    If you plan on keeping it for awhile might as well just invest the money into it now. A lot of guys are at a dilemma with ESC's. The sf's look to be garbage IMO and terrible customer service.

      Ok but what no one can seem to offer is a recommendation on a reliable esc for the motors I am using. Maybe no such thing exists.

        Just run two T-180's that's about your most practical option. Unless you want to gamble on a swordfish. If you want to spend big bucks go on the MGM website.

          I had recommended the Etti's but if the cooling isn't reworked you will blow another. If going 7s or under their 150 is tuff.
          BTW they are epoxy coated so water resistant not waterproof

          There is Flier, lots of options there. Totally not waterproof though.

            I just replaced the esc in my spartan with a sf 220 pro + running a cc1515 2200kv motor 6's 47mm/3 blade prop data logging showed 58 amp max good speed and ran cool. After reading this hope i don't have esc issues butt data logging can really help. Esc temps were 72 after a 3 min run but my water temp is low 50's right now.
