yes, it is the supersimple esc.

i loosened up my gear mesh and it ran consistantly at 145F. half throttle will violently flip the truck over. if it had a wheely bar, it would do standing backflips at about half throttle. it has more balls than the flux. the top speed is not as high though. i left it 2 speed for now. i ran for almost 45mins with the 3s lipos in parellel today. top speed was about 15mph because it couldn't shift into 2nd gear.

i am glad i bought a 1400kv KB45-12l motor when i ordered the esc and charger. the 1400kv motor is smaller and will hopefully be more controllable. runtimes with that motor should also be pretty good.


They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
