Wiring Question

High, quick question, will I be able to run a brushless motor to a 60a ESC, right to the stock radio powered by a 11.1 lipo without frying my proboat? If not was ESC rating should I use and or what power source. Thanks

or should i use a higher rated ESC like 120a?

the amp rating on the speed control does not matter. the only problem you would run into with frying the radio is the BEC(battery eliminator circuit) in the speed control. which as far as i have seen any speed control of decent quality, the bec built in will usually function up to 4 cell 14.8 without issue. you should check the speed control's bec rating though to be sure. if it is not up to it you can always purchase an external bec that will handle anything you can throw at it.
