Besides...a true 275A controller like you're talking about would be simply too big to be practical in 1/8th scale. And if you used such a controller in larger models, the current throughput of the whole system due to the 6S limitation would render the whole system insanely inefficient and unreliable.
I agree. They're rated to 120A continuous but the components are good for 200ish. The only way to thermal one is if the fan breaks or if you are really pushing it too far. IMO 120-150 amps is all you need in an ESC as long as it's rated accurately, anything more than that and you should gear down or volt up.


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.
