Axial Exo Terra Buggy

[Rcjunky2002]

Hi guys I'm new to the forums and i am just now getting into this new axial exo terra buggy and built it as a kit. I am looking for suggestions on brushless setup for it. Can anyone help? I'm not a racer i just like to run in my yard. Running 2s and 3s.

I run the VXL setup in mine, works great.

How are your temps and how does it run? Is it torqy? And is it fast?

Castle mamba system. My friend just upgraded his hpi blitz with he castle and its a whole new truck now. Tons of power and speed also very good temps. For sure having to upgrade driveline parts and tires already after just a few days of bashing.

Id probably put a Castle Sidewinder/3800kv in it myself. or something comparable from Tekin if you got the extra money.

^^^^Get one of the MMP combos, probably the 4600 would be best, plenty of torque. Get it today while it's on sale, $139 is an amazing deal!

I am also wondering the same thing. I found a combo for the velineon with esc and a 2075 servo for $125. Is that a good deal?? I want it to go at least 35 mph but even higher would be nice. Whats the best value?

I would say a Mmp or a tekin rx8 and a tekin motor. Had a Mmp in my scte and it went out on me, hear there prone to glitching after hard hits. I'm running the rx8 with a pro4 3300kv in now and it hauls, of course its my race truck. There is a guy that races with us that has the rx8 with a tekin pro4 4000kv and its stupid fast. I would say for bashing go with the tekin combo with a 4600kv, you wont. be sorry. It is spendy but worth it. Just make sure you gear it right and or run a motor fan. Good luck.

Personally as of now I don't plan on racing mine so spending $300+ for a motor and esc is just to much. What do you guys think of this combo:

seems like a steal!!

That's a good deal. I know a couple guys who run the TenShock stuff, and they say it's pretty good.

I would suggest the 3500 or 4000 kv combos

I found the v2 version for the same price

It comes in 3400, 3800, 4400kv. I've never run brushless before...how much of a difference would there be between the 3. I don't want to have to worry about over heating, and I might run 3s at some point (not sure)

High kv = more speed
low kv = more torque

The Exo Terra is 4wd, so I would choose torque over speed. I would probably choose the 3400 or 3800 kv.
