No proportional brake (not really a big deal for 1/5 as mech brakes are better for heavy stuff), it will be massive (again not really a big deal for 1/5 scale), not going to work with a wheel radio without a pistix, and it is chinese so warranty work will be spotty...

Personally I would go with the 180amp CC plane esc. Yes it is more expensive, but should work better.

I plan to use my lt10 esc with some 1/5 scale size vehicles on 10s when I get around to finishing them. I have a couple of 1527 and 1521 motors so we will see. 10s lipo is 37 volts and at 100 amps that is 3700watts, or almost 5hp.
