This ESC is rated at 30 amps continuous, it will depend on the loading on the motor as these motors can be power hungry.

Instead of getting a dozen and a half different answers from the forum, why don't you ring up Electronise themselves and ask them........

they are very approachable, and you would get the definitre answer to your question.

Here are the performance figures for the motor:

High-revving SPEED 700 class electric motor with internal cooling fan.

Specification
Nominal voltage 9,6 V
Operating voltage range 7,2 ... 9,6 V
No-load rpm 19000 min–1
No-load current drain 3,3 A
Current drain at max. efficiency 17,5 A
Current drain when stalled 90 A
Max. efficiency without gearbox 69 %
Length of case, excl. shaft 66 mm

So it could exceed the 30 amps.

As said before . If in doubt fuse it out. Better a fuse than an Esc. Does seem your one would be overloaded. Best to use one for each motor. John.
