Well if you find a reg. or super rooster those will work well. Almost any normal esc with reverse will work for a tlt. Another one would be the Tekin Rebel 2.

And for waterproof. Associated has a couple i think. Or try looking for Mtroniks. They have many waterproof models.

Mtroniks makes waterproof controllers.

I think the best bang for the buck is the Tekin Rebel 2.

I would have to agree with Jason, the TR2 is cheap as far as esc's go. Plus they are a breeze to setup. I'm sure that if you look around on here you can find a way to come pretty close to waterproofing it.

I think the delay on the TR2 is adjustable between 0-4 seconds.

Yes they do. The 1/2 second delay is as close as you'll get to "instant". Other than that it IS your best bet for the money. Waterproof, hehe buy a boat

Just kiddin.
