Non-race electrics advice

[eyedebee]

Hi,

I've picked up a Ansmann X2 SC Pro whilst they are going cheap/available and plan to use it non competitively. I was racing 1/12 (brushed/NiMH) earlier in the year but sold up but the bug has bitten again and I just haven't a clue with LiPo/Brushless electrics :lol:

I'm looking to keep the costs low but would also like reasonable quality kit should I decide to expand my interest.

A friend has a SC truck and has recommended:


Ansmann W3 2.4Ghz radio
Fastrax Bullseye tyres (Wheels included in the kit)
Turnigy TrackStar 120A Brushless Short Course Truck ESC
HobbyKing X Car 8.5 Turn Sensored Brushless Motor
Turnigy 1259TG Digital Titanium Gear Servo 57g 16kg 14sec
Turnigy nano tech 5300mah 2S2P 50 100C Hardcase Lipo Pack

Does that all seem reasonable or do you have any other suggestions? I also need a charger as well and was considering an Ansmann xMove 2.0 Deluxe or Imax B6.


Any help much appreciated.....:thumbsup:

The HobbyKing X-car motors are sensored but, the 120a Turnigy SC ESC is a non-sensored unit.

The sensored Saker 90a ESC from GiantShark is the same price as the Turnigy ESC & will run down to a 6.5 motor so, given the X2SC is 2wd using a 540 size motor i'd have thought this with a 8.5 or even a 10.5 would work well.

Thanks for the feedback.
