for the money you cant beat a hobbywing QUIC-RUN 150 amp for its reliability and ease of adjustments. for 85 bucks your not gonna find a more debendable esc, and as far as motors, tacons have never failed me, thier 2000kv 4074 in particular cuz there only 55 bucks. Some of thier newest ones like the max 8 rival any other systems ive ever tried. In the past of smokes castle, tekin,and reedy stuff . the only other esc I praise higher than hobbywing are MGM, but they are very pricey.
