Ftx outback 3 esc and controller upgrade

[@seangreen2382]

Top video mate! I've just got the paso and new to the hobby. I agree with the steering servo but nervous of changing myself so I'll be subscribing and waiting for that video. Keep it up!

[@arransrc]

Thank you very much and thank you for watching and subscribing to my channal. I have now received the new servo this morning ( it come threw the post earlier then i thought ) and i will be uploading the video of me fiting it in the next day or so

Hi, does the drag brake still work with this set up?

[@arransrc]

@intenseslopestyle hiya, yes the drag brake worked very well

Hi Arran, can I run a 2s lipo on the stock esc? If so what batteries would you recommend to fit straight in the paso?

[@jamesmagillphotography]

Or how did you widen the battery tray?

[@arransrc]

Hiya, to be honest I only used the standed battery for its first test run as I was planning to change it to the hobbywing 1080 after the first run, but I do seem to remember that the manuals said it can run a 2s but not 100%

[@arransrc]

As far as the battery there should be screws on each end u just undo them and the ends should slide out and then refit the screws

[@jamesmagillphotography]

@@arransrc brilliant thanks you so much for that I will probably upgrade the esc eventually 😀

[@arransrc]

@@jamesmagillphotography your welcome, the hobbywing 1080 really is good value for money and ive been very happy with the results. As and when you do upgrade the esc you will have to order a new controller as the standed one is a 2 in 1 esc and receiver

Hi Arran, did you have to do any programming on the receiver for the lights to work? How did the lights behave after the change over? Im a bit of a novice, so just trying to understand how it all works. Cheers

[@arransrc]

Hi, as far as programming, no, I did not, i just plug the lights straight into the receiver and they work straight away and work perfectly fine after

[@SamMatthews1]

Thanks for the reply. Could you programme it if you'd wanted to?

[@arransrc]

@SamMatthews1 I am a little unsure myself if you can, as I was happy just plugging them straight into the receiver
