Title: Which speed controller?
Post by: 6705russell on January 11, 2010, 08:29:04 am

Hi all

I am looking for a 60a forward/reverse speed controller for a brushless motor, any idea on which one is the best buy? Looking on the internet is drawing a blank unless i am looking in the wrong place, they seem to be few and far between?

Thanks

Russ

if you want one that will give tou smooth running and you can set up as easy as you like, plus is reperable at a small cost go to http://www.castlecreations.com/products/hydra.html  we have tried the cheap ones and given up with them.

I've had quite a lot of stuff from R2 Hobbies and I wouldn't hesitate to buy more. I haven't tried their brushless esc's though so can't recommend them specifically.
