    Surron controller upgrade

    Most of the controllers available for the Surron are overpriced for what you get. I stared doing some looking and came a crossed the Votol Controllers. The EMRON kit from Electro and Co uses the em150/2 controller and is a decent price for what you get. I chose the em150 as it seems to be more...

    Safest way to discharge a ESC to work with it?

    Like the title says how should a discharge a speed controller/ the capacitors safely? Shoving something metal between the battery wires has been my standard practice. While the big pop is fun knew it was probably hard on stuff and just killed a ESC doing so. Yet to open it up and see what is...

    Brushless drift trike

    Wanted to build something good for a quick grin in the evenings without arousing the neighbors. Started with a Razor DXT kids toy and ordered a MY1020D and a 33a controller off the online auction site we all know and love. Built using a angle grinder, drill and my mk1 eyeballs. The local welder...
