    Cool 480 Amp ESC

    Just thought I’d share this great find on eBay. Only 4S - but look at the amp rating! And all for less than $16!

    actually i wouldn,t be surprised if thats around the cost of most expensive esc,s to produce , good profits from manufacturers. just think how much the asian quality electronic componants cost them. probably goes for brushless motors as well. cost $20 sell $200

    Truthfully it is possible it has a 400A peak rating, but it only last for .25 seconds when the ESC is stone cold.

    This looks like another case of inappropriate use of a data sheet. Look, if it looks to good to be true....... Don’t pass the smell test looking at it and it certainly won’t pass a smell test after it blows and stinks your boat up! Lol!

    Now with the entire New Rain engineering department called into play to iron out some minor heat issues, testing looks (almost) promising :
