I don't think that one will work with the copperhead. Once won't I forgot which one.

Copperhead is a castle ESC, I run one in my SMT with a HH trailmaster 3200kv motor and program it via Bluetooth. Never any issues.

But the USB one is free with coupon.

Yeah I know doubt I will pay for Bluetooth when I can get that one free

 

[xxlostonexx]

oh crap, I missed that for you. yes sold separately but worth the money. You do get a free programmer coupon in the box. I bought one and used it to program more than 10 models. My buddies borrow it now and then. No prep, Crawler, and track racing short course and buggies. I love being able to do it with my phone wherever I am.

Running the Castle 1406-2850kv is the 13T pinion gonna give me to much speed or do I need to bump up to the 15T?

 

[xxlostonexx]

You would need to gear down to a smaller pinion if you looking for less speed. Volt up and gear down is the motto I live by.

So the 13T would be slower than the 15T? I want speed just not crazy speed

 

[xxlostonexx]

Yes. I run a 12 on mine. Good amount of torque and wheel speed. Nice middle ground. It all depends on what you want to do too.

Ok Thanks, I will try the 13T it comes with but I also ordered a 15T to try. But the 15T then may be too much

 

[xxlostonexx]

That’s the fun part. How you drive and where is all up to you! Good luck

Are there a Cheaper alternative to this combo that will do the same

Many people build Hobbywing Fusion Pro 2300... it is a very good alternative if you are not going to go beyond 3s

 

[xxlostonexx]

I 100% agree. There are cheaper alternatives. You can even go brushed with a Hobbywing 1080 and a HH Trailmaster motor for about $70. You will get everything you need and a reliable budget setup.

I ended up getting a Castle Creations 1406-2850 motor and copperhead esc. 164 on Amazon was a dang good deal

awsome! make sure you send in for your programmer. You get a coupon for one in the box. There are a lot of tuning options.
