Per SP info for turn to kV rating, the shortcourse is between a 9.5 and a 10.5. That's more than enough power for a shortcourse truck. I raced my Slash with a SP 13.5 AND that was more than the tires/track could handle!
Be sure to power what ever BL you get with a 3200 and up lipo, without lipo power you won't know how much power you have! Really!!!!

Ok thanks for that i have never run sensorless but for the price compared to a Novak Havoc system and the optional USB tuning interface it looks like a good system.
Now it's not stated but does this ESC have LIPO cutoff???? the S/P web site says it supports 2s/3s lipo's but is vague on lipo cutoff..

The new low-profile esc looks pretty sweet!
But what are the differences between the programming box that comes with the esc and the LCD box? The LCD box looks quite cool though
Thanks!

The LCD box has the USB interface to perform the S/W updates to your ESC.
other than that it works the same as the stock box

i ran my exige 2.0 esc with m chassis motor(3300kv) last night in my sc10 and im very amazed on how the truck was with that motor only thing is my motor was getting to around 165 degrees and i know needs to come down or is that a good temp all the time and how high should i worry about temps on theses motors. and does it matter how long i run it it should stay the same ? i have the 75 spur/23 pinion. if i go lower on pinion should cool it off ? thnx in advance Will G

i just went out in my front yard and ran around on and off the throttle dirt and street and ran 16 mins exaclty and only ran 145degree. i ran it pretty hard but i think that did it thnx to all normally you would only run what 6-7 heats and a 10-15 mins main im guessing.
