ESC recomendation

[Bill Diedrich]

Thinking of putting a Leopard 4092 930 Kv/rpm per volt 3Y in an 1/8th scale unlimited running it on
8 cell ( 29.6v) Lipo batteries, what is the approximate amperage ESC I will need to be on the safe side
of not burning on up OSE states this to be a 2600 watt motor with a burst of 4200 watts. This will be in
a Dumas Atlas Van Lines kit that will be modified and lightened up quite a bit. Not a competition boat
just a fun running at the local lake boat.

Looking forward to any and all suggestions...….Thanks

I always recommend 300 amps, to be safe; although you can go down to 200-240 amp controllers if you're careful with prop selection. 300 should give you some wiggle room.

The OP hasn’t been back to the forum for almost two months, so....
