having some problems the way hpi put this truck together is very dumb they mounted the esc right above the motor, the little motor gets very hot and i believe it has melted the inside of my esc last night is when i noticed it and decided to move the esc but i was to late going to call hpi tomorrow and see if i cant get it replaced!
got a new esc in the mail no questions asked!
charged this up the other day and ended buying some new tires and wheels for it and thinking im going to make it brushless with a lipo
