We are also seeing some good results on the R1pro with a metal housing to remove heat. The R1pro has more than enough power handling and actually has more fets than our Rx8 or any the 1/8 controllers. Due to its small size it may still have a home in the 1/8 market with a decent heatsink.
We hope to have some good lipos pretty soon and a separate BEC unit as well to take care of all the power needs.

Sweet, thanks for the update. The R1 is rated at 3S, is the RX8 going to be the same?
