well I have had my first issue with the speed passion ESC. Didn't even get to run it. :flaming:

Had everything all set, ready to go, and when I went to turn it on, the switch was VERY loose, just tapping it would kick it on from on to off. Tried it a few times, and off it comes. Great... And since the switch is integrated (3 wires), I am not sure what wire can I splice together like you do on other cars to get the power to just stay on when you plug the battery in. Very dissappointed. Had to install a Mamba Monster 2200Kv setup in the vehicle which barely fits.

Here's the crappy power switch:



I am sending this to shawn and see what he says. If it is possible to splice the wires and they will still warranty the ESC, I am willing to give it a try. as it sits now though, I am going with this or I won't be able to run:



I liked how the speed passion setup went in the vehicle, but I am very dissapointed on how the switch just came apart. I got contacted by Shawn about the switch, and he is going to send me out a new switch and I can splice the power wires together to get my by. Just need to confirm which are the power wires to be sure.

As for the 2200Kv, I fit about a 15T pinion, don't think I can go smaller unless I grind on the motor case some.

The 2200Kv has A LOT of torque. Need to play with the settings a bit for this.
