A few smart ones knows best that there's no bloody way any small ESC can deliver anywhere near 200A on a continuous bases. With that said, Castle Creations, Tekin and a few of others will not over rate their ESC like many do. So yes, the hobby industry does need a standard to be set, but we also need the manufacturers to come clean as well.

There should be some standard and I think the mfg's you mentioned do follow this. However the problem comes in with these knock-off companies that make something that works ok and then bogus numbers fly. When I was boating heavily, their was a claim on a Hobbycity esc of 2-6s capable, but when questioned, they stated the ESC shouldn't be used on more than 4s applications....
