Im sitting on about 13 kgs now rolling and estimate of 15-17kgs finished not loaded.

Was looking at tekin 35 turn hand wound combo roughly$250 australian dollas.

Any feed back on this or any others would be appreciated.

Rhys, spending $250 AUD seems like overkill to me, for an ESC and motor. A little more information would be helpful.

Are you planning on using the stock transmission? ESC's aren't too expensive. I replaced the stock motor in my KH with a 65T ($10). The higher the number of turns the more torque is produced. The catch is as torque increases, speed decreases. It sounds like you are looking for torque. In addition to a higher torque motor, you could install a gear reducer, that can double the torque, but also lowers the speed.

Thanks for your reply rob

Ok so I would like to stay with stock 3 speed if it will work and can always stay 1st gear for heavy hauling and have the 2 other gears for speed when needed..
The reason for asking as I have a hobbywing motor and speedy in the truck now as its all I had from a drift car now I need torque. If I need a gru I will get one.
even tho its expensive will this combo work can always play with pinion as well.
