I also bought some of them. I've tested them on a cordless screwdriver and they haven't blown up although they did cut out when reversing direction quickly because the battery voltage was dipping well below the cut off (only a 3.6v battery.)
yes jonny, i know it may seem hypocritical but, they should learn from others mistakes and get the right stuff from the start.
i doubt they are real amps though so im just running some drills with them.
btw jordon how long did they take to get to you?
they do a 320 amp version aswell :)Quote:

up that 10 to 20 and you probably have a closer value to what it could truely handle continuously
For some context the peak ratings (probably what these cheap ESC are on about) on the Electronize 15amp ESC is 270amps.
those speed controlers look fab but if the max volts is 7.2? would it be ok to run 7.2 on a 12volt motor? or do i over volt it?
you can run it at 7.2v but the motors will not be as quick, 12v will be quicker and overvolting will be quickest
