Well when i heard about a guy on here running the 1527 in his 30lbs 4x4 baja... and his was geared for 80mph with the ice ESC running on 10s... I couldnt believe it! He said his temps were very cool.. .around the 110f range!

I love the sound of this air ESC... and in use with the pistix it works very well!

My cogging has been reduced, and although brian did warn me that it wouldnt be as smooth as an MMM, i really believe it is just as smooth or even better..... But the lack of motor brakes is a shame.. .but i always preferred the feel of mech brakes anyway.

I really need to run a lot more before i give my opinion.

Now that, I cannot believe - unless it is being actively cooled. My 1527 goes up to 160F on my 19lb buggy on 10s. No matter how good these motors are, they have less than 100% efficiency. So if you are putting a lot of power through them, some of that power is lost to heat - the motors will heat up.

That does sound incredible. As Brian said, it's doubtful that it's true, maybe he lives in a very very cold place.

Was it easy to program the Ice ESC for Car use? And have you gotten around to running the car full throttle yet? :P
