    short video test run of my SS45

    I ran 2.5 mins but just 1mins of this video, my phone is out of memory, after adding more caps for 40160 esc, the temp is much lower, just 120 degree v.s 140 before, cell is 6s2p Hyperion G3 5500, 35c, Neu 2215 1y.

          Here you go Richard, I added caps myself for 2 old style 40160 (inside the boat) with exactly caps they used for original one, ordered from Schulze and I also order another 2 new style xl 40160 and i requested them to add caps for me.

            Thanks for the pict's Kevin... Looks like a nice clean layout.. I have one old style 40.160 with 5 extra caps added from Schulze,, never any heat issues... I have another new style xl40.160 that I am going to add caps myself...

            What type of heat difference have you seen from the mod's??

                      x, these are a bit more expensive them CC hydra esc(which are the only ones i am familar with) it looks like they are about double the price? do you think they are worth it?

                        A search alone for failed Schultz esc wont bring much up, on the other hand you do a search for Hydra 240 and you will find quite alot of un happy people

                        I just bought 2x 40.160wk for my Cat that i bought off Kevin ^^ (the one in his avatar) and i promised id only buy the best for it, and be sure to look after it.
                        So the schultz it was.

                        Ive not much experiance at all, but ask plenty of Questions to those that do.
                        And everyone of them said get the Schultz, thats enough for me

                          I noticed Schulze 40160 can take more punch than CC240HV and trouble free, dont judge it by the number (160A) its can handle alot more than that, btw, I burned once Schulze 40160 not too long ago because I left it in water more than 15 mins with power and everything plug-in.

                          Ryan, sorry i took so long to chance my avarta
