small parcels from usa reach without problems/customs 9 out of 10 times within 2 weeks . tower parcels are generally so big that u can fit double the items u bought .

so what you trying to convey is that the tower parcel which i booked is too big and will get get caught in customs net

tower parcels are bigger than it should be . small amount(note-amount not size) parcels dont catch customs normally(yours should not b caught). it just means take note while placing large orders.

pravesh was just joking

An hour of flat out running is not very good.

In the VXL combo, the motor is pretty good but the ESC is hit and miss, especially on 3s. For speedruns, you want something more stable. There's one small company making waves with the performance of their budget ESC.

If you need suggestions, ask.

I said that a run time of more than a hour but in no way  i am going to run that much
will give it brakes in between to cool down i said i wanted that is because i stay at the run location for a long time hence wanted no hectic of charging it again and no need to carry extra battery.

Also, the running peak temp for most of the traxxas cars is 200 degrees.
so can u advise a cheap but reliable laser temp and a speed gun for this.

And can i have the contact info of the "one small company making waves with the performance of their budget ESC."

200 Fahrenheit will kill a Traxxas motor and a VXL will go into thermal shutdown before it hits 200F. You want to stay below 160F but you are safe up to 180F.

These guys have been known to make superb budget ESCs and they have a lot of online support. The 120A ones have been in Losi SCTEs with 550 class 4 pole motors and they work well. That says a lot about what they can do. In a rustler, even the 80A will work but I 'd suggest the 120A version. They are ideal for 2s and should scrape by on 3s. They work in pretty much in any standard 1/10th scale application. The sensored nature offers smoothness in power delivery comparable to the high end ESCs. It's highly programmable as well.


This should work as a good temperature gun.

A lot of folks use this one as well. I think Pravesh has the Duratrax temp gun. I'll be getting one shortly.

and what about the speed gun

also i have ordered these.

If possible, cancel the LRP order. That ESC is quite old. The Ezrun 60A should be fine in your rustler but take care of temps.

well they have shipped it now.

late but safe  the tower order has reached and a customs also has been charged Rs. 987/-
the receipt is collected by my family.
will post pics tomorrow when i get home.
also will post pics of the parcel when i collect it from the post office.
