Our BL Crawler systems are similar but the blue sensor wire is enabled differently; The Goat esc must sense a Novak BL Crawler motor attached to enable the crawler specific (not, TOP) circuitry. If you use a different mfg's motor, the crawler-specific program is not enabled. If the esc does not detect a Novak CR motor, the esc reverts to standard Havoc (not Crawler) performance.

I do not know that any other mfg enables the blue sensor wire (for anything)---and, believe me, many customers don't like it a bit. They believe their options are being limited. Maybe they are; however, with the low-cost Havoc Spec systems, we didn't want beginners burning up their electronics and returning them for "free" replacements. If you damage the motor stator, or weaken the magnet, you can pull enough current thru the esc to melt it down.
