Seaking Boat ESC recalled by factory

[sailr]

I have one of the Suppo 200HV's. Some say it's a Schulze clone. I am willing to sell the controller for $150 shipped in the U.S.

suppo makes the 200 amp 10-15S ESC as well. One layer of fets that could be easy to cool.

not outside US ??

These are the changes made to the 60A and larger Seaking esc's:

The program is changed, the built-in BEC is changed. The capacitors, FET are not changed now.

[sailr]

Shipping will be much higher outside the U.S. So for outside the U.S. we will have a price PLUS shipping instead of a price including shipping (inside the U.S.) That is all I meant. I am not ruling out international shipping.

The 180amp just went back on sale V2

Got yours sailr $....how much r yours?

[sailr]

Who has them back on sale? For what price? I suspect they are "pre-selling" anticipating receipt of the esc's around the end of the month. BTW, V2 is the version that was recalled, NOT the latest.

There is some confusion with the factory right now concerning my cost. Seems they raised it a LOT so I may cancel my order. I think it will be straigtened out when the owner returns to China from Chicago trip. So I'm not quoting a price just yet.

A while back when I was at himodel I asked to be notified when the 180 came back in stock well I got notified by email that they where back in stock for $92

A pal just got email notification the V2 are in stock too.
They look just the same as the old version?
My 180 is still going strong on 4S..
I think we will wait for test reports first before we buy any of the new versions.

After every one that sold these I can only think these have to be the new versions...they would not restcok the old versions. It is only a program change and some small stuff so I tend to think these are it. No number change or anything like that

I agree Jeff
Himodel is a reputable vendor I don't think they would knowingly put a known issue back out on the market

This one will set the std for all cheap ESCs...and posiibly do even better against even the bigger names. Also more of HV are also coming out that will be cheaper.

THis stuff will continue to get better ...motors included....and prices will fall.

But, you cook them you can pitch them. Etti has proven great service for me and dealers. I suspect they might have a 200+ amp LV in the works but can't confirm that.
