Those ESC have more car modes and are intended for 1:10 cars. They have a cell limit of 10 cells (NICD/NIMH).

But besides the software the Jazz 80 and jazz 70 car is identical. Some guy in germany even uses his Jazz 70 with 12 cells NimH.

All Jazz controllers (without the car extension) are multipurpose ESC which have 2 car, heli and Aircraft modes.

Jazz ESC are picking up momentum in germany when it comes to 1:8 car use. Most guys use the Jazz 80 with a Fun 600/21 (or 25) in their Emaxx, Ezillas, twinforce or 1:8 Buggys with 4s lipos. My first setup im my buggy was a Jazz 80 with a fun 600/25 and 12 cells Nimh. This components still are working great in my Ezilla. But the Kontronik motor is not as efficient as a Neu and will heat up (thus needs a fan and/or heatsink). Due to the Amps flowing (around 100A burst) when only using 4s the Jazz 80 needs at least a heatsink.

Kontronik btw doesn't recommend Jazz ESC (without car extension) for car use.
