Hello all. 100% new to RC as of Dec. 17, 2020 (My sons birthday). Of which I got him the granite Mega. We had so much fun, I got one for my daughter to play with him. [maybe someday I'll get to drive it too, lol ].
That said, both trucks, I believe are suffering from the LVC that is common on these. ESC flashing red, steering still working, then turn off/then on and back to business for a bit. Each subsequent off/on less and less time.
I want to eliminate the problem by going brushless, and am not looking to "upgrade" much, but just get longer run times. We've been using 2S-5200mah LiPo and the stock 3300 mAh NiMH. I'm not too worried about burning out gears and such as both have their controllers limited at 50%, and we'll only be using 2S. Plus if we burn out, we upgrade.
So I'm looking for options on direct replacements if there is any for a brushless motor and ESC. Both waterproof as we're in Canada and in the snow a lot!
Can anybody please list off some options I can shop for, or even the right motor and ESC specs that will be an easy swap out?
Thanks all for you understanding and advice!
