|  What kind of ESC for stock Clod Buster?
Hi there! I am new to this forum and I have a question regarding my stock Clod Buster. I got my Buster about 15 years ago and now I have been thinking of bringing it back to life. I remember that it had some kind of problem then and that it needed a new ESC. Can you please tell me what kind and from where I can get a new ESC. It is all stock so I really don't want or need a super ESC. I just want a really cheap ESC so that I can drive it. Thanks for your help!

Well, I killed a few of them with lower voltage settings than they recommend, so in my opinion, they are a waste of money...

Sidewinder all the way really the best bang for the buck performance and features wise. Althrough any esc with a 13 turn limit would work ok with the stock motors.
