GWS esc.. will this work??

I have a tamiya ta05 with a 14T quad wound motor. i was using a 3 cell lipo with my duratrax streak esc and it overloaded or something. it doesn't work at all....

it said that it could take up to 12 volts and 300A and the battery was 11.1V so i dont know.

so i was wondering if this esc would provide enough power. i'm not too good with the whole electricity thing.

this one is made for lipos. the only question is if it can give enough power.

thanks for any help.

No.

1.) its an airplane ESC.
2.) its rated for 30 amps continuous. it might be able to run a silver can, but nothing much faster.

Just save up a little more and buy a true car ESC.

Cheers!

3.) It looks like a brushless ESC.
