Also, a 12S BEC would be an issue -- high voltage BECs that can handle a significant amount of current are huge. So, I would prefer to do it as an opto system.
So, an opto system, 60V design isn't too difficult. I just need to find time for the design. Got so many other things going on...

I can work with opto as most of my ESC are opto. I think demand is there, but once folks understand the benefits of HV, there should be more demand and I'm sure the boat guys will use it as well. The Monster will be using the SUPERSO8 (TDSON-8) package MOSFET and Infineon has a BSC079N10NS that seems real good. I wanted to try something with my HV110 that I still have to send to Castle for repair. The MOSFET that I wanted to use has a 14 week lead time and the only one available is a 100V that has a cont. 34A at 25C and 21A at 100C. It has the same SO-8 foot print. All I would need is a simple forward/brake car program if it's possible. I called you, but I think it was on the day you were out sick. I know you are very busy and I would rather have you do it to my controller than waste a good one.
