Using a different radio system with the Traxxas XO-1

[bruce750i]

I wish it was that simple but the live link button is nowhere to be found.

I've ordered a EzRun 150 to try a different brand esc and use my radio.

Castle has been very disappointing IMO in the way they have disappeared after claiming these great new capabilities of their new mamba that has yet to be seen.

Examples:
Esc temp
Live esc adjustments


I just want to use my own radio forget all that other stuff.

So you going with a EZrun 150 over a castle ESC......... Talk about a step in the wrong direction. All these issues are TRAXXAS issues because they asked for it to cover there own asses...... IMO castle still makes the top of the line stuff for a price you cant beat........why both with the EZFIRE 150?! You can sell the TQI with the RX telemetry stuff and the ESC with 400 dollars in a heart beat..... i sold mine in 12 hours!?!?! and one hour after the sell i bought a XL2 for 250 dollars........ I made money back on the sale!?! so how is it more complicated!!?!?? You already have a good futaba radio!? i dont see what the issue here is!?


I ran my XL2 with 6S on the stock 1717 (only electronic worth a dam on the car BTW) over 100 MPH and the ESC didnt break a sweat. After a full battery discharge the ESC was 110 degrees............. WHO NEEDS LIVE TEMPS?!!?! and i still made it home to play with the data logging on the castle link?!?! what more does one need?!?!
