Cheap "high voltage" esc Quest

[rschoi_75]

Just a little update. We finally got a little break in the rain so I took my buggy out for a nice run in the park during lunch. I've been wanting to try this out in a huge area for over a week now, so food was put on the backburner.

The park was soaked from the week of rain we just had, so the grass felt similar to a saturated sponge. Lots of visible puddles and tons of mud. Perfect for a little bashing. I had gone through and waterproofed a few of my bashers over the weekend since I was getting bored, and luckily I did the buggy too.

I got about 15 minutes of solid running on a 5s 4800mah hyperion lipo. The esc performed beautifully! I had no problems at all during the run. The temp on the esc was under 130*F after the run and I didn't even bother testing the motor or battery since they were warm to the touch, but not hot. The ice cold water on the field probably helped a lot. Its 45*F in the sun, but at least its sunny (yeah I know... its not really cold, but hey I'm used to so cal weather).

I have to admit, I'm liking this esc more and more every day. For the purpose that it serves (bashing), this esc is great. Now all I have to do is figure out what to do with the motor.... I was thinking about getting a kyosho 1/10th dbx pretty soon. Anyone think this motor could power it?
