1/8 Sensored systems

[Jabe]

Sensored for smoothnes and precision.
My plan is still to get RX8 combo, just asking about that sensorcable fit.

I just found some details on the LRP SPX8 ESC, which kind of destroys it in my eyes.

SPX8:

BEC / Electric power supply of the receiver: 6V/5A
Weight: 45g
Size: 33.1x37.6x32.5mm
Motorlimit: None
Voltage Input: 7.2-14.8V (2S-4S LiPo)
Rated Current: 764A/Phase
Type: Forward/Brake/Reverse

Standard SPX Bullet Reverse:

Weight 45.0g
Motorlimit over 3.0T (Brushless) / over 4.0 (Brushed)
* Brushless + Brushed: Forward/Brake/Reverse + Forward/Brake
* Automatic brushless/brushed swichtover
* Internal-Temp-Check System
* Advanced digital with 4 adjustable modes
* Big power capacitor optimised for Touring car application
* Ice Drive Design
* AutoCell System - Automatic NiMH-LiPo adaption
* Voltage Input: 4.8 - 7.4V
* Low-profile heat sink
* Fan on/off via speed control main switch
* 25 years warranty
* 3x Multi Protection System
* German Technology

Hmm, they are both 45g. Can't be that much to improve the voltage capability to 4S, a new BEC design maybe? Some different Caps?

Also, what's with the crap '764A per phase'? 'Cos that's likely!

That specs allows you to correctly determine the proper maxamps pack to buy. Jut match that number to the "ratings" that MA have an you are good to go.

I read it as 76amps per phase at 1st glance, and thought that was a bit overrated...

Lol, and agreed, I had to do a double take at that. I knew LRP overrated their ESCs, but I didn't know that it was by that much.

The only sensored 1/8th systems out there are the ones already mentioned. Unless you include Nosram, which is just LRP in red.
