AMAZING Results! - Rock Pirates & HOBBYWING Fusion SE

Thanks for watching!! I'm really excited now that my new Rock Pirates Interceptor ‪@rockpiratesrc3828‬ rig has been out on the trails. I've enjoyed making the build videos, but trail running is my favorite for sure. :)

This video is a comparison of the motor. I first installed a brushed RC4WD ‪@RC4WDMedia‬ motor and Reedy ESC to get the truck rolling. The initial combination is great for trail running, but for technical rock crawling, the 1:1 throttle action was driving me crazy. The momentum of the truck would "stall" as it came up to an obstacle and you needed to give us additional throttle to get over the particular obstacle, resulting in a "stop & go" action. Granted, this combination works if you're going for scale realism since most full-size vehicles perform in the same manner when they roll up to an obstacle.

My objective was to make the action of the truck much smoother, so I purchased a HOBBYWING ‪@HOBBYWINGOfficial‬ QUICRUN Fusion SE 1800kv brushless motor and ESC combo. It was really affordable and the results have been amazing!! Low cost and superior results = HIGH VALUE. I already own a first generation Fusion 1800kv in another crawler, and I fell in love with it.

I first knew about the motor after watching a couple videos from The RC Girl ‪@RCGirl‬ and also RC Review ‪@RCReviewChannel‬, so those videos helped me with my original purchase. Thank you both for the great content you put out!! :) CONGRATS!! to both of them for hitting 100k+ subscribers!! Here are their HOBBYWING videos...
