Default RE: Replacing an ESC

Was the esc properly rated for the motor in your plane? If you pulled to many amps through the esc, replacing it with the same amp rating will only result in another burnout. Check what esc your motor recommends. You will find this from the motor manufacturer. If the esc was part of a combo kit, its a good bet that the esc amp rating is ok, but you should still check to make sure. It would be disheartening to have another esc burn out because it was the wrong size.
