Sorry to wake up a week old thread, but I'm thinking of getting one of these ESCs too, and want to know if I can expect the performance of this ESC to be on par with a Sidewinder, or slightly better?

This esc is MUCH better than a sidewinder. After a 20min run on 4s lipo it's only about 110 F.

Have you added an external BEC for running on 4S? and changed the fan too? What kind of motor are you using with it?

That's very interesting. How good are the hobbycity motors compared to feigaos? I get pretty good discounted prices with them and those motors are like 26 bucks, want to know if they're at least up to par with a feigao.

Im not a fan of the HC motors, but they are certainly cheap enough to experiment with...

that`s good to know about the ez-run being better than the sidewinder!
I guess I'm going to go with my first idea and try two ez-run 60a esc and 2 hobby city 8s feigao clones! I'll experiment with that set-up and if something goes poof at least it will have cost me only 160$ total! but if it does work...\
160$ for a twin brushless set-up... :O)

Go for it. I think you should run at least L motors though to keep temps down.

dont forget i`ll be running 2 of thoses S cans! i`m already running one L can and it`s already anough for the truck! it a gorillaé tryggy style maxx and pretty light... dont you think 2 L would be overkill? i'm not going for 60mph spped runs here... lol just want a reliable light 4s (2sx2) system for my truck but with the cool factor also... with 8s 4400kv they should be pretty cool running at a max of 35000rpm and splitting the load betwen them... dont you think guys...
