probably more like half a second.

unless its running mosfets that are already capable of 50% more than the escs rated current, in which case, they'd most likely rate the esc for 50% more

at the end of the day, it really doesn't matter!

500amp "burst" claimed from a 100amp esc means nothing.

its like when they rate those crappy PC speakers as 2000watts pmpo, the number means nothing whatsoever!

Xerun 80A ESC really with very good quality, you can try it.

Hi to all the fellas with the Hobbyking 100A ESC. I'm looking at getting one of these for my HPI Efirestorm. I currently have the EZrun 5.5T 6000KV motor with 60A ESC and 2S lipo. The thing flies but the ESC and motor are heating up. I have smaller pinion on order to address the hot motor.

Am I right in saying that the HK 100A ESC would better suit this set up?

Thanks.

I would probably try the smaller pinion first and then see how everything runs temp wise.

I also own a Hobbyking 100A esc and an 80A version of that esc sold by another brand. I don't think that you would run into much issue running the 100A esc with the ez run 6000Kv motor. I run the 80A version on a 3000Kv L sized motor and the 100A on a 2800Kv XL sized motor (both on 2s at the moment). They both stay cool temp wise.
