Hi Guys, Used to race 1/12th + 1/10th on road a while back (maybe 15 to 20 years back ) thinking of getting back into indoor racing and like the look of the Schumacher Superstox. Would have to start from complete scratch as I have no gear left (it all got stolen hence giving up the hobby) Was thinking of 2S lipo's 21.5T motor 2.4ghz radio etc and was wandering what make / models people would recommend for ESC and the such. As far as TX is concerned I prefer sticks to wheel. I do have a charger / PSU for lipo's as I fly model planes on occasions. I did visit the hall last Friday 12th and was encouraged by the people I spoke to as they all seemed friendly. Mark

For the ESC I would go for a Speedpassion/Hobbywing as they seem to be very reliable and cheaper than other brands. Servo wise I'd go for a Savox. With regards to the transmitter, you're best off having a look at a few different people's and see which you like most and which feels best.
HTH, Liam

Hi mark , the hobbywing fixed timed motors are good and rebuilable. 2s and 21.5t if the way to go for sure I'm with Liam you can't go wrong with SP or Hobbywing esc but remember you have to also buy the LCD control box For program/software changes .. Ie installing blinky software .. The diff is well worth buying when you get the car.. Ascari shell works well also
