I'd agree with that, which is why I am puzzled that they are advertising it as pulling 3s with the Flux xs motor which is less efficient (cheaper magnets and runs hotter) so if anything would be harder on the ESC, no wonder the failure rate is as high as it is.

I'd get a cheapy $40 Hobbyking 120A esc and coat the thing in liquid tape or silicone, if it blows, well it's $40, but the one in my Savage Flux is still kicking and I haven't really been nice to it!
