Making an esc better?

b. How much power you need to dissipate? -Easily 2000watts peak handling
c. What temperature range of the ESC and FET's you would like to have?- Does this mean ambient temp? Or the operating temp? I would like to keep the FET's under 30F above ambient.
"How much power you think you dumping on ESC?"-Is this power output? Or heat output?

Related to future ESC-
a. What temperature range of the ESC and FET's you would like to have? (copy of "c")-Again, less than 30F above ambient
b. How long you would like your ESC to work continuous at 25%/50%/75%/100% load?- 25% Continuous, 50% Continuous, 75% 5 mins, 100% 1 min
"What kind of Amp ratings you would like to have from ESC and why?"- Psshh, 200 amps? I don't really want to draw any more than 100 amps, but the FET's will not be stressed, thus no need for heavy cooling.

I will try to answer in this thread (I missed that tread completely, will try to catch-up)
