Micro X stout enough for a Twin?

[Turtlejon]

I’m considering putting a castle micro x and state 2850 in my twin hammers. I’m wondering if it will overheat on long runs in the hot weather. I do a bit of everything, fast hill climbs, some jumps, a bit of crawling, trails in between all the rocks, etc. I will run the lowest gear ratio possible, to keep control, and a bec to minimize current through the esc.
Y’all think it’ll be enough? Or move up to a mamba x?

If you were only crawling with it in low gear it would likely be fine. But if you plan on high gear heavy throttle finger action in hot ambient temps I bet you find the esc runs very hot, likely into thermal protection.

The only thing to not like about the mamba x is the price. Otherwise it is perfect for your application.

Well, after a fair bit of use with the micro, I finally had a thermal shutdown. It was after a few minutes of uphill climbing, foff style, sorta, trying to throttle up over some roots, with some dirt and leaves....
So, onward to regular mamba X!!
