DragBrake

Is it possible for Temper to have drag brake?

 

[Loosenuts]

Not with the factory Receiver/ESC. You would have to buy a new radio/receiver and speed controller that had drag brake and replace everything.

What @Loosenuts said. I installed a Hobbywing 1080WP "crawler" ESC in my Temper (with stock motor) and it has a drag brake setting. Unfortunately it represents a significant expenditure, but upgrading the electronics in my Temper turned it into a new car. In my case I already had a Spektrum DX2E and just bought a new Rx in addition to the Hobbywing ESC. I've since installed a 3ch Rx and paired it with my DX4C transmitter so I can take advantage of my Temper's 4WS. The DX4C offers steer mix function and now I get crab steering AND 4WS with the flick of a switch.

Here's >my post< about installing the Hobbywing 1080 ESC in my Temper along with some notes about its performance and capabilities.

Are those stock Servo?

 

[psyblade]

do you have video bud, wanna see it in action?

 

[i_r_beej]

Yep, stock servos. One is from my Boost (the same model as what was installed in the Temper). They're terribly weak.

No video...yet. Give me a couple of days- I've been wanting to shoot a video to demo the steering modes: crab/4WS.
