100a MT ESC On Ebay
 

Found this and doubt it would work well with a 1/8 mt- http://cgi.ebay.com/100A-ESC-Brushle...QQcmdZViewItem

Looks interesting but doesnt appeal to me.

You can try it out for all of us. I found the manufacturer and they also make a 10S controller, but I would like to see some one test the car controller first to see how well they do before I ask them for a few 10S controllers.

I really dont want it. Just thought I'd show you guys...

Interesting.
 

Considering his prices has has a few items that look interseting. His motors, controllers, and Lipos are comparable to others that many of us use, at 1/3 the price we are paying the big name places. It would be interesting to here if anyone has tried these out and how well they hold up in our 1/8 and 1/10 vehicles.

That's what I'm waiting for. Specially when the guy that makes them told me the HV ones can have the car software loaded on them and they use that nice little program box. Here is what the company offers:

6S controllers
100A
120A
150A

10S controllers
80A
100A
120A

Now the only problem is that a lot of the places tell me they can do a car model of what they offer, but as soon as I ask them to send me one to try out they back off and say it can't be done. I sent the guy an e-mail asking a few questions like:

1. Will the controllers perform good with 4 and 6 pole slotted motors like a Neu Motor or a Mega Motor?
2. Will the controllers include a program box?
3. Will the controllers have a heat sink and fan?
4. What is the warranty on the controllers if they fail?

Lets see what he comes back with.

Ooh... A 10s controller with (relatively) high amperage... I'm sure I could sink my teeth into a few of those. Lutach, does the manufacturer have a web address?

Info
 

Well the controller in that link has a heatsink and fan attached to it in the photo. We can only assume that the photo is relevent to the item being sold. The ebay add also shows that a program card is included in the sale as per the remark of (included in package) comment. The specs also say 2S to 5S Lipos. With that price I am willing to bet that it is made in China, and as far as a warrenty is concerned enforcing it would be difficult at best. Like the saying goes you get what you pay for. What can anyone expect for $100, when we know that a comparable controller sells for what? $250 to $400. I would think that it will probably do ok, but the life expectancy is probably not that great.

I've found some more like these, looks kind've like a Warrior ESC http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/200A-Brushless...QQcmdZViewItem

Did You See.
 

Did you see the price on that thing? That is like $25 plus shipping for a 200 amp controller. Like I said they are selling directly from China. He has a few items of interest, but the prices are like something out of a Dollar store. Too good to be true I think. Anyone feeling lucky enough to jump on that and Buy one????

does any one think that the lipo chargers that he has are any good

I don't really think $50 for a 4s capable plane controller is all that great of a buy. The $100 car controller I think would be worth a try if it was about $80, just because I think it would be warranty nightmare. Getting up that high I think I would just go with a used good controller, or spend the extra cash for mmm.

Think
 

We can all think of reasons to buy, or not to buy, but until there are some real stats/specs testing to compare it to other controllers it's all speculation. What is being asked is if anyone either has or will try one out. I am sure that there are some that would love the chance to test it out and even disect it to see what it is made of. Maybe one of the "Big Dogs" (like BrianG, or lutach) on here can contact this guy and request one for testing and comparison for marketing purposes within our R/C community?

I have and I'm waiting for the guy to back up his statement if he can make the 6S and 10S into a car version. I was going to get the 100A from him, but it's only good for 5S and I have already tried a 5S not similar in design, but the same specs and uses the same program box. I hate not knowing how to speak Chinese. I was talking with him in MSN messanger last night and he said he would get back to me, but nothing.

If that idea comes through then I'd definately be interested. LMK...:yes:

I'll be more interested in the 10S one though. If he answers me, I'll get a 10S and 6S to see how it'll perform with various motors.
