RE: Futaba MC 9100A ESC
I just checked the specs for the OS controller at Tower Hobbies and the specs listed say it a lower peak amp than the OS instructions list.
Tower Hobbies
SPECS: Cell Handling Capability: 14-36 NiCd/NiMH, 4-12 LiPo
Function: Forward-Stop-Brake-Reverse
Peak Load Current: 70A (85A 5 seconds)
PWM Frequency: 32kHz
Protective Function: Start protection/Low Voltage/ No Signal cut-off/
Overheat protection

Probably specs for a different controller.
It also says it has 'reverse' capability, not sure why we would need that for airplanes, but it would be spectacular on final approach.. ;-) Probably a carry over from another controllers specs.
