Yes, all the same apart from the colour.

I prefer the 1S to the 120A v2.1 as it has a higher power RX supply (useful with todays greedy servos and to give solid voltage to PTs). The only thing they won't do is run more than 2s LiPo but for racing applications that doesn't matter a bit!

As for the size don't worry about it ... I run the HobbyWing ESC next to the servo on my FS2 and there is still room next to them for my Spektrum RX!!!

1st. How can you ask a question without using a question mark?<<<<

2nd. Pick a motor from the advise you've already been given, then look on the BRCA website to see if it's BRCA legal.

Let us know once you've recieved your 'XERUN' I'm still waiting for mine and can't get any answer from the supplier.

The order was placed with China around the 24th May by the supplier. So I would guess he should be receiving them this next week (rough guess of 10 days from China).
If you have preordered it will be sent out as soon as he has received them.

That is my understanding of it as I am waiting on mine also and am hoping for it the end of this week. [fingers crossed]

He had 10 showing in stock when I ordered mine. However it says on the info that these are 'pre-order' hence why you get the discount for buying early.
This was done so he could effictively start allocating stock before it arrived. I don't think it should be too long now. I'll possibly give him a ring in the week to check.

It still doesn't explain the fact that the Guy is reluctant to answer any messages that have been left for him.
Lets hope you have better luck getting an answer to your question than I do.

Right, Just spoken with Stuart at RIE and he says that he has people screaming for these but they are on there way.

Secondly give him time to try and reset the website and then the order code should work again. This may be later tonight or tomorrow (sorry can't tell you when he is doing it).

Hope this helps everyone.

Order direct from China, or try giving the Guy a call and order it that way?

DavidAMS did you get stung with Import Duty? I was looking at the XERUN-120A-SD (V2.1) on rcmart.

What is the after sales service like with RIE if you have a problem?

Racers in Exile are VERY responsive with after sales service, Stuart has recently made revised arrangements with HobbyWing which mean RIE will be able to deal with any issues faster than ever and you as a customer will be getting quality service.

RIE are very friendly and easy to deal with, when you ring you will get through to THE man, not passed around.

Stuart (who the mails at RIE go to) has been out in China arranging some interesting new product lines, I am sure he would ask you all to accept his appologies for slow e-mail responses whilst he was away.

He's back in full swing now, I got a reply in 17mins today and he returned my call within the hour yesterday too.

Different story here I'm afraid....
Still not got an answer from over a week ago now. I'll try again tomorrow.

His website now says delivery for 25th June? is this for another batch? or for the same batch from which my order was placed over two weeks ago?
