Hi,

Thanks to the suggestions by knowlegeable members here, I have managed a semi-successful run today.

In frustration of the uncertainties I faced on controller reliablility, I bought an Eagle tree data recorder thingy to try to capture some data to try to figure what what went wrong. I strapped the recorder on & did some bench test. Peak amp while throttling up reached in excess of 50amps albeit for a short time only.

I took the buggy for a test run at my local make shift track this afternoon. The track is very small is no straight but a constant series of turns some tight others not. Mixed in between the corners there is a double & a triple & a table top. Ambient tempearture was about 30 deg C.

I am happy to report that the esc held up & did not thermal. However, the bad news is that I did not manage to last the distance of a single pack as I have somehow managed to strip my plastic spur.

Anyway, here are some photos.

Regards,
