      Regardless of the ESC, you must secure the water tubing with wrap ties and the brass water inlets and outlets should be longer. As an aside in my opinion the merits of your style of water cooling for the fets do not add much protection and what electrical insulation are you going to use.

            i had something simular on a excelorin losi esc and worked great but it was higher quality car esc converted and worked great till i blew a cap and then the world came crashing down, so how do i cool the caps to keep them from spilling is it load or amps that killed my caps. i put this on a 60 hk esc and it wouldnt power up with external pack but i never checked the esc before cooling it with stock heatsink there good for about 10 runs but was looking for something a little bit more durable but i have a cc monster i want to trade for a swordfish with pc program. want to keep it if possible
