EDIT: With that high of voltage, do you also need the super high current rating too? Isn't the main reasoning behind using an HV system to help keep current draw low? Even 100A at 56V would be over 7 horsepower! I would think 100-200A is more than enough.
You're Right. I do not want to use a fan, and the electronics will run much cooler at the load I will be operating at. Also, the potential for more added power is there. Just a safety factor. I remember back in the days when I was running 2x Schulze 40.160WK to power 2 1950 motors. It was such a good feeling of not worrying about the ESC frying...

ESC is on it's way, now how am I going to run 15S? 3x 5S cells?... I may give HK's Nano-Tech a test run with this!

I can't wait until it gets here..
