I bought the same truck returning back to the hobby and did the same, with the spectrum motor and speed controller in one, although I converted it to 4wd. It wakes this truck up completely. I did put a 2 tooth larger pinion though and I get mine up to 48mph with a spectrum 50c battery. Plenty fast enough imo for 1/10 scale. The car is a lot of fun in front of my house or at the park. Very durable. I thought buying the boost was a way to tinker more. Now I just bought ProLine arms and a new set of wheel and tires.
3s really wakes this rc up for sure 👍🏾
I was hoping for a little more out of the 2S but was happy with what the 3S did.
That vortex rips with the brushless motor! The 4x4 upgrade is going to make it handle so much better!
I am anxious to see how much better it drives on the dirt. I couldn’t really rip it to its fullest potential in this video because I just kept spinning whenever I would really get on it.
Awesome truck, dude! You brought it alive! 😃
It's alive... ALIVE! (Sorry, I couldn't resist! 😂)
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
It’s ALIVE!!! Love it now on 3S. It’s so much fun. Stay safe too!
3s all the way.
Fun truck, thumb up!
Oh yeah! It is now.
Nice
That was a close face-plant.
I have the stalk engine as of right now and I am running 6500 Zees Lipo batteries in her and even with the stalk engine this thing is quick but this weekend I will be installing the 4x4 kit for it
Cool. I’m going 4x4 as well. Seems pretty simple to do.
Recently bought this RC car this car upgraded to 4 x 4 and brushless an upgraded that I had laying around the spur gear to a steel with 0.8 mod. I hear that 48 pitch gears on that plastic spur gear usually shed off the plastic.
I just did a 0.8 mod upgrade to mine along with the aluminum gearbox. Running a 15t pinion and it runs much better now. Working on getting that video done today or tomorrow.
@@ReadytoRunRC Nice!!!
And on the weekend I just busted my front shock so I went to RCAWD and bought there oiled filled red shocks
I’ll have to give their shocks a try. I’m sure eventually that will happen to me too. I’m sure they’re a much better upgrade over stock.
I just bought the Brushless 3s Boost box . Could I still use my Zee 6500 lipos with this 3s motor?
Yeah. It’s a 3S system and you have a 3S battery.
What voltage battery are you running? I have the same motor/ESC combo in a Dirt Master and I'm totally confused now after reading the instructions for the ESC. The battery I bought with everything is a 35C 7.4v LiPo, not sure if its 2S or what? Spektrum Firma 85A instructions say it's programmable for 6.0v LiPo or 7.4 NiMH? Would you happen to know if I need a different battery? Man this stuff was much more straight forward 35 years ago!
I’m running an 11.1V 3S battery. Your battery is a 2S if it’s 7.4V. I think the 6v you’re talking about is for BEC which is the voltage that goes to your servo and any other accessories like a cooling fan or lights. You wouldn’t need a different battery but if you want to go faster, I would run on an 11.1V 3S battery.
did you use the stock pinion?
Yes
Why not put the reciever in the reciever box??
Good question. I will do that.
use a bigger pinion you will get alot more from that motor and esc ive got one in my buggy and im hittingnearly 60
I did. I went .8 Mod too. Hitting 50mph on a 15T pinion.
@@ReadytoRunRC what size pinion do these motors use im asking because mine came with one on it and i wanna buy another motor and esc but im not sure what size the moto shaft is do you know mate
@@baileyhowcroft3935 shaft size is 3.175mm
you have the worse luck with backward wiring ! lol stay awesome!
Lol it happens. Glad I had the program card this time to switch it around since I had the same thing happen on the Gorgon.
Why not just get the 3S BLX, you don’t even have AVC in that thing after spending all that money..why is the receiver not in the receiver box..
This was an odd video man.
Some folks will go with the Boost line up because they wanna build up something faster than the blx 3s. Also the blx spektrum radio controller is laggy from what I hear..Ao either blx or boost he'll still need a new controller. So the BLX 3s isn't all that good to begin with. I got the Vorteks Boost and got the 4x4 kit and also got a spektrum 120A(4S) with a 2400kv spektrum motor and imo I think that's better than the BLX 3s and I spent about 30 bucks more then getting the blx and I did that in pieces not all at once and for some thats a good thing.
