Default ESC to go with Castle 3800kv 4-pole?
My Sidewinder blew up but I really want to race on Thursday. What would be agood ESC to pair with this motor? Would any ESC that is able to run a sensorless motor work?

Why did your Sidewinder blow up ?

What car are you using it in and geared for what speed ?

MMP will do the job fine

Cheers

The motor crapped out. I got a replacement from Castle, and while I was trying to calibrate it to my radio it made a gnarly SCCCRREEEEEECCCHHHH and POOOOF!!!

I'm going to call them today as I know they have great customer service, I just want some other options for when I run around to all my LHS looking for something to run tomorrow.

Has anyone ran this motor with a Tekin RS?
