    ESC advice needed

    Looking to purchase an esc 90-200A for my MG
    Running an 1800kv on 4cell x447 the 60 has been holding but gets warm in short order
    You all have used them all, so what should I get. I don’t want to plug it in get a little water on board and poof magic smoke
    Don’t have to have this week as the ice has now formed on my beloved pond but want to get one ordered for the thaw.
    Post or pm me please with your positive actual use of the brand suggested

      some times in turns but not overly worried about the heat just want to run larger with less worry of mid lake melt down

        I had a Seaking 180 in my MG and it is a great ESC..Also I recommend waterproofing any esc you get..I use liquid tape..Get the SK180 and dont look back..You can run up to 6s as well..http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...er-seaking-180 or here http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s..._Boat_ESC.html ... Watch stock often they will have them shortly..

          I second this one, after I got the SeaKing everything seemed to run a bit cooler. Running the 447 your will see the Amp draw around 90-105amps as I recall. I ran this prop with my stock 45amp speedo and was amazed it never burned up!
