Well, i just fried my stock esc, just by plugging the batt in. POOF. so, i can only say that the stock wk electronics in general are a small step above boat ankers. go moped all the way, cheap, and decent.

I have run the Novak XRS in every rc I ever had (until I could afford upgrades) I have never had one quit. I ran my wk with a 19 turn motor for a while, It got hotter than I was comfortable with but I left it in and it never quit. Imo its a great esc. The only reason I dont run them now is the low bec.

How many volts? Moped is a big POS in my experience. I'd say Mamba Max or Novak Crawler esc.
