Just built a crawler for a friend and put the 7 cell packs on it with the Rooster and 55T motor. I had the same setup but with 6 cell pakcs and I will for sure be upgrading to the 7 cell packs very soon. It is well worth it for a couple bucks more and had no problems.

I've been running the Rooster Crawler/55t combo on TCS's 6 and 7 cell split packs. Works great and I haven't any problems with mine.

It does say that 7 cells is the max for this ESC. The Tekin FXR can handle up to 9.

There's a little piece of paper included with the ESC, there aren't any 3rd and 4th profiles in the Crawler version. | |

Yes, the Rooster Crawler has Li-po cutoff. A few months back, Novak started putting a addendum in the package. The Rooster Crawler has 2 throttle profiles. Parameter Profile1 Profile 2 W/reverse yes yes % reverse 100 100 Drag Brake 90% 90% Li-Po cut-off Disabled Enabled 2 blinks of the red LED will enable Li-Po cut-off. |

| Cell Limit?
Documentation says 7 cell on the rooster. How many are running 8 without any problems? Any temp issues pushing it to 8? |

no temp issues on 7 that i could note. i was using my neighbors Promatch Matched (when new) 7cell made from ib3800s. got well over an hr of runtime, maybe closer to 1 1/2 maybe 1 3/4 time with the rooster/55t. the heatsink was barely even noticably warm.
