ESC location
 

some are mounted in front of the motor or mounted behind the servo

is this just a choice thing or is there a balance issue?

mines behind the servo but it's coming out for replacement so may just mount it in front this time round

I run mine in front of the motor but only to make it easier to get the slipper out if I need to as you don't have the motor wires running over the front propshaft. Neatness wise it's better to have the speedo on the servo side but it makes the car harder to work on.
I've run the speedo in both places and not noticed any handling/balance differences ;)

as you found out @ Batley when you set up the diffs & slipper for me :D

may mount it in front this time round for the reasons given above

i run servo side with wires under the prop shaft.

Anyone got some install pics?

I know I haven't. I've taken the esc out :D

Glenn, why arnt you down the track helping tidy up? :rolleyes: im going in a min hopfully, if someone else comes :eh?:

PM'd

this thread is about ESC's

lets keep it that way

I have mine in front of the motor due to clearence issues. The body is slightly higher there and allows me to run the Sphere Comp with the heatsink no problem. There is a link to a thread I started over on b4.com a while back with a ton of brushless install pics.
