Easy to set up using the programming card. I am using an 8 cel set up with a 325KV motor - 17x12 APC prop. Over 20 runs with no problems. The only problem I am having is trying to program a throttle curve on a Futaba 8uaps Tx to give more power lower down the curve. When the Tx mix is activated it goes to full power at 25pcnt throttle. Any thoughts? Hence only three points for quality, but good value overall.

Upgrade info I received from HK:
The ESC that you received seems to be upgraded version with same specifications, however it comes with antispark (the red lead has special anti spark resistor in it) and the capacitor set that you named as battery is designed to remove ripple current going from the ESC to receiver, added, third capacitor increases motor running smoothness, run the ESC and enjoy!

I used the programming card to set for 8s voltage cut off. The ESC works well (EF Power 90, turning an APC17x10 for Pattern use). After 8 ground runs it delivers a smooth power response and no overheating.
The only negative I would note would be that this ESC it is not compatible with my Futaba 8UAPS Tx throttle curve mixing, or reverse setting. Better to use the throttle exponential option to set the power curve. Otherwise, I would say good value for $.

Perfect... cheap, and does a wonderful job on a rotomax 50cc-electric replacement :-).
there is only one downside to it, that is the manual, that doesn't clearly indicate how to program it... It was a hell of a job to enter the program-mode with a orange-rx...
So I switched over to 35mhz to program it. Afterwards I've found the 2.4ghz-trick, branching the cable to channel 1 -30seconds after adding the battery to the receiver did the trick(with full throttle at transmitter of course)... Seems like 2.4 needs some additional time :-)

Purchased this unit from a friend who had a valid order number from HK. Brand new out of the sealed package and would not arm.....not matter what configuration. Contacted warranty and they would do nothing because it was more than a year, regardless of all the problems HK has had with this unit, even the chip had the ID grinded off to conceal its origin!. Defective product. Would never purchase another one again. Great pricing.....horrible customer service!

Good ESC

Using it on an electric scooter. 8s 16A/H battery pack. Made a modification to the heat sink though. I know this probably wont help any helicopter guys (or maybe it will). Attached a bigger heat sink with a cooling fan. After multiple full throttle blasts, ESC just slightly warm to the touch

would like to advise all those who buy this particular esc
chrisimopioisoun not never, ever the governor has done tests by highly experienced technicians and here in Greece.
With the governor's vbar works fine.

I challenge everyone to try, not only for this esc but for the 120HV OPTO
