What controller for 8S that has a true brake??

[othello]

The Jazz 55-10-32 has no problems braking a Neu 1512 or neu 1515 on 10s1p A123 (comparable to 8s lipos). If i want to i can lock all wheels. when i do have to much grip the car will make a front flip when i'm too hard on the brakes. That's why i reduced brake to 95% on my remote.

11lbs truggy with Neu 1512 (1400kv): clip1, clip2, clip3
Same Truggy with Neu 1515/2Y (1100kv): clip1, clip2

The Jazz ESC is able of peak Amps above 120A eventhough it's only speced for bursts up to 65A.

I have 2 MGM24.160 and the brakes are just way too strong... even on the lowest settings... if you throttle lower than the current RPM, it will slow the motor right down... I need a firmware update, but don't want to send it to MGM... if you have the new firmware.. then it would be great...

Do you want to sell one ?....lol

I would if I wasn't putting dual brushless into my GST.. :) the 40.160WK is the smoothest ESC I've ever used...

Hmm sounds like I am better sticking to another HV110 and just thottle it down....especially since a Neu pulls down a truck quick once you let off. Also looks like MGM's are not the ticket either....

or The cheap HobbyCity Turnigy Sentilon 12S 100A ESC... $100 and I'm really digging those ESCs....

You know anybody that has tried one of the Turnigy's??? How does it compare to the HV110??? I'm looking to buy one this week.....

[aqwut]

I have about 10 of them... I love them... They have constant of 100A... but on 12S, that's enough juice... I'm ordering 6 more tonight.... Each ESC can output 4440Watts of continuous power... for $100 that's is Just plane awesome... I've used this with one of my Savages and 7XL and 4S... works great.. only thing is.. you'll have to use mechanical brakes... which I don't mind...

[jzemaxx]

Hmm how do they do with heat...does a heatsink need to be added? One thing I forgot though is will it work with a 4 pol motor though?

[aqwut]

They work with 2, 4, 6+ pole motors... there is a heatsink installed.... just add a small fan for extra cooling... it's great...

The only thing I recommend doing is siliconing the Capacitors together.. or shoeGoo... they need to be secured better...

[jzemaxx]

I wish my emaxx had mech. brakes......guess I'll just have to play with the throttle to slow the truck down on high speed passes.

What are you doing for programming it? Did you buy the programming card?

Do you like to have spares, or have you got 6 vehicles to convert? Starting to sound like me, too many projects!

Am I allowed to choose both.. I like to have a few spares, and I have a few to convert.. I was going to make quad brushless firehammer MT for when I go to the WFRCCC Event, but since I'm not going, I will just make it a dual brushless.. so I'll have 2 Spares..

2 more for the CEN GST and Neu 1527/2.5D, instead of 2x 24.160... I always wondered how would the cheap Hong Kong esc work for the NeuMotors.....

sorry for being off topic...
but I really like those ESCs....

** To get rid of the delay, just set the throttle trim forward to your desired position.. Mine's at 40% Forward, so there's hardly any delay.
