RE: caldera 10e esc
there is a 80a ezrun esc (used in the 8e's and the shredder models as well as the XTE's)
It can handle 4s lipo. The stock fan works on 3 or 4s.
The 60a fan I would think should be fine on 3s....but I dont know that for a fact. But you would think a 60a esc would be given a fan that could handle 3s.

The redcat's all have the 35amp ezrun ESC. 10 amps may not sound like a big difference but it is.
25amp ESC's are meant for 1/18 scale cars and trucks....not a 1/10 scale like the caldera. Its no wonder it cought fire!
A 100amp ESC is alittle overkill, but that never hurts! The ezrun 60 or 80 amp systems are good for the caldera. A traxxas VXL system would also work well (and be waterproof) Or also the novatech 70amp system will work (used to come in the epx pro models)

RE: caldera 10e esc
got the truck used for testing instead of messing my good one up it had the old plugs on it and changed it over to bannaha to match my other batterys. will give more info on the hk100a and 3s some time this week.
