TA05R
Team Orion Vortex 3.5
GTB esc
Max Amps 5500mah 2S



In my first runs i managed to get it up to 57.5MPH and ran out of room. After about 10mins of running i could hold fingers on motor as long as i want I will get it on video with the radar gun.

They aren't, he just used a saddle pack instead of a brick pack.

I gotta say I like the buggy much better than the TA-05. Now if it were a TA-05MS, it might compare...but that buggy is sweeeeet!

It has an internal fan that actually blows out a lot of air.

So you guys don't have problem w/ things getting inside of the motor so far?

I mean, I know it has a fan and all.. but so does those 550-sized brushed motor.. and they get dirty for sure...

But if they stay clean, that's nice.. keep the temp down!

Even if dirt gets in it you can clean it by taking it apart which is only 3 screws. My motor temped at 115F after a bunch of full speed runs currently running 40/105 gearing

So Josh, you are running it in the sensored mode, right?! The motor works okay w/ the sensored ESC?!
