RE: ESC Choice
Hi,
If a 40A ESC is recommended, then a 45A would be HIGHLY recommended[8D], as an ESC should always be chosen to provide a bit of headroom as to it's capacity, the only penalty in using an ESC that is much larger than needed is weight considerations, in your scenario that is not a problem
Like many things in life "bigger is better" within reason
ESCs definitly are in that category, too small an ESC is a recipe for creating "smoke"
When I was a kid we spent a lot of time on Kings Cove off Lake Hopatcong, right across from Bertrands Island, long time ago though, Essex County native here
Regards,
Pete

RE: ESC Choice
Hey Pete! Thanks for the info. I assumed it would be okay, but you know what happens when you do that.... It's funny you mention Bertrand Island; we just moved to Landing 2 months ago and just took a drive this weekend and discovered... Bertrand Island. It's all built up now with small homes and condos. Thanks again, Pat
