I have started using Tekin stuff lately and am very pleased, goes for Novak stuff still hanging around too. I used Novak customer service only 2 times, and both times my stuff was back within 7-10 days top. I know everyone on on here knocks the HV system, but just stuck one in my E-revo and it hasnt skipped a beat even on 95 degree days.
i was just at a race at phesant runn in holly mich. two guys were running the hvmaxx in a truggy, and buggy, both of them could not make 5 min, that system is just to mild for a big use, a revo is much calmer to motor and speedo, i have a mm in my losi 8 and jammin crt truggy, both run very well, if you properly treat them and set em up, they will go for a LONG TIME, more reliable than a mmm at this point still

True, An Erevo is lighter than a buggy. Novak should make a motor in the 2000kv range for heavier R/C's, these current 3000kv motors have alot of RPM, but lack the torque and really require some small pinions to work.

I have only been in rc for about 2 years.

I have sent esc's back to Castle 4 times. I can only say I'm pleased with the service from Castle.

There was a bit of a wait on the MMM v1, but we all know what was going on with that. I guess I'm more patient than most people.

I guess it's a good thing rc is only one of my many hobbies.

I was okay with the first one that took 3 week, I was not happy but not really mad with the second one that took 6 weeks, but this last one that looks like at best is going to take 8 weeks is enough to make me mad and I think with good reason. When I talked to them last time I was told how much better things are now which to me was kind of like pouring salt on an open wound as it is taking longer every time I send one in. How is that "better"?
