Anyone had/used one of these (either the LPF or GT one). How are they out of the box, and do they need programming with the handheld device?
Has anyones gone 'pop'?
Looking for a cheap brushless and the LPF fits the bill nicely.
Cheers

I use the GT, and I think its great. I love the programming card, you don't have to use it, but it makes life so easy.
Hasn't gone pop yet, but I don't think I've pushed it far enough yet!
I use it with the speed passion motors too, they are pretty gooc too, but I have nothing to compare them with.

It's all good.
I have four in total - 2WD, 4WD and a couple of touring cars. Very smooth which you need in 5 cell TC and 2WD especially.
The motors are very good also. I used to run LRP but will not be rushing back because I think the SP stuff is at least on a par.
Just make sure you read the instructions FULLY a couple of times and do exactly as they say and you will be fine.

I use the original GT and it's great, so easy to setup with the program card and with the series 2.0 motors and the losi motors with no problems at all:thumbsup::thumbsup:

I HAVE AN LPF AND I THINK ITS GREAT, ITS NOT THE BEST SPEEDO I HAVE HAD BUT FOR WHAT THEY COST TO ME THEY ARE GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY,
I HAVE USED BOTH SENSORED AND SENSORLESS MOTORS ON IT WITH NO PROBLEMS AT ALL, THEY ARE EASY TO PROGRAM AND SET UP SO FOR ME ITS A THUMBS UP AND I WOULD DEFINATLY HAVE ANOTHER.

I have a GT1.1, it replaced a GTB that went pop:cry:
Its never missed a beat running with Novak motors
Good support on the phone or web if you have questions which I did as the instructions were not the greatest
