Lol, this is going to be interesting to say the least. Even if it is a brand new ESC, LRP's other brushless units are incredibly unreliable...they're always frying from overcurrent, or for no apparent reason (within spec). That already doesn't bode well for this thing, IMO.

But if this is their new SPX or one of their Sphere models with a few tweaks, then it's going to be - in my opinion - hopeless. I can't see that sensored 1/8th is going to last anyway, but if they can't make a reliable 1/10th ESC, then I dread to think how this is going to fare under the greater stresses of 1/8th. They'll probably charge through the nose for it, too.

I might well be wrong, but that's how I see it.
