Speed is not what I aim for, I just need to find the sweet spot with this setup.
Working on the Vekta is very straight forward and it has been the best RC vehicle I had to work with hands down. One of the things is though that they can be heavy on the loctite, but it worked out fine.
Installing the brushless setup is thanks to this kit incredibly easy, and it beasically removes the need for relatively heavy mods to get to brushless on the Vekta.5
Came back from the States yesterday morning and wanted to directly build this thing in. Who can blame a fanatic?
Updates will follow, need to wait 2 weeks for the ESC, but we are patient...
