yep most now come with like a 1/2 second delay and above to help control driveline damage........for crawling you need to be able to get from forward to reverse as quick as possible to save roll overs and quick maneuvers

Mtroniks did make a full blown monster truck esc for clods. Dual motors and everything. Don't remember the name of it. Being in England, I think I can get one but it will be expensive, like £120. That's almost $200 to you guys who don't know anything about exchange rates.

For $4 I'd recommend this one here... It has no motor limit, whereas the one you are looking at is only good down to 15T.

you can read about it here

Looking for a good, waterproof, no pause reverse ESC?

The only other difference being that the RVMAX you have to solder the wires on yourself, it does come with them, they just aren't attached. Makes them easy to change out if you happen to accidentally cut a wire or something.


for only an extra $4, the RVMAX is worth it... If you ever decide to put it into something else.

Yes it is forward brake and reverse...

A slip of paper, comes with the ESC and all the wires are colour coded showing you where to solder them.

If you aren't comfortable with soldering, stick with the first one you picked, wouldn't want you to wreck your new ESC
