Earlier in the thread the Prez said the MT would double the # of Fets, so current should double I would guess. What the current rating of the R1pro is IDK, I don't see it on the website under specs (would be useful info... :007: ) Maybe its buried somewhere, but I don't care enough to go digging now.

Would a safe guess be 100A? Assume then the MT will be 200A?

I would not be suprised if CC and Tekin are planning to use the same Fets, there are only so many component manufacturers, and these are particularly well suited to the app....

Prez said they are rated as 30V, and with the explaination of the motor braking voltage spikes, I doubt it would be much higher. However, I do think that if one were to use manual brakes, its quite possible that either the CC or Tekin esc would run 6S safely. I think the info on the Fets also explains why the MM can run 5S well.

Hell it might even be possible to run the MM @ 6S using man brakes and not too hot of a motor (say on a 1/10 scale) and not fry the esc. It would make sense that the MM and MMM would use the same fets from a business perspective. What we'd end up buying is bigger Amp capacity and heat dissipation, not necc higher voltage capacity with the larger ESCs.
