The controller itself, while being quite large, functions rather impressively for the price. I haven't got a whole lot of time on it yet(it is winter after all), but my initial impression is quite favorable. I was actually quite happily impressed with its smoothness(testing in a 3905 emaxx with a 7xl motor) - as smooth as any other esc from my initial testing, actually.

Thanks for the detailed and specific write-up, Brian. You da man! :)

Good to hear your input on the esc Mike...will you offer the program card for sale?

Nice to have a cheap, no mod option for 4s useage... I may have to get one for my emaxx.

Also wondering, does it have a sensor port? The description lists it as useable with sensored motors...

To Brian and Mike, will either of you be testing this esc with 4 or 6 pole motors? Just wondering how it will handle a neu or plett... 75 dollar esc on a 300 dollar motor
