Thank you!!

The capacitor is just like all of the smaller units that alot of people run on their ESCs to help with power delivery. This ESC came with that cap right out of the box. I am sure that several smaller caps would work better but since this is what it came with, thats what I have been using.

As far as the ESC goes, I have been running it extremely hard for about 4 years... it is by far the most reliable piece of equipment that I have used. Zero problems, totally waterproof, handles 4s or 12 cells. I have ran 14 on it quite frequently though. It is only supposed to handle 80A cont. or 120 burst but I have ran a 8XL on it for along time. Just got the Medusa and lipo, hopefully the controller can handle it, if not, I figure a MM is in the future. The ESC is large and heavy but very reliable.
