They've had them for a while- the same one that can be found on ebay sometimes, and the same price. Basically a plane or boat esc with car software- nothing amazing, but it works well enough.

As a back up esc for $ 100-, it might not be a bad alternative....just a thought. I was looking at them as well a few minutes ago while shopping for batts. for my new CRT .5.

I thought someone on here was using this and said it had no punch?

Wouldn't surprise me...
