The spec sheet can be found here.

They did not rate it yet for burst current. The smaller one is rated for 60A cont and the bigger one for 80A cont. The product description in german states that whith proper cooling they are able to provide up to twice the amount of Amps continouus (120 or 160A). I guess burst current may be 20% higher off those doubled values. Theoretically those ESC should be able to push a 1:5 rc car (5.5 and 7KW continouus with 12s Lipo and 3.7V per cell).

Judging from my eagletree records which show Amp peaks of up to 120A on the Jazz 55-10-32 i run (speced for 65A burst), i have no doubts about their statement that those continouus Amp values are minimum values (which can be doubled with proper cooling).

2 interesting features on the jive series ESC: they are waterproof and do have an integrated switching BEC up to 12s lipo. Small downside. Only forward with brakes (no car mode with reverse).
