Default GP Reactor Bipe power setup question?

Recently bought a Great Planes Reactor Bipe and trying to obtain my power setup as funds allow. I have a Great Planes Rimfire motor # 35-36-1200 But I am a little confused on the ESC spec'd out by Great Planes. They are calling for a SS-35 ESC which is only 35 amps but the motrs Max. Surge current is 55 amps and the Max. Constant current is 45 amps which is well above the 35 amp rated ESC. Is this correct? If so what motor spec's do you take in consideration when specing out a ESC?

Thanks in Advance
