Most 1/8 scale motor mounts accept standard can sizes, but confirm the mount spacing and fixation method on your chassis before fitting to ensure a secure installation.
Fit a small fan or lightweight heatsink to the motor can, ensure good airflow around the ESC, and avoid overly tight gearing which can spike temperatures.
Yes, the DS8 allows adjustments to braking strength, throttle curves, and timing. Use the supplied documentation or a programming accessory to fine tune settings to your driving style.
Inspect connectors and wiring after each day of racing for signs of wear or looseness, and reseal or replace any exposed connections to maintain waterproofing.
