    Kyosho Ultima and nostalgia question!!

    OK can someone please explain this to me?? I’ve come across countless brushed 540 motor options, like from Holmes, turnigy, etc… can someone please tell me what the heck is the difference between a crawler motor and a non-crawler motor? I mean I know what an RC crawler is but can I use a crawler...

    Kyosho Ultima and nostalgia question!!

    Yes, it does have a low voltage cut off, is it OK to use a Lipo on a brushed motor though?

    Kyosho Ultima and nostalgia question!!

    Sorry to hit you guys with minutia questions, but there is so much out there. I have found a Kyosho 60A esc that apparently comes with their readyset line of vehicles that I can purchase as a standalone. It says it can be used with Li-Po.. (brushed only) I can’t see any reason why this won’t work?

    Kyosho Ultima and nostalgia question!!

    Well… I didn’t even think about the lcv with kyosho receiver…. Hmmm… would it make sense then to use Traxxas 540 motor, esc and reciever?? It’s a brushed motor but wondering if that might be an easy reliable solution

    Kyosho Ultima and nostalgia question!!

    Thank you for the welcome! There’s just something about the Ultima that brings back nostalgia! Thank you for the advice on the screw sorting. In regards to Kyosho motor and speed control, does Kyosho make modern 540s and speed controls ? And if so any recommendations? Forgive my naivety, but I...

    Kyosho Ultima and nostalgia question!!

    Yes, I would like to keep it brushed, but I don’t know the first thing about buying anything that hasn’t been ready to run like Arma and Traxxas, I would love some advice on what kind of motor, receiver, etc. All I know is it takes a 540. I do plan on using a 2S Lipo with it.

    Kyosho Ultima and nostalgia question!!

    Well nostalgia and funds is a bad combination!! I would love some advice from you Kyosho afficianados! So.. when I was a teenager in late 80’s / early 90’s we didn’t have much so there was no possible way I could have ever had the Kyosho Ultima . Fast forward 30 some odd years.. I see kyosho...
