The speedy comes with some healthy looking caps onboard so I didn't bother with them. I did add a fan ; mostly because Brad gave me a few and this one just fit on top perfectly even though there's so little airspace in the H&M. You may find that the cooling lines from your CC 240 need to be re-done since the 180 lines exit at 90 degrees from the motor & battery wires- no real biggie I'm sure.
Anyone have anything bad to say about the Turnigy 180 Controller?

Glad you could make use of some of those fans. A little extra cooling never hurts, even with limited airspace.
Have a good one......

I hope they are a good ESC, i will be using mine in a 37.5" Mono hull with a Feigao 580 9l motor and 2x 22.2v lipos 6s in parallel, i hope it will handle it.Comment

Here is a question, which esc will handle a Neu 1527 1Y motor on 6s better, the Turnigy 180 or the Swordfish 240HV?Team Liquid DashComment

I would not apply 6S voltage to the Turnigy 180. That is just my 2 cents as I prefer to err on the side of caution and I hate the smell of a toasted ESC

The 240 hv probably. I have both. Haven't run the swordfish though. I am a firm believer in not running an esc or anything for that matter to the max rated specs. It's just asking for trouble. I have run 5s on the seaking in many setups with a rx pack without fail and low temps. I'll be using the swordfish in a 1/8 scale hydro with littlescreamers outrunner. My cat has twin 1515 1y's, seaking 180's and 5s 1p for each power plant. the seakings run flawlessly in that setup.Comment

I just got some more lipos and another monster 200 turnigy from hc..... 7 days after order was in my hands..... Like someone else posted they moved there warehouses and it delayed stuff.... I think I've had 30 transactions with hc.... Not once have I had a bad experience.... I also run my turnigy 180's on 6s just fine..... I run one in my mean machine with a 1515 1.5y on 6s and I'm actually going to run one in my drifter l with a 9xl on 5s and 6s.... The drifter has a hydra 120 I don't want to kill so I'm gonna use my tried and true turnigy 180's.... Great esc....And easy to program even without a program card.... Tho I do have a program card sometimes I forget it at home..... Well I better go back to installing the kayak racks on the suv..... Boating season is here in Vermont:)Comment

Does anyone know whether or not the Turnigy 180A features a thermal shutdown?

I have three of those 180A, all perform great after I learned I must apply silicone seal to all joint gaps of the case. I cooked one a year back when water found its way in. Never again since then even the ESC get SUBMERGED in water-- silicone seal is a great invent.Comment
