In this video I'm going through a few upgrades before I mount the new ESC and the new motor.

Thanks to the kind people at MB Models (not sponsored), I was able to order these great components, and was you will see in the video the buggy has been involved in some action where I was fortunate to learn more about car setup.

While becoming familiar with the buggy in the last few weeks the original brushed motor went out in smoke, something wasn't quite right in it's last days, I tried to clean it with disc brake fluid to see if would improve the situation and it went out in smoke, I was close enough to react quickly and disconnect everything without major issues. It was the perfect moment to get the new motor and esc.

I'll do a video in a near future about suspension oil, and the differences and why you may want to use certain grades.

The original weight of the buggy was 1710g (advertised weight) without battery, after making many changes and use aluminium and carbon parts the current weight is 1595g.

I found the space in this buggy quite limited, this is because it's a narrow chassis, so it was tricky to make this upgrade in this limited amount of space where the ESC was right next to the motor, but in the end there was just enough!

I'll be using this buggy at a local track to continue to familiarise with they way it handles and eventually will be moving into the Team Xray XB4 (see my other videos on that build).

Main electronics upgrades:

- Servo: SAVOX SC-0352
- Motor: Hobbywing Xerun V10 (G3)
- ESC: Hobbywing Quicrun 10BL120 sensored
- Receiver: Sanwa RX-482
- Transmitter: Sanwa MT-S

The servo is a great upgrade to the buggy, it's 6kg (double the stock), very strong and agile.

If you are interested, the spur gear is 65t 0.6mod and pinion is 23t 0.6 mod. It's perfect for the local track as there's a lot of bends, meaning you probably want torque over speed on this situations.

The original tyres will be replaces for a more appropriate astroturf tyres, in my case I'm choosing the following:
- Rear: Yellow Schumacher Darts U6826
- Front: Yellow Schumacher Cactus Fusion U6855

One of the things you did not see in the videos is that the wheel bearings should be cleaned and oiled appropriately, I'm using the HUDY bearing oil (DY106230).

Also don't forget to connect the port cable from the ESC to the motor as this sends all the crucial information to the ESC such as motor heating temperatures. The QUICRUN 10BL120-SD to not only provides high power output but also has overload protection of the ESC circuit.

I hope you enjoy, this has been very rewarding for me and it continue to be a learning curve to edit these videos, this one may be the first of many with a tiny bit of background music.
