I wouldn't skimp out on the ESC area with such a beast of a motor. Most people with that caliber will run a Schulze 40.160 or a Jeti SPIN200 or SPIN300. Both those ESCs can work with a pistol radio. The 40.160 has a car mode, but no lipo cut off. The SPINs doesn't have a car mode, but the brakes can be disabled so you can run your mechanical and the SPINs offers all the benefits of the 40.160 plus more. You can even check AMP draw and motor RPM if you have the progam box.
