Man I lost big time on the big race with the 3 rigs lol, I picked the panda hobbies, it wouldn't let me comment on there but I wanted to say I really enjoyed that 😀 lol it's refreshing to see so stuff that's just plain ol fun. Great job
Thanks man! I made it a kid friendly video, so it would not allow for comments unfortunately. I was hoping some people would find it fun… And I was curious to see if it would get more of views by being kid friendly. If anything it got less…
@@BriansRCStuff well I like and view all your videos and try to comment on them to help you with that algorithm. Lol, I ordered the the metal diffs and some shocks for my big rock. I'm putting outcast 4s arms and driveshafts on it, also I bought belted proline tires and rims, man those alone were 105 bucks for 4 of them and a hex adapter set so I can use them on 12mm, 14mm and 17mm. By switching over to the 4s outcast arms , driveshafts and shocks I will make it a good bit wider and the 4s line comes with the metal diffs so basically I just ordered 4s arm's and drivetrain lol. Next month I'll get a 4s battery and a gps analyzer and we can do some speed challenges lol, maybe we could help both our channels, although you're more active and regular with yours. But I think it'd be fun to see what we could do. Or if I could get one of those hbx rigs you're speed running I'll fix up one and keep it kinda different because not many people or not that I've seen go that far with the cheaper RCs but it's cool as hell I think, I'm just finishing a project with the big rock I been aiming to for awhile. I'll let you know when I get it all together and ya can go check it out in my channel. Neway nice chatting with you bro and keep it going
Those are Gone Banana's speed run tires! Total overkill for that setup but they are AMAZING! He can do foam on pretty much any wheel. I use those on my 100+ mph Bandit and they have cars running their tires at 200+ mph (probably with better wheels that I have..... I guess.... he made those up for me and my channel which was awesome of him! I have the link in some of my videos but sadly the owner of the company (it is a one may show) is in really bad health right now and not taking orders. I hope he is okay.😔
@@BriansRCStuff Oh snap, sounds like some good tires! I know this truck gets out of control at high speeds and needs better grip so those come handy! Thanks for the info, I hope he gets better.
@@PhantomShinobi something like these are similar but maybe not as good. www.amainhobbies.com/contact-gt8-rally-preglued-foam-tires-black-2-103mm-35-shore-conjb35b/p1304044?v=1303056&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwi_exBhA8EiwA_kU1MqcHcwHGhOVrsSZDassVyfpggfrZgRzo6kyC4tp3tK7CUsvuCUuOMRoCn8MQAvD_BwE
Yes it is 4s capable and provided that it fits, it would give you a lot of head room in your MJX as it is a 120a. I am actually getting ready to (hopefully) work with MJX in the new future and am excited to try this ESC in some of their cars.
lol, I have thought about it but it’s not done 1 video in the fish. 😁 Here is me running my HBX truck at 4s with the ZTW ESC. th-cam.com/video/Ow6yiaagx6A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=H9ZOFDks4Kas3p96
No, you can run it on the default settings. If you look at my videos, all the ones I have made so far were running the default settings. The punch was really strong for my set up, and the brakes were too strong as well so I’m looking forward to running it next with the adjustments made. However, with this ESC, you can only program it with a card.
@@BriansRCStuff Very good, do you recommend this one or are there better esc? I have a q117 b car that had its esc burned by default and I would like to know a good one
@@rafaaael.a The ZTW is still fairly new to me but I have been VERY happy with it so far. I am not familiar with the Q117b. Is that 1/16th scale? My only caution would be if there isn't much space to mount an ESC, you may want to be careful to get a ESC that is not too big. What are the specs of motor you plan on running? A 120A ESC may be way more than you need depending on the setup and if space is a concern, you may be better off with a 45A or 60A. Besides ZTW, I have run Hobbywing and Surpass Hobby (same as Gool RC and a few others). Surpass has worked fine for me in my application. Hobbywing has been good too and their 60A ESC is nice and small. The Hobbywing 120A V1 ESC has a design flaw and the stock fan does not do well at 3s (burns up) but this can be corrected by plugging a fan into the BEC for the receiver so the voltage isn't so high. Surpass Hobby.... I have heard of some of them burning up so I would leave a larger buffer from the demands of your motor vs what the ESC is rated at to be safer.
@@BriansRCStuff If it is 1/16 scale but you would like something better and durable, I already checked the dimensions of the ztw and it can be adapted perfectly without having difficulties when assembling it, but thank you very much brother ❤️
@@rafaaael.a nice. You might just need to solder the connector on your choice so they match but otherwise I think you would be good to go! I used Shoe Goo to mount mine.
I'm thinking you might want to change the drag brake, so that it doesn't brake unless you put the brake on. The forward would be like your punch, I'd left it at a 100 lmao. But that is what I'm thinking bro
@@BriansRCStuff it might have been off bro but I was just saying if what you were shooting for was when you let off the trigger it doesn't flip over end over end without you applying the brake then that would be your drag brake lol. Again I'm not trying to make you feel like I think I know more about anything than you but I like crawlers and I didn't know if you had any experience in them lol, so I was just assuming that you were having problems when you let off the trigger it automatically brakes and that would be drag brake, I could have completely misunderstood and you were wanting to take down the effect of when braking yourself. Sorry my friend for confusing you and making yourself second guess your own decisions. I was just trying to help my friend.
@@PtsdRC oh, I see! Yes, the drag brake is off on all of my Speedrun cars but I see what you’re saying. What I was trying to say was that the brakes are just really strong for such a light car especially when it’s cold outside, because the tires don’t grip as well. When I just barely touch the brakes, it’s enough sometimes to make them lock up and cause issues. It’ll be nice to have the brake force style back so I don’t have to be as careful with the brekimg modulation.
@@BriansRCStuff ok bro , sorry if you took me wrong, I sometimes don't word things right and I can make people think I'm being a smartas$ or know it all but I'm just trying to be a help. The video with the card being demonstrated was what I was talking about last time we spoke, I was trying to help you come up with what you could tell the company on how to get a free program card lol, not what you should do. I didn't know if you took that wrong after I got to thinking about it lol, I was just like hey, tell them it's help me out showing off your product if you send me a program card, like that's how I meant it. You didn't reply so I figured I might have offered you but if I did and hopefully From now on it'll be easier for me to shop talk or whatever without sounding like I think I sound when I go back and read my replies lol. Yea bro I'm weird lol don't have any friends and stay to my self most of the time, PTSD and just generally being weird hampers my people skills lol. So again if you took our last conversation before this one wrong I was just trying to help you with what you might could tell to get a free program card lol nothing but try to be a asset for you and your channel.
@@PtsdRC I totally must’ve missed your last post! I try to keep up with all of the responses I get, but now and then I find one I never responded to. Thanks for trying to help! You for sure were helpful with the Bandit discussion we had. I definitely did not take it as you being a smart ass! 😎
Options 5 does NOT reduce the punch, it reduces the power at all speeds including top speed.

Can this esc be programmed without the card? I know most can
@@brandjayfab no it cannot and it does not have punch control but otherwise love it.
Yay I'm glad you got the card!!
