Not if you are using 6 volts:
Speed Control
Operating Voltage: 7.2v-9.6v
Maximum Pulse Current: Forward
Maximum Continuous Current: Forward
Int. Resistance Ohms: 0.008x2
Weight: 50g
Forward and Reverse
Neutral & Full Power Adjustment
Battery Elimination Circuitry
Built-In Pulse Checker
And I certainly do not believe the current rating, if nothing else it would burn out the supplied cables and where would you get a battery able to supply such power!!!!

Quite true Bob, appreciate the info.

You already have a suitable ESC. If you're using a Hitec Rx that has BEC fitted internally (that $%^& BEC stuff again...) then P79 will be fine, as the voltage put out by the receiver should be regulated @ 5v even though you may have 7v+ going into it from the 5-cell pack when it's fully charged. If you're going to use the 2.4 Gigglehurts Rx and run it from the 5-cell pack then just plug a P99 in-line regulator between the Rx and the P79. Gotta be cheaper than buying a new 'un, innit?

Read it slowly..............and twice!
Read it three times boss...took your gospel as word, and whipped the P79 out of the Dragonfish and installed it in Enterprise.
I'm not into this BEC stuff, installed a separate battery pack for the radio...even cheaper, 'ennit chav? Oh, and it's the GiganticFish radio n' all.
With a bit of luck, a bottle of stout and a following wind, Enterprise will be on the lake for proper testing one day this week.
Many thanks everybody for all the advice...and many thanks to His Masterfullness for the gospel. (the gospel according to FLJ...)
