Yes it can, however that is one of the first major upgrades you might want to do.. I was so much happier once I ditched that ESC out in favor of the Novak Rooster Crawler edition.. Electronic brake is awsome!!! Lay off the throttle with the stock ESC and you wil still roll freely downgrade, with the rooster it will hold on most hills.. (extreme angles you might get a little slip, but not much...) With mine from full throttle to no throttle it will actually stand up on the nose and do a "stoppie""thumbsup"

Yes it can handle it. I agree, the stock esc is crap. That is one of the best upgrades i've made to mine.
