Default Speed Passion ESC?

I was wondering what the recomended ESC's are for 1/10 4wd offroad and 1/10 offroad 2wd are?

I currently have an 8.5 in my B44 and a 10.5 in my B4.

The 8.5 motor is a speed passion and I'm happy with the results. Now I'm looking at their ESCs.

I already have Novak GTB's and an RS pro just looking to try something different.

+1 on the GT 2.0 but for 8.5 and more I would highly suggest the "Pro" GT 2.0

ive had good luck running just the lpf 2.0 with motors down to 6.5 in my shuey cat

but wanted to play with 4.5 and 5.5 so i stepped up to a pro

2.0 is fine for 8.5 10.5

The 2.1 is sweet for a 2wd. The heatsink is a little lower so it fits under the body a little better, yet supposedly runs a little cooler than the 2.0 LPF. All work great though. 2.0 Pro for 4wd as mentioned is recommended.

Making all of the adjustments (other than the software updates) with the little programming box (no netbook or laptop) is priceless.

Get the optional LCD box and they have both stock and modified versions of dynamic timing software that works quite well.

P.S. Don't get the new 2.1 EX, that puppy is mostly for 1 cell pan cars.

I use the 2.1 with a V3 8.5 no problem. Fast and cool.
