Special ESC
Hello All,
Iam building a custom 1/5 scale aluminum truggy that will be using a Neu 2217/2215 low-kv motor on a 10s LiPo system.
The nature of these motors necessitates an ESC to be able to handle 150-200 AMPS.
Does anyone know of such an ESC that has REVERSIBLE control? Idon't want to have such a powerful truggy with only forward motion.
My research indicates thus far that Jive, CC, MGM, and Schulze can't handle that many amps while having a reversible option.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!

RE: Special ESC
Hi, plane-addict, and thanks for your input.
While the ESC you mentioned can certainly handle the high amperage, it will not handle the overall voltage as I'm using a 10s system.
Did you have any other ideas?

RE: Special ESC
Sorry, I don't know of any other esc's that can handle 10S packs....
You could try Hobbyking customer support and ask if they know about something: http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s..._contactUs.asp
When they are open, there will be a button available to contact them. Are you US based? If so, then you have to try sometime later afternoon or evening maybe.
Good luck and keep us updated, we can learn from this...
