Waterproof Brushed 40A ESC with Dirtproof Switch for 1/10 Traxxas HPI Redcat Tamiya RC Truck, Buggy, Short Course Truck and Rock Crawler

I'm running these in my vintage cars with mild brushed motors and Nimh 7.2v batteries and they are plug and play for that application. If the forward goes right into reverse as has been reviewed here, it was configured incorrectly. In practice mode it will go forward pulling the trigger then brake for pushing the trigger. Then pushing the trigger again will trigger reverse. I have this in some tight configurations and the capacitor legs can be carefully bent 90 degrees to the outside if height is a problem. I have a few and one more as a spare in my kit.

I pulled my Super Blackfoot that I built in 1994 out of the closet and replaced the radio that had battery leak damage and was having a blast with it. I decided to finally replace the old stock mechanical speed controller with this and I am very happy with it. Great price and works great! Truck is running very well!

I'm in the process of revamping a number of old RC boats, I mean 75mhz type, yea old. I had an old two channel with a bad speed control so I thought what the heck, the price is right and the hookups were right on. In short, it works great, even with the old analog receiver.

Purchased this speed controller for my vintage blackfoot. Works great. Hooked it up off i went.

It has lots of power with no noticeable delays. Using pwm form a raspberry pi\pca9685. 5000mh 2s power is safe so far also. Power switch and mode selector are fine. push button on\off would be better but no complaints so far.

Ran it and it blew up after a few minutes of light running on my rc boat waste of money unless you want to catch something on fire.

Using these in RC cars and combat robots. Looks identical to the ESC's that come in 1/10 horizon hobbies RC cars.Before I switched to these, I was using the smaller cheaper 10A ESC's with a separate battery elimination circuit which doesn't turn out to be any cheaper since you have additional wiring to manage and additional connections to make.The on/off switch is very convenient. I have not tested the low voltage cutoff or the water resistance, but if the low voltage cutoff works - this is a no brainer for using LIPO batteries.

Great
