...Yes And its way cheaper than schumacher sells http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...verse_programm.
BTW its the same ESC from same OEM factory "Hobbywing"

I'm actually helping Hobbywing with their eZRun line up. We will be sponsoring some local drivers with them for track testing. I'm going to start a thread in rctech requested by Hobbywing. I have 5 systems of each of the 18A (like the one you posted), 35A and 60A. As you know, I was the one who first contacted Hobbywing to make a car ESC and at the time they had no plans to do it. After they annouced the car ESC was coming they sent me a Xerun 120A to test. The new 2.0 version, I already told averyone about a while back and the new program box they have for them was my idea. You can do a search of my posts here to see that I'm not BSing. Here are pictures of the Hobbywing products.

I believe you :)
I am too contacted with HW and they told that have plans and took 1+ year before i saw it on market.
BTW how they look inside 60A version and 120A version can you make some pics? Is it brainboard on separate PCB like on MM?

I'm waiting for GriffinRU to send me the 60A back and from what he told me the 60A ESC looks really good. I'm pretty sure it'll be awesome after the mods he makes. I'll take pictures of the 60A when it comes back. The Brain is separate like the MM. Here are the pics of the Xerun and SP GT.

Wow, look at what the RCCA moderator has sent me:

"While I favor educated and intellectual posts that benefit other members, and the sharing of advice, I certianly can credit you with posting on our forums. You benefit this area and useful knowledge helps veterans and newcomers alike.

Now,.....however,.....your continual market-posting of Hobbywing will have to come to an abrupt and immediate halt. On numerous occasions, we noticed that you repeatedly mention their product and it has underminds and derails the threads at hand that you decide to post within, simply to get their name out there.

While I'm sure they appreciate the free advertisement, it will cease immediately. We have no deviation with their product or company what-so-ever. But, it has been brought to my attention and many of your posts have been reported in the past, and their seems to be a pattern imerging here.

Your compliance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Seems a fair and polite enough note to me... I'd take it for what it is... Its not like they gave you 40 warning points or something...

It also done in a private and polite but firm manner. Pretty proffesional really.... It's not like you don't have any association with HW.

It is fair, but it is not fair when the manufacturer already told me the eZRun line would not have anything to do with Speed Passion. I was going to bring them to the US, but now I have no idea what will happen. I sent an e-mail to Hobbywing letting them know what's up.

My answer and I hope this guy does it:

"Fair enough. I contacted the manufacturer as they told me the eZRun line of products wouldn't have anything to do with Speed Passion. Thanks for keeping this private and I would like for you to delete my post completely from that thread.

Regards,

Luciano."

Let it be! You dont need to promote HW product, if guys want to pay for name let it be. Let them think that they have super duper product from super duper brand. Stupid will allways find where waist the money. Smart guy will smile on that :) We know what that "super duper" thing made by HW :D. If someone search cheaper alternative we can always point them and tell truth.
