Question redcat rs10

Ive got an rs10 crawler and while its done just about everything ive made it do I think my esc is going out.... While turning it does this retarded start stall start stall start stall like, a new driver learning to drive a standard trans.

Ive whoever is kind enough to not see that this a redcat cralwer and not be like eh and scroll past(i know redcats not really a favorite but I like em ) if ur not familiar with it, it runs off 2 motors both located on the axles they are a 380can I THINK and I wanna say they r 70t brushed motors.
So I need an esc that will push 2 motors like this and be able to run on a 2s lipo..

All help and advice is as always GREATLY appreciated

They r 390 cans and 70t. God I fail so hard it would help if I new what I had in my own car I guess!

My brother had the same kind of problem when he went 4WS. A BEC fixed him up. problem was that power was being spread to too many places. I don't know what all you are running but this may be something to look at.....

That can handle a 2s 5000mah lipo?
Do u know what motors it can handle?
Thank you.

I looked it up, it seems to be only 1 motor I need a dual motor esc.

It can handle 2s, the capacity is irreverent.

Handles 2 motors from 35-55 turns.

Any decent esc can handle 2s lipo, & run 2 motors. Do you want dig? Cuz if ya do, then you can use a single esc & an electronic dig, Or, a dual motor esc. But an fxr or sidewinder will do nicely for ya. Lets ya run 3s too, unlike the rooster. Not to mention, castle & tekins stuff seems to be superior to novak's. Especially these days.
