Losi 1/8 ESC works great with latest firmware -

I am using the Losi 1/8 ESC in my Rustler and it works good now with the latest firmware installed. For the life of me I couldn't get the AM radio to work properly with the ESC, but the 2.4ghz radio had no issues. With the new firmware, some settings have changed, cogging dissappeared, and an AM TX/RX setup works with no problems.
Personally I like the casing and wrap around heatsink better then the cheapo looking one from Castle. The losi ESC comes with those 4mm socket connectors instead of some wires like the Qaurk, MGM, Castle and LT controllers. Software is not as refined as the Castle one, but it isn't bad either. Uploading the firmware takes longer then the Castle products, but how often do you really upgrade firmware?
