Welcome to the forums.

Most of us here are aware of the voltage limitations of internal becs and run external becs or battery packs. Our largest area of interest with regard to the new R1 Pro is it's ability to run on higher voltage (5S or 6S lipo) and handle current (up to or over 125A).

My initial plan for the R1 Pro was going to be to put it into an 1/8th scale truck. I understand that this would be running the esc out of spec and wouldn't be covered by warranty. Warranty issues aside, what is the R1 Pro capable of in real world applications? What is the actual current limit? What is the actual voltage limit?

My questions exactly. If you can answer them as best you could, that would be awesome.

Thanks guys!

Yes I work at Tekin, it's our family business.

I wouldn't run the R1 Pro with anything bigger than 4s. It wasn't designed for Monster Truck use, like the R1MT will be. Actual current limit is 600a peak per phase and actual voltage limit, we rated it at 12.6v. You saw the video, that was on 16.8v with the BEC disabled.

LOL, appearently you haven't been around our forums too much. We do alot of things we aren't supposed to. We promise to do alot of "post-beta" testing for you.
