ESC in flames

I ran the esc on 8s in my Muggy and it never got hot. I'd really like to know where that 180amp spike came from. In my Muggy geared for the same or higher speeds the max I got was 150amps on 8s.

The LT10s is in my XXL now, but I'm afraid to run it.

sorry for that! beside the usual suspects - maybe it's just a faulty esc.

I used to have a scorpion 120a, unfortunately w/out the car programm (it was ment to have tthat car program), which worked for about two batteries. but suddenly, it just smoked, w/out any reason, two minutes after plugging in, the car not moving... fortunately got replacement, but sold that one.
lost my faith in that scorpion. they claim to have high-quality stuff, but even my cheapo plane esc's have proven more reliable, that's for sure.
