Oh well, I guess you can consider me weird since I refuse to run anything less than 6S on my big trucks. I prefer 10S A123's or 8S Lipo.
So it sounds like noone here has used this ESC without the PiStix adapter.
From my previous testing with the HV110 I draw at most ~45AMPS avg and 100-110 bursts so this ESC should handle my Truggy fine.
I'll be racing my MBX5T with this ESC (stock config) tomorrow with 10S A123's so I'll have results Sunday.
