Does anyone know how the Vxl esc will handle multipole motors?

i thought 2 pole motors are all the velineon escs can run. hmmm....

as far as what a velineon motor can handle, with a motor fan, very brief bursts on 5S. meaning 6-7 seconds at a time, max.

Even after that, you're gonna already be about 185-190 degrees.

i've gotten one up to 245 degrees by running 3 speed passes on 5S. it's a very fine line since their only supposed to be running 50K max rpms and their rpm limits aren't very forgiving. mambas have been known to far surpass their rpm limits and the new bearings they have in their motors make them able to handle very very high rpms for short periods of time. most of the TC3-4 -5 guys are runnning the 7700 or 5700's and regulary run them on 4-6S
