need hi amp 30v esc - 03.28.2008, 09:35 AM

Yo I’m back again with another project
I’m chasing a basic brushless control that will handle 100+ amps up to 30v basic means not to expensive like forward and reverse and that’s it.
Does anyone know if it exists?

Well, this 7s/200A is close for a really cheap price. I was really eyeing this one, but not sure how well it works for cars or if it has reverse. 7s=26v.

If you want 30v, I assume you are looking at an 8s setup? That's starting to get into the "HV" realm and those aren't really cheap. There are a few aircraft ones around for cheap, but you generally have the slow ramp-up in throttle which some don't like, the burst current isn't all that great, and most don't have reverse (although you could do some type of mechanical servo-actuated reverse system). And some air ESCs won't work with a pistol grip radio without a pistix adaptor.

Wow, that ESC is not a bad price as all.... that thing can pump out 5100+ Watts?.. for only $65... that's friggin' cool...

I'm sure it would get quite hot, actually.

Hayden, I think you may have to save up for an MGM or equivalent to get all of the features you are looking for.

That's that big monster sized ESC that was going on ebay a while back with some cheap motor included, right ? I think it was going for about $100. I heard some people did fairly OK with that ESC, and I think it had reverse iirc.

Heck, for that price I might grab two of them, lol.

Thanks for the info I got an on road carfor speed runs, I run 2x 4 cell lipo packs and I wire them up as 8 cell when doing speed runs and I wire them up parallel when drifting for more capacity. so it needs to be a minimum 4-8 cell esc and it needs to handle a 1940 I do have an 160amp mgm control but that’s very expensive so I don’t want to crash the car, I need a cheep one.

So, if you had a cheap ESC, you'd want to crash the car? lol, j/k. It's just how your post sounded. Your best best for cheap 4-8s ESCs will be aircraft ones - you just might have some issues with reverse, braking, throttle calibration, and burst current ratings...
