    Who makes a high quality ESC at a reasonable $.

    Shopping for a 120 amp ESC to replace a stock Aqua Craft ESC out of a UL-1. I'm willing to spend $ for a reliable unit, just don't want to break the bank.... you know a good value.

            turnigy 180 on 6s is what i run, burnt a 80 hv but everything else is better than the good stuff in my opinion, pull the trigger on hobbycity esc, you wont be dissapointed and at 50$ you cant beat it ( 50 for the turnigy 120)

                Any time you can buy American and support these forums that provide us all with an invaluable meeting place to discuss and learn about FE you should do so.....not to mention if something goes wrong with what you bought you have great service to rely on.

                Buy OSE

                    Havent seen the swordfish 120, but that looks like a great deal for buying one local, with a warranty and alot less $$ on shipping!

                        Be careful bustitup! Every time I say something like you just did I get FLAMED by the BUY IT CHEAP advocates on OSE!

                        Needless to say I agree with you 100% and it has nothing to do with my business because I don't compete with HobbyKing, etc. My products are unique. I just think if you want to have a great source for products and enjoy the best forum in the R/C world, you should support that whenever you can.

                        Good to know about the Swordfish!
