Hi Earl Loving this video Series with the Moto X cant wait to Drive mine when it arrives , these videos a sure a great help and takes the fear away from giving it a go to modify ourselves , i can see Losi and Perhaps others taking note that this was a way forward and a different driving/riding RC experience for a wider range of people in RC , Cheers Andrew Magro - Mag RC

I love how you get right into RC’s and customize them that’s what the hobby is all about great work Earl can’t wait to see it done 💪🏽🤙🏽💯

4 barrel carburetor 4 speed 2 dule exhaust pipe( 442) love it

Thanks again for your advice in the other's video. I was just out and drive mine. So fun, And now it steers properly.

The castle sidewinder could be a great choice or the easy run 60-amp wherever ESC you choose,💯🔧👍

That thing is packed in there tight, looking good so far ❤

Get on earl glad u done vid showing us all how to do it? Yes it do look like esc to big, I know you can do it locking forward to next vid cheers earl 👍 😮

Man your goin deep on this puppy Dig it! 1970 442 their strong. We were T boned in one, I was on the pass .side where I was sitting 40yrs ago. They don't make em like they use to. Any who i have a 69 Chevelle with a 427 good stuff!!! Cant wait to see the next Vid. Thank You for your inspirational info and content....

Thank you so much for doing this vid. I know it's something you probably didn't want to video. But I thank you for this. I just ordered my castle BEC from my local hobby shop.

Hey Earl! I that was a Olds you were working on with the Red inner fender wells!😲 I have a couple of those myself! Glad your showing the promoto MX change over!😉📹💯✔️👋👋👋👋

Hey Earl, with the aid of the electronics mount kit (LOS261013).... The 100a esc with the removal of its mounting tabs will fit in the Promoto using the provided mount in the kit...

They really did a good job on those bikes

I thought about taking the flywheel and tuning it down on the Harding lathe making the mass smaller

Thank you Earl we doing the ESC install 💯🔧👍🍻

Yes sir that ferrite bead is for electric noise interference reduction. You're a brave man taking on that challenge.

Wow those screws...... Are confusing... But nothing to you earl I'm sure. What a fascinating vid bro. 💯. Can't wait for PT 2.

A lot of patience goes into a build like this 👍👍👍hats off to you Earl🎩🎩🎩 and here waiting patiently for running video

That circle is the same as an XLR RFI eliminator. Pretty much an AC power line filter

I’m all for upgrades in power and performance, but this is one model that is powered perfectly straight out of the box for its size/weight & scale.

Pretty interesting how they got everything in there. As a self taught mechanic this is the stuff I like to see , what actually makes something work and how it’s put together

Thanks!

Your a brave man taking that apart lol nice Ferrari 👌 what year?

Forget trying to fit ESC in stock location. ESC backpack baby😳😜🤣😂

Whew!Losi did a great job fitting all that stuff in there!! It's looking like the stock size with next to no extra wire is going to be your best option. It would be nice if you could find another esc that had the 5mm bullet cups like the stock one had.

SW4 CASTLE ESC WOULD HAVE BEEN GEAT AS WELL

Nice car ,Earl 🚗 😊

Yes❤

Wow, that looks like a lot of work. You seemed to have almost as many bolts as that full-size car you were working on. Maybe you can better fit a hobbywing wp ESC? They come in different amp ratings. And, they are smaller.

i couldnt wait to see one of these bikes torn down,👍

Alright thx Earl 👍

Interesting that the stock ESC fan is oriented to suck hot air from the motor...makes me wonder if this bike really needs a fan cooled ESC at all. A bike puts far less strain on the ESC than a conventional 4 wheeled RC. Not needing an ESC with a fan would open up more options.

Thanks for the video

Hey Earl the New Castle Mamba micro x2 is 4s and has a very small footprint

Wow is that getting involved but that’s you ,and in this hobby it’s what else can make it better 1k later lol😅😅😅

😎💯💯💯

i see why losi discontinued the lmt roller, they needed to chop up all the frame plates for the promoto 😂

A 4s HW is never a waste lol .. curious what you'd think of doing a 'sort of' budget build . Convert ST rally Traxxas to brushless with that HW hmm . Also can't wait to see more with the Mojave off road speed runs . Thanks 👍

Boom 🎉

And i gonna use your video when i want to upgrade it to 3s:) More than that is enough for me. Haha.

Awesome bike , hopefully the esc housings will transfer easily

Hobbywing QUICRUN 10BL120 SD would probably be a good option, really cheap at this point too

Man there’s sure a lot of screws for a motorcycle. I’d never be able to put it back together right 😂

Hey Earl! Is there enough meat on those side plate to grind or cut the openings bigger to use that esc you want to use as long you can bolt it all back together for strength still??? Good Luck on the mission bud!🤔😉👍📹💯✔️👋👋👋👋

ONLY MY OPION 3S PLENTY OF POWER

Furitek might be an option... Does the cap pack and the donut for lack of better terms serve the same purpose?

what size are those bearings? Be interesting to see if a lighter wheel could be ran.

Nice cars 😮

Wow! I think I'm going to wait for an upgrade kit to come out, that is a wiring nightmare atleast for me.

I thought i had subscribed already. I'm wondering how the plastic rims are holding up? These are so good for our hobby RC in general. These are great, not everybody wants a crawler. My next rc will be a desert buggy, or another crawler i dont need.

Water can get in that flywheel easy right?

Would you want to sell one of them spectrum 100 amp ESC?

My money says his promoto is still in pieces today

I could use that esc

4s next earl?

You could have decased the esc maybe?

It doesn’t take long

and since you know more than losi's electrical engineers why didn't you design the bike for them 😂

I know this is an old vid and you might not see this comment but if you do, is that a 488? 😬

I thought all u needed was a bec?

Looks like a pain in the ass just for 3s

Use that esc on another project

Did yo see my email?

Thanks!
