Brushless Upgrade
Hey everyone,
I recently upgraded my 2wd HPI Blitz. I swapped out the stock brushed motor/esc setup and replaced it with
the Castle Creations Sidewinder Sport brushless motor/esc. I am so happy with this. The speed, the power
and able to use lipo is great.
Is there a way to tweak it so it wont pop wheelies when I hit full throttle?
Just curious.

I run Castle Creations MMPs, but never had the priveledge to run any of their sports models.
You should be able to "tone it down" by using the sub-trim on your controller, or, if it is programmable like a MMP, you should be able to set the throttle/ punch control to 50% or somewhere near that as a start.

What gearing, which motor?
loosen your slipper a hair until it stops yanking the front wheels up, but the most important thing is throttle control.
