Default Astro Flight esc's

Hello all,

I'm about to put running gear into a very large aircraft carrier and I'd like some opinions on esc's. I have a 9'9" aircraft carrier, CV-6 Enterprise, and I am installing 4 speed 600 motors. Haven't decided yet if they'll be geared or direct drive yet. Power will be from a 12 volt battery. I'm going to pair the motors in series port and starboard and use 2 esc's on individual sticks so that I have independent contorl of the pairs for better handling.

I have a few different esc's but I'm not all that impressed with their slow speed control. I'd like an esc that will just let the props tick over and most don't seem to be able to do that. Does anyone have experience with the Astro Flight esc's? Are they able to slow way down?

Thanks
