Hobbywing MAX10 SCT Discontinued? New Model?

[museguy]

Hi All,

I believe Hobbywing has discontinued the MAX10 SCT (120AMP). Is there a replacement?

I am looking for a new ESC for a Granite 4 x 4 3S

Thank you!

The max 10 G2 is 140amp/sensored, completely overkill for that rig.

By name, the successor is the Max 10 G2. In spirit, the 10BL120 G2 is the real successor if you want to model the inexpensive, non-sensored, 120a specs from the old Max10 SCT. Keep in mind that you need a programming card to change settings on the 10BL120 G2.

Is this the exact same thing as the Max 10 SCT? Old model moves down a tier?

I don'think so.

Most of the components are the same, but you lose other features like the additional tuning, turbo, heatsinks, etc.

But the 10BL120 G2 is the way to go for your rig.

How about the 80A version?

Might be a little too weak for that truck. I’d totally use that in something like a Gorgon or Traxxas 2wd though.

For racing/track use (you'll be on 2S anyways) then the 80A is more than enough.

For general purpose bashing between 2S-3S, get the 120A.

No kill like overkill. Get the most excellent Max10G2 combo with the 3665 motor. 3200 if you wanna stick to 3s or 2400 for 4s action.

Thank you @cancelthefuture!

I am thinking of 3S bashing. Are there any less expensive options to the Max10 G2 combo with the 3665SD 3200kv $173 that you would recommend?
Or is the Max10 G2 about as inexpensive as you would go?

I like that the Max 10 G2 has Bluetooth and tuning with the Hobbywing app

Cheers

Thank you @CosmoM3!

What motor would you recommend with the 10BL120 G2 (2S-4S) $59?

Requires Program Card $17

10BL120 combo is the cheapest I would go. Max 10 G2 is a lot nicer with the sensored setup and bigger motor, but it's definitely overkill
