the new Castle Creations P140HV! good for 1/5 conversion?

[Ryu James]

ok, i actually found this now. seems this would be better. i know mike is running the 180 hydra on 8s. all the castle charts recommend the 240hv though for use with the 2215 or 2230 neu motor.

so here is what i dont get. what is the difference between the Phoenix HV and the Hydra HV? what is the best for a surface vehicle? or does it matter? should i just get whatever provides the best ampage?

I think the hydra uses mid point for neutral like car based esc's, I could be wrong

Thats correct, thus making them a bit better for the conversion and not requiring a PiStix adaptor.

i want to avoid having to use any type of adaptor if possible so it sounds like i want to stay away from the heli-plane controllers. where is a good place to buy one of those schultz controllers. i havent really found anywhere good online yet.
