the hobbyking 90-100esc works fine as a spare. you get used to the slow startup after a while. it only does it if the motor stops spinning. it got really annoying for me because my non-locked transmission allowed the motor to stop almost instantly. this made controlling the truck in mid-air difficult. if your transmission is locked, or you have a flux transmission, or any setup that gets rid of the one way bearing, it shouldn't be much of a problem. just be sure to program the brakes so they don't engage. there is a link to the website to use when programming in the reviews. for <$30, you really can't go wrong. the esc is rated for up to 7s (some have tried 8s) and 6s lipo won't put the esc at too much risk, unlike the MMM or Tekin ESCs.


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.
