I run a 2.2 crawler with an outrunner and a sidewinder, plus a 6x6 1.9 rig with an axi and a MM. Both use the same firmware as the MMM and both perform so well that I have witnessed 3 people ditch their brushed motors to go to brushless. I also have a few novak sensored setups, and they work as well, save for the lack of drag brake that the castle products offer. I doubt the SP startup can be much better, but I have not run one so I will not wave my ignorance around blindly like a dirty old man with a Benjamin in a brothel!
Just want to point out that the castle escs run all kinds of crawler motors very well, surf on over to rccrawler and see all the pros running MMs and sidewinders. I have not seen a SP esc over there yet, and those guys are not afraid to spend money...

Maybe thats why your ESC endeavors haven't panned out like you've planned.
Just a thought

I have watched and participated with Luciano for a year or so, and think he is quite successful considering rc is not his livelihood, and he has a beautiful young daughter to care for as a full time single parent. I can only say that I wish we had more hobbyists like Luciano trying to better the hobby... I know he may sound a bit harsh, but if you go back and read the threads on rctech? you will see why. Ole Palmer threw out some BS, Luciano called him on it, and then Palmer started backpedaling... I believe that Luciano is correct, and the HW 80 esc is basically the same thing as the SP unit. We have all seen the tests of the HW80 and it is obviously underrated a bit, and SP have bumped their specs to compete with other mfgs posted specs (not necessarily correct either). As far as having someone in the US to cover warranty and repairs that is a good thing, and possibly worth the addl cost.

I could go on further but you get the point. Lutach has been very forthcoming about who he is and where he stands. Shouldn't you do the same? It's obvious you have some kind of iron in this fire, so why not just by forthcoming and not hide behind the internet.

How do you know my name? Are you stalking me Brian (if that is your real name?) Did you steal my lint out of the washeteria dryer? You are creepy, stop lurking around my house with that trench coat on.

Product testing is key. Always good to know what you sell.
