    Best ESC for Leopard 2845, 2950Kv

    Just bought a Mini sinper from a great member on here. He's already install this new leopard 2845 2950kv motor. Looking for a great esc to run this little guy to it full potential. The mount will also fit 36mm motors to. Have a Castle 1512 1800kv if im not happy. He suggested a 60+ amp esc....Any suggestions?

    The Leopard 2845/3y (2960rpm/volt) is rated at 39 amps max. A decent 60-amp esc should be fine.

        I was thinking the ul-1 esc. I like the turnigys but never had much luck with the 60-amp versions. Heck, what about a t-120 or swordy just to be safe? The price is good.

          Your the 3rd or 4th person who has said the 60amp esc's aint the best....T-120 sounds more like my style "overpowering" LOL. If im not happy with that little leopard i'll throw in a 1512 jsut because.

                Unless you wait until the special one time offer pops up a few minutes after you have been staring at the page. They should give you an offer of $40.

                sTILL LIKE THE 120 BETTER.
