My second one. I fried the first one because i had the timing to high. Set it to 0* now and it runs great. Running 6s separate bec and tgy 4074 1400kv motor with a 52mm 3-blade prop. All temps are fine because I made extra cooling. Dont know the speed, have not got a logger but its fast. Hope this helps somewhat.

Did my first run and was very impressed.

Crashed my boat because I ran out of water. Running 6s and tgy 4074 1900kv Oh by the way the boat was fully submerged for 10min I let the water run out and everything works perfect!!!! I also put epoxie glue on my receiver board.This esc comes with extra capacitors it does not show on the pics.Must use a antispark it gives a hell off a spark if you dont. Guys i hope this was usefull.

questo regolatore * perfetto fino a lipo 5s bec incluso, spingerlo a 6S significa stare sempre molto al limite e bruciare il condensatore ceramico con conseguenze sul resto della barca.

This controller is perfect for up to 5s lipo bec included, push to 6S means to be always on the limit and burn the ceramic capacitor with consequences on the rest of the boat.

Have owned 2 of these and unfortunately both have died. The first died during bench testing letting out the magic smoke for no apparent reason and the second almost took my boat with it in a pretty decent fire.

That said however, as far as performance goes, the ESC really was pushed to its limits with insane speeds often Turning the boat into a plane or submarine depending on which way it was facing when power applied. Even using 5S the esc was comfortable and failures were most likely from salt water use despite being protected as much as possible. Anyone that buys one of these should ensure that a protective coating is applied to the electronics outside of the box as they are definitely a weak point. As far as viable cheap escs go capable of 5s and above there aren't many other choices.

Great esc. I have pushed this one hard on 6s and it is still going strong. I am using a seperate bec. I blew my boat over , broke the hull in half. esc was submerged in saltwater, still powered up in till I retreived the peices of the boat. I flushed it with fresh water let it dry out, sprayed it with corrosion block and it is still going strong months later in another hull. The only thing I don't like about this esc is it's kind of strange shape and the cap bank just hanging off of it. Makes it a little hard to install in some tight places...If you have the room though you can't go wrong with this esc.
