    Default seaking 180 or swordfish 200

    Which is a better esc? I've had good luck with the seakings but its a tight fit in my mg cause of where I have it and the wires go up instead of straight if they are just as good then id probably lean toward a swordfish thanks for your help

    I have both. Currently I have 1 seaking 180 and 3 swordfish 200s. Both are awesome to be honest. The 180 has it's lvc cutoff issue which is easily fixed by manually selecting the cell count and not relying on the auto calculate and sometimes the bec on them go out, but they maybe a little (very little) more reliable IMHO, but the swordfish with the usb interface is cool as hell. Both have there +/- I will say the swordfishes don't like ANY water at all and may need a extra cap or 2 and have a weird hiccup where the throttle lags from going from full to stop for like .000000000001 seconds. Not really noticable and No big deal. I like them a lot.
