| ESC questions
I found this esc on ebay and it was cheap and was wondering if it could handle a 3s or 2s lipo with a lipo alarm with it. Thanks. RC VSC 320A Brushed Speed Control ESC for 1 8 1 10 Car Truck Rock Crawler Boat | eBay |

Looks like the LVC is set to 5 volts, waaaaaaayyyyyy too low for a 2S LiPO (which should be 6.4+ volts for 2S). Does not say it can be adjusted. Also does not say if it's "instant reverse". For $12, you can try it, but you may be disappointed for use in a crawler. Oh, and add a few $$ to replace the Tamiya connectors shown in the picture.

Yeah, I would like to know about the tamiya connectors also. I use the Dean's just because it is what my charger came with and I wanted my sons and my trucks to be the same. But is there really a good difference between any of the connectors? Amp ratings? Loss of voltage? Etc.?

Traxxas or XT60 are better, most here use Deans, I use Anderson PowerPoles/Sermos. | ||
