I think the MOD2 would be fine with the 5700. With that being said, I have only run STO1 due to pushing the limits for durability testing. I would just start with lower DMTS settings and work your way up, keeping an eye on temps and performance.

No need to go dropping so much on an ESC. I went from RS Pros across all my cars to the Reventon Pro 1.1 and I couldn't be happier. GREAT product at a superb price and SP fully make the effort support Apple iOS devices which is a Yooooj plus.
I go way back with Tekin more than 25 years to their first incarnation when they changed the whole game with their innovations (still have my 411P which was the first ESC to divert energy that was otherwise expelled/wasted under braking, back to the battery to help you make the full 4 minute main which was a struggle back then) but their products today are a bit overpriced for what you get, considering companies like SPeed Passion are producing competing products that are every bit as good at a fraction of the cost. Don't buy into the hype. Tekin is great, but I can attest to the Reventon Pro 1.1 being every bit as good and it's a COMPLETE system, programming box and all at no additional cost.
At some point SP is going to have to start paying me out of guilt. LOL

I've been using SP speed controls and motors for around 6+ years. Off and on I would put a Tekin speed control in my car. speed Passion was always so much smoother. I have people amazed how smooth my e-buggy is running sensorless. I never plan to use another brand.

I haven't run SCT for almost a year now so I'm not sure what the status is on our ESC's and 4pole motors. Before using Speed Passion and eventually joining the team, I ran a 4pole 550 with a Tekin RX8. I feel that these 4pole motors are really overkill for SCT trucks. Even with a SCTE, there wasn't any obstacle that my 2pole 550 couldn't handle.
In my honest opinion, and not reflecting of others, I think 4pole motors are power sucking, heat generating, torque monsters that burn up batteries and tires. Those additional expenses to me are not worth it.

Jason I have to agree.. The RX8 is just too too much. Ill stick with ours any day. Howard did say they are working on something to replace the Silver Arrow but it will still be a 4 cell ESC for 4 pole motors. So If the RVPro 1.1 runs it.... with no issues.... I am down!!!!

Hey guys, I'm racing a Reventon Pro 1.1 with a BLAZE 5700. In my TLR SCTE-TEN 2.0. At the same tracks as J Pietsch races at. I had Tekin RX8 with HD 4600. I like the Speed Passion ESC/motor better. Much smoother throttle with the Speed Passion. I'm running the modify 2 in my Reventon Pro 1.1
