Happy to help

great video on servo options, you can change the stock ESC built in BEC to 7.4V with the sektrum v2 program card , its Item 12 option 2 to set it to 7.2v, just wanted to add that small note.

Yes, I should’ve mentioned that. I feel like the bec is still better though because it has its own power source to the servo

Good video and nice testing. I trashed my stock servo on my second trail run. Got it replaced via warranty and carry it as a spare in the vehicle toolbox. I too went with the PH 80kg instead of spending the big bucks. It's been in the rig for 8 months now with no issues. My observation so far is it performs a little better than stock. However, I do try not to get it in binding situations. You are right though, the metal shock towers are a must! Great info on the BEC, i think that will be my next mod before I upgrade the servo again.

Highly recommend the bec. It makes a huge improvement on speed and power.

Was just about to get a power hd for my scx 6 thanks for the review looking for something else

[@CRAZYBUILD349]

i did get the shift x5, super power , ,, 14.8 volts, 4s batery just for it, was it worth it, YES,if your a crawler, or climber, it,s so fast and strong, your video,s are great information, thank you much!!

[@rcilluminati26]

Awesome, I feel like eventually I’ll end up with a high end servo. It’s hard not to push the limits of this truck and the steering def holds it back

[@lukmankarlia8058]

Hi. Do you feel aluminium steering rod ends are needed also?

[@rcilluminati26]

I’m not a huge fan of them. Aluminum tends to wear out and get sloppy. I’d also rather replace a rod end than have something else break. Buy a rod end kit and keep spares in the toolbox on the truck. I think it’s under $20 for every rod end on the truck.

How is this a fair comparison when you used a BEC on the Spectrum and never for the Power HD ??

[@rcilluminati26]

Pretty sure I ran the PowerHD on the bec at 8.4.
