Is the ESC (electronic speed controller) included and if so does the stock one have reverse?

yes its included, and a good one as well. yes it has reverse, do yourself a favor and grab one of the cheap $15 esc fans they make to go on it and keep it cool, 10 second install and keeps the thermal shutdowns from happening on hot days,

Yes and yes.There are three settings on the ESC: normal: forward and reverseTrack: no reverseTraining: forward and reverse, 50% power

Wondering the same question, did you ever find any info? ;) I just ordered one, should have it in 2 days. I'm assuming its really just 3 channels: looks like throttle, forward-reverse, TURN left-right (no L/R side banking), with the l-r turn on right stick (normally on left throttle stick). Did read some info that stated it could easily be turned into true 4ch with addtl servo added.

Yes, it comes with its own controller. Left/Right steering. Forward/Reverse throttle.100% pleased with mine.

No stepper motor that year. Is the truck running right? Does the cruise control work? Just the speedo sticking. Look for a new one. If the answer to any of the questions are yes look at vss sensor on transmission

NO, now it includes a disc with a users manual. It also has a separate wiring diagram, which is fairly user friendly. And it comes with directions for Mach3 debugging. Full of photos, and the English is only slightly broken. All in all, everything is clearly explained. EDIT: There is just one 5v+ wire per axis output. So, you probably need jumper wires on the driver itself. - Use the jumpers to connect EN+, Step+ and Direction+. (On this breakout-board, the Step, EN, and Direction terminals are negative.)

I had just commented that mine DID have a reverse flow switch, but I was referencing the 25516, not the 25517, sorry. I have since deleted my previous comment.

There is reverse but it is hard to control left or right in reverse. This is true for all boats because the rudder is in front of the propeller as the boat is going backward therefore really no true control of left or right. Reverse is mainly used for backing up. It does come with a wall charger and the batter is a 7.2 V NiMH 800mAmp RTR. I replaced it with a 7.4V Lipo 2000mAmp batter for longer run. Overall, a nice well built heavy-duty boat with a nice 72MHz radio with multi-function.

Nope. Only forward and reverse. Ypou can 'get close enough for government work' on tightening if you use a torque stick to limit the output mechanically.

yes .it run slow in forward super fast in reverse it not right you need to does is switch the wire than it will run faster in forward and slow in reverse there wire on this esc is not right it backwardi have tried a 15 turn motor it work with out buring up

No reverse.You have to release the forward drive lever and then push slightly forward to disengage the drive system, then pull back manually. That works ok but the machine is fairly heavy for a lot of backing.

It has a 3 step. You could run a speed controler but with basic a understanding of electricity the motor may not run well or last long.. I personally removed the "stock" comptroller and wired in my own.

Yes, the forward/reverse switch is a white push-through button above the trigger that reverses the polarity of the current going to the motor. You can park the button in its in-between position to effectively switch off the trigger.

No it does not have reverse. But if you know how to handle the power it delivers then you will see you won't need a reverse. It's a fun car but not for beginners. It can get expensive if you crash. I completely changed a lot of parts on the car. I actually posted a picture of my jato with the go pro and all the mods. The picture should be u dear customer pics or comments

I'm glad you asked. Nothing led me to believe it had both options but because you asked, I just went downstairs to check... and... it does. It braked when I put the pedal in reverse.

Yes. This is designed for brushed motors only. A brushless ESC will have 3 wires for the motor and a brushed ESC has only 2.

Yes it does. Mine had a bad speed sensor. You are going to have to get it replaced and repay the shop. Amazon will replace it for free but the shop won't. It is a pretty simple repair to do if you want to try.

It depends on the speed controller, and the one I bought does not have regen. Not sure how much of an improvement it would be to have it. Would definitely make the system more complicated.
