This is so tempting!

Found this browsing ebay- http://cgi.ebay.com/ESC-100A-RC-Brus...sid=p1638.m122

Im wondering if I mod it correctly would I be able to run it on a 1/8 truck? I know that it only has certain brake proportions so what could I do?

Somebodies gotta test it.

I know right... Im almost certain it wont work though. Im pretty sure it wont handle the load I'll be applying to it.

You could use it in something like a Revo, and retain the mechanical brakes.

heyyy budyyyyy....-_- you do realize that that esc is the same build as the Pulso On OSE-which you said has no potential and would not be good in a car....

Indeed, it is a forwards only thing, good for boats and planes. There are much higher spec ones available which do the same thing, and some even have proper brakes- see Lutach's Hv voltage esc thread.

The engineer still needs to figure out the reverse. Everything else is working good. He even destroyed his truck testing the 60A 15S controller. He said it was too powerfull and he lost control. I'm just waiting to see what really happens.

So do you think that this could possibly work...?

You the mechanicl brake like 83gt said and it might work. If you want other choices, look at the following:

Thanks for the extra link's Lutach! I think I've found which ESC Im getting. I love the price/adjustability options on the 120a ESC- http://www.himodel.com/electric/HiMo...d_Control.html

Now that Ive seen that, thats what I have my eyes set on.

[Takedown]

Oh great... Both of the ESC's I want from your list are out of stock.

I dont think that speed control will work. I had the 80A version of that one(mystery they called it) and on a 1/8th buggy and 10l motor geared a couple teeth lower than recommended for that setup, and it melted the shrink wrap off the esc. It lasted 2 runs and it stopped working.

I have tried a 200A controller made for boats. It worked great. People seem to like that 200A controller mentioned above and that is the reason it's always out of stock and I wouldn't compare it to the 80A mystory.
