I bought the same truck returning back to the hobby and did the same, with the spectrum motor and speed controller in one, although I converted it to 4wd. It wakes this truck up completely. I did put a 2 tooth larger pinion though and I get mine up to 48mph with a spectrum 50c battery. Plenty fast enough imo for 1/10 scale. The car is a lot of fun in front of my house or at the park. Very durable. I thought buying the boost was a way to tinker more. Now I just bought ProLine arms and a new set of wheel and tires.

What voltage battery are you running? I have the same motor/ESC combo in a Dirt Master and I'm totally confused now after reading the instructions for the ESC. The battery I bought with everything is a 35C 7.4v LiPo, not sure if its 2S or what? Spektrum Firma 85A instructions say it's programmable for 6.0v LiPo or 7.4 NiMH? Would you happen to know if I need a different battery? Man this stuff was much more straight forward 35 years ago!

I’m running an 11.1V 3S battery. Your battery is a 2S if it’s 7.4V. I think the 6v you’re talking about is for BEC which is the voltage that goes to your servo and any other accessories like a cooling fan or lights. You wouldn’t need a different battery but if you want to go faster, I would run on an 11.1V 3S battery.

I am a bit confused with the spektrum 85A ESC & 4000KV Brushless Motor Combo. On their website it shows that the ESC is ok to run a 2S or 3S battery but it also says the motor is only ok to run a 2S. Have you had any issues using the 3S batteries with this setup? It seems to run just fine on 3S for you. Its pretty fast with a 2S but I would really like to run a 3S battery I have but I am afraid to burn the motor up lol

@@Shreddylife valid concern. I have had no issues running 3S with mine. Just keep an eye on temp’s especially if you’re running in grass or have it geared up a little. I mostly run on my dirt track. Gets a little warm but I’m also geared a little higher too. If you’re planning on running stock gear sizes then I wouldn’t worry as much. Not saying running 3S is the right thing to do.

Some folks will go with the Boost line up because they wanna build up something faster than the blx 3s. Also the blx spektrum radio controller is laggy from what I hear..Ao either blx or boost he'll still need a new controller. So the BLX 3s isn't all that good to begin with. I got the Vorteks Boost and got the 4x4 kit and also got a spektrum 120A(4S) with a 2400kv spektrum motor and imo I think that's better than the BLX 3s and I spent about 30 bucks more then getting the blx and I did that in pieces not all at once and for some thats a good thing.

3s BLX don't got no AVC either. I don't see why you made that comment. I wouldn't have gotten the boost either as brushed motors belong in the Medieval ages, where they were invented, but your comment doesn't make sense because 3s BLX ain't got no AVC. The AVC receiver on its own costs $92 from Jenny's, then you gotta buy the DX3. BLX line comes with SLT3 and baby 3 channel receiver, or is it 2 channel? I forget, mine is in the garbage now, it was a spmslr300 and it was about as nice as a turd with seasoned salt on it. IMO the Boost trucks should be rollers, because brushed systems are disposable, and probably the only reason they're included is because it would cost Arrma more money to ship them to a landfill. But most RC channels treat the Boost series as rollers anyway, that's why he did it, for content for the KZitems, and to teach small children how to wrench on RCs. You buy a BLX off the bat and you ain't got no video except an unboxing, of which there are already 100 elsewhere. Why you can't understand things yourself is beyond me.
