It's not just the heatsink, but the thermal pads Quark uses to secure the PCB to the case. Not only is it not the best thermal conductor, but it sometimes "lets go" and the FETs don't even touch the case anymore. There is a mod that removes these pads and uses thermal adhesive instead, but that voids the warranty and need to create a new spacer slab. Just search around and you'll eventually see the mod details.

Once the mod is done though, it helps a TON. I ran a 125B in my old Revo and still in my Hyper8 buggy and they worked great. They are VERY smooth even at really slow speeds. I still think they are smoother than the MM or MMM even with the newer software.

ok, the a quark esc is good and cheap for me?
mmm is bad for me because i must order in usa and when the esc is broken i have high fees for sending it back. i read much bad thing for this esc, its often burns. whats about the v3 version? shall i wait for it? i think this is the cheapest esc for 6s?

will i need the quark 125a or can i use the 80a version?

125 or 80 depends on what your planned setup is. For a CRT I'd go with a Neu 1515 2.5d or 1.5y on 5s. With that setup you *should* be able to use the 80a, but the 125a is a safer choice.

Also, I'd get the quark in your part of the world. Castle is sort of a USA controller. I hope all with the V3 MMM's go well, and then they can be shipped worldwide without fear of frying, and huge return shipping prices.
