Hello and welcome to the final video of my Tamiya MF-01X entry in the brushed class of the @poorboysrc Speed Run Challenge 2024. This time I have rewired the new motor from Peak Racing, a Jaguar 11x2T and replaced the burnt out ESC. On the final run that ended in disaster I fitted a Hobbywing 0880 dual motor ESC in the hope of delivering more Amps!
As you will see in the video I tried so many times - each time it was not just the same setup, always a different motor, gearing or ESC. That's what made it so frustrating, so many different setups and exactly the same speed!?!?! 😅👍
As always many thanks to the legend that is @robbrennanrc on the camera and witty commentary!
