40.160 (new) or 40.161

[vvviivvv]

Looking for one for my twin mono, already have one 40.160 new version but need a matching esc, would consider a 40.160 (old) but know the prices are a lot higher...

What you got hidden away ?

You know I have a matching set you can have of the old school 40.160wk

Steve, if I hadn't sold that Exocet I would be biting your hand off right now. but shortly after that my fortunes changed - im now back at work and sold a private plate for a substantial sum all within a few days, ive tried to buy a twin cat but everything that's been offered is poorer workmanship for more money... I've been after a twin mono for a while and came across this beauty..

What's your 40.160 esc good for maybe I can buy that and you can buy the other set.

I don't really want to part with it, its been a great ESC and in this hull the 40.160 Old are a bit wasted, originally I was building a 120mph+ 1.5m cat this I will aim for 70-80 on 12-14s.

Why are the old version ESC's waisted? Can they pull more than the specified 160 amps and the newer versions can not?

[vvviivvv]

Yeah, the old one could handle lot more amps, this is why they are probably the best "SAW" esc's every made hence they carry a heft premium.

I think they have been known to pull 600 amps+ don't quote me on that,

Liam what are you willing to pay for a mint 40.160wk new style?

[vvviivvv]

Hoping to pay maybe $575 max.. ?

[RaceMechaniX]

Can you post a pic of the your existing one and I will if I have one that matches closely.

[vvviivvv]

Ill have to look - im now at the Mayer Werft yard taking delivery of a new cruise ship... freezing.

[vvviivvv]

have this pic

Liam I have a new unused 40.161WK with heavy gauge wires and extra caps. I would ask $650 plus shipping and I will offer to build up your other controller with similar caps and good wire and can flash identical firmware to try and make them identical. I will do the mods free of charge if you cover shipping.

Definitely interested... just my esc was coated in epoxy, will this be a issue?
