I bought 2 of these a couple years back, they worked great. Last year one of the ESCs let the magic smoke out, but for the price point I can't complain.
I've used a lot of these "GooRC" kits and I get them cheap on eBay as well but from USA sellers so I get them in about a week. I've had no issues with mine except the ESC fan is really noisy on the one in my Blizter Beetle. I'm using a 3300KV GoolRC in my Sand-Viper but it cogs really bad. I'm trying one of the blue unbranded "120a" ESC's with a black 3900KV brushless motor combo in my EVO that I got off ebay for $40. So far I like it better than the GoolRC's because I can use my programming card with this ESC and the ON/OFF switch is waterproof. I got the same programming sheet as you have in this video with this blue ESC. I tried the programming card that the sheet refers to with my 60a GoolRC and the lights just cycle through which many complain about because the cheap programming card is actually not compatible with these GoolRC ESC's. Surpass Hobby also sells these ESC/Motor combos as well. GoolRC rebrands everything. If I'm not mistaken GoolRC is the TomTop house brand but these 60a ESC/Motor combos are sold all over with or without the branding.
I have the 3650 3900kv with 60a esc in a 2wd slash. A lot faster than the stock titan 12t. Been about 6 months and haven't had any issues. Not a bad setup for the price. It hangs with my brother's castle brushless slash all day long. And less than 1/4 the price.
Nice vid. I got a similar looking combo from Banggood for less than £40, that's about $45US. 4370kv, 60amp ESC and the program card. Works great in my 2wd Rustler. My on/off had a waterproof cover, but it says in the info, the fan on the ESC is not waterproof and should be removed before running in the wet. I can get 45mph on 2s and nearly 60 on 3s. That's on stock gearing. Not tried it on the high speed gearing...yet. 👍
That's interesting, looks like China is ripping off Google RC stuff and selling it as Google RC. It's all probably made in the same place anyways, lol!
@@poorboysrc Exactly, mine also has rubber cover over the switch but to be honest I have expensive, mid range and down right health hazard cheap Chinese knock off esc's that claim to be waterproof and I don't trust any of them. I have seen traxxas so called waterproof gear go up in flames on a damp day.
I don't think I'd use a GoolRC product in a trail rig, their esc's lack refinement for bashers, and I just don't think I'd use one in a crawler. The Hobbywing 1080 is an awesome crawler esc, but it's only good for brushed motors. If you really want to go with sensored brushless check out the Hobbywing AXE system, it's awesome! 🤙
My esc went BANG andl et the smoke out big time! Mine had the 3mm shaft which broke off in 1 run, I got a replacement motor from them and that shaft is made of rubber, bends on 3s on a 2wd buggy! So far I have been able to easily bend it back but that won't last ever. Not worth the cost

Can someone please tell me how to plug-in the wires into a brushless Traxxas ESC where does the cables go from the motor to the ESC plug-in I brut up two motors already I know the ESC has ABC plug-in for the motor wires
You can't really plug in brushless motor wires wrong. Worst case scenario, the motor runs backwards, then you just need to switch any two of the wires. If you're burning up motors I'm not sure what the problem is. Perhaps you're over-geared? What size pinion are you running and what size pinion is suggested?
what are the chances the esc could burst into flames and how reliable is it? because i plan to use it in an rc tank im making and i don't want it to explode on me.
is jrelec kingbox same as any of the cheap amazon ones? i bought one years ago but can't find any info on them, i hooked it up and calibrated throttle and the thing goes faster at 90% throttle than 100% , that is annoying .i have tried every setting in card esc to change motor timing, acceleration %. nothing!! any ideas?
It's tough to say, dude. These days, there's clones of clones for sale at the big online shops. My personal experience is that it's a total crap-shoot. Sometimes you get a good one, sometimes you get garbage. It's always a gamble with the China clone electronics.
@@johnjones2194 I'm a budget guy, so I'd go with a Holmes Hobbies 27T 550 brushed motor on 3S. That way you've got the best of all worlds, speed, crawlability (is that a word???) and good control.

The motor itself will definitely will work in a lighter RC vehicle. but on a Traxxas RC vehicle I highly doubt it. because of the weight of traxxas RC vehicles That can cause issues, like cogging, I have one of them myself, it works very well in one of my RC touring cars, because it does not have a lot of mass like the bigger and Heavier ones like the traxxas one's so cogging is virtually impossible but in a much larger RC vehicle and it's heavier than likely will cause problems like that.
@BurakSerdar any motor/esc combo I get that cogs really bad, I just put it in a higher speed basher. That way the cogging isn't much of an issue. If you need more low speed control, definitely go sensored, or with a brushed motor. 👊🏼

On a good note though.. I havent burned one of these up in a any of my 1/10 buggy 2wd or 1/10 4wd belt drivin touring cars yet..
