transmitter/receiver combo, which BTW is also around $30 bucks, because it's claiming the best range of them all (over 500 meters). It's a bit of an inconvenience not having the model memory, but I can get over it, lol!!! I do have my eyes on that Hobby Porter TX/RX combo but I'm not sure how much the extra receivers cost... still researching!!!

      Thanks for watching and your question. Sorry, I did not do an official speed run, but I estimated it's speed at around 38 - 40mph. I only put a 100A ESC in it, so I'm a little worried about running it on 4S!!! As of today, I think I'm going to decommission this car... parts are very hard to find and it keeps breaking down!!!

      Just based upon my experience so far with this car, I won't recommend buying it. It's a nice vehicle, however, you're going to find that the VRX Racing parts are extremely hard to find in the U.S. and AliExpress is the only place to find them. Good luck bro, thanks for watching!!!
