i use dumbo RC radios. CHANNEL 4 is a 3 mode switch. i use that for LEDs, winches, locking diffs, etc. should be relatively straightforward.

I have the same servo and the same Dumbo RC radio/receiver (except my trim is green) in my upgraded WL toys 144001, as well as the HobbyWing 1060 brushed ESC, I recommend all of them! They are working very well for me, I hope this helps anyone who is considering these parts.

Cool set up I rock with the blue dumbo rc I had to get new lights with 6 colors including red and the gauge wire on the stock model was tool small the lights the wires are bigger and works well with the 4th channel I actually have a video up of the confirmation of the working led the straps are cool but I am telling all rc enthusiasts alien tape better than Velcro hot glue and you can wash them and reuse them can’t wait for the run video

Nice build! Those 35 amp ESCs go up in smoke on 3s if you're unlucky though. Says 2-3s on them, but 3s often fries it even before being driven. That racestar combo otherwise works beautifully on 2s in my a959. Keep up the good work and subbed✌😎
@roadstar4993 жыл бұрын
this is good to know... i have this a959 car also and fried the stock radio... what kv racestar motor did you use..??? and did you use same pinion off the stock wltoys 390 motor... my guess is a 6200kv on 2s would be to fast and maybe tear up gears... the 4000kv-4600kv motors seem best match...thanks for sharing your results... we all learn from others
@michaelcliffe5623 жыл бұрын
@@roadstar499 I used a 2435 motor with 4500 kv. I think anything with higher KV than that would just run too hot. The original pinion fits. The only issue I had was the chassis flexing causing the mesh to go out of whack and destroy the spur gear. A carbon chassis from banggood sorted that out, but that was a lot of work because it needs fettling to make the A arms fit🙈 Now it all works nicely though and looks great😎
