I haven't completed the layout of the control board yet -- I'm using a 72V maximum input switching BEC for the HV version of the board -- But I'll make it so that an external BEC can be used (Brian!)

Ok, so basically being able to switch all the FETs, it would be possible to get a lot of FETs in a PCB that is a little larger then what the Monster Max uses. So a ESC that can go as high as 400A is possible to keep things of the safe side if one wants to use a Neu 1527/1D, 2215/1Y, 2230/1Y or a Lehner 3080-5. Patrick, I would put a high priority on such a controller
. We are hungry for it.
