    I'll get the 200A and hopefully I don't blow it .
    Not in the mood for working on that boat right now, it needs alot.

    What boat were you running it in that you went from a 120a ESC to a 200a HV? That's a really drastic difference.
    Light travels faster than sound, so people may appear to be bright until you hear them speak.

    3600Kv * 11.1v = 39960 RPMs

    I was running a turnigy 3S 4000mah 40C battery on a 3600KV supervee prop.
    the battery radio and motor I know all were functioning properly.
    the ESC did not heat up too much, that wasn't the problem.

    9 to date in 2 yrs and 2 have failed. I love them. One, no idea what happen.. just started doin a studder thing.. resoldered everything still did it. The other, totally my fault. 6s on a 180, factory bec.. popped it and next run the esc itself died. Can't blame escs for user error.

    The $20 esc deal is a good deal but, in general you are going backwards from Turnigy to SS esc's.

    Fightercat Racing has an excellent esc for $54, 140 amp, small and tough as nails!!!

    it's on the way
    the setup in this boat has been changed to the FC 2000kv outrunner on 5S. i'm gonna start with a 40 mm prop because I was using SS 200's and they weren't stone cold, i was running a 42.

    Well, then, thats a different story since the SS or Suppo esc you have coming was designed to run with outrunners.

    Just make sure you set the timing to at least 22 degrees to 30 degrees to keep it cool.

    If you fo to an inrunner, other esc's are a little better designed..
