New ESC and it's looking good

$179 for unknown vs. $170 for castle? Nice find, but you know where my money's going! :)

I'm with you there...especially since I only spent $152 on my MMM from Mike.

Yes, the price is above the Monster Max. They only sent me ths unit because the 50V and 63V ones are not ready. Those are the ones I'll be really interested in.

I understand. Let us know how this one works out. Did they give you a timeline on the HV models?

Ah. Yup, those would be much more interesting.

The Scorpion stuff isn't really unknown. They're new, but not knockoffs.

You sneak! I was waiting on one as well

Keeps sync really well from my testing, but mine didn't have the Car startup on it. They will probably beat Castle to the 12s market here.

Sorry . Man this controller is nice. Starts my Mega ACn22/30/2 with out a problem and I'm loving the BEC. It works perfect with 6S.

How hot does it get? I'm guessing it's pretty smooth if it can start a 6 pole motor huh?

I bench tested for a few seconds and it didn't get warm at all. I also tried to see if the BEC would get warm at all and nothing. I'm having a blast with the Wireless programming.

Maybe thats why so many EVX2s have been going up in smoke over at the traxxas forum....

Thanks for sharing this lutach. I hope it goes well and the market will see a 12s car esc soon. Personally, the more of this we can get on the market, the more pressure it puts on all involved to step up.

I'm trying my best. I have asked for a 12S and up controller from basically all the companies that makes ESC. Hoping to see 2 maybe 3 US companies with one. I wish Aveox came back to the market. Specially now that we see 1/8 scale brushless and the need for HV.

Have you seen the Aveox website lately? If you have interest in the stuff they sell, you basically have to email them and ask a million questions- all the old motor charts and stuff have vanished when the new website was created. i never did undersand how they rated different motors properly, and now i never will :(
