A China made controller will be cheaper than the US made controller for a long time, until the yaun (I think) overtakes the $. Having the dollar lose power in the world economy is strange, but it is happening. I know it will be good for the US economy in the long run though, as it will bring more business into the country.

I just can't imagine what kind of KV motor you would put in a 12s system - it would have to be pretty dang low. I'm sure we'll be seeing it in the future though.

I have a Neu 1521/1.5Y that can handle 10S and it will spin at around 44000rpm with 12S. The point of a controller that can handle 12S or more is to use less AMPs. It will give you better run times, plus you can use good 2200-2500mAh packs. This is the main reason why I keep asking for it.

I see - well, that's awesome. I've always been worried about the higher rpms when you go to the HV stuff. But your logic is exactly why I am going with the 6s in my XT8 so I'm with you there. Reduce the amps and increase the voltage for better efficiency and temp control. I just didn't know how far to take it.
