Default Which should I buy?

I'm going to buy a new Esc and it's a toss up between a Speed Passion reventon pro or a Dualsky XC870TF. There not too far off price wise so which should I buy?

I have been using the Speed Passion Reventon Pro and seems easy to use and program and never let me down yet. Have you looked at the Hobby Wing as they seem quite popular too.

Dualskys as very good been using them for 3 years with no faults in several cars. As some power, also recommend the programme box

You can't do this to me! I'm gonna narrow it to either a dualsky, team orion or a lrp flow. As my lhs have offered me a good deal on both the orion and lrp he's pricing the dualsky for me now.

Don't know what you're lhs was quoting on the LRP Flow but I recently bought one from MB Models and I think that they were about £125.

At the min I can get a lrp flow with 2 pairs of saddles for £220 but if I go in with cash I'm sure I can get some more off how is the lrp performing lee?

r10 pro
They are idiot proof and that's why I have two !! one in my Lazer and one in my RB6

Very easy to use and adjust with the setting box, I changed from Dualsky to the R10 and haven't looked back !!

Loads of power and smooth with it.

Good luck in choosing !!!!

The original program box works on the R10.1 just fine ;-)

I took advantage of the release of the R10.1 and purchased a brand new R10 pro at a good discount as the model shops want to shift old stock.

Not any more. Speed Passion Reventon is from a different manufacturer.

I've been informed that the revention has "reliability issues" so that's out the window I think I'm gonna go for the lrp

So I made my mind up and got time to go and collect my new Esc today.




And if I get time amongst all the house packing I'll get it soldered up and fitted over the weekend
