Make note that this thing only gives a 55amps continuous and 65-70amps surge. It isn't really a good choice for MTs.
In my experience, my lower amp esc work's most efficient with an appropriately geared automatic 2 speed transmission. For example, I have an esc that runs most efficent at ~35amps. The pwm kicks in after ~50amps or so but I don't notice the pwm kicking in when I use an automatic 2 speed tranny like the tmaxx or Revo trannies. Now, if I put this same esc/motor in my single speed losi 8ight the pwm kicks in very quickly as the amps spikes are much higher with the single speed so I am no longer considering using this esc for the 8ight. I plan to get some eagletree comps once I get my G2R back together. The auto two speed tranny is a great load buffer but you do sacrifice a percentage of the instant power capability of the higher amp esc's.
