the difference - hobbywing gives you the solder posts and this toro one don't
remember back in the day of brushed motors and Tamiya's Voltac speedo??? that was a 100% re-branded KO speedo - but completely done in Tamiya blue and Tamiya stickering
so it happens a lot

Is there any source that proofes that it is a Hobbywing?
The size is very different and the Toro doesnt have the alloy case.
Even if its made by HW which is very possible its obvious not the same speedo.

I have this esc and run it with a novak 4.5t 550. Seems fine. Has the ability to adjust throttle and brake curves via PC.

I'd say it's a safe bet both the Toro and the Turnigy are made by Hobbywing, as Hobbywing make gear for a few other brands, it would likely be damn near the same internals, with a cheaper spec plastic case, software looks less tarted up, but functions are the same in every way.
A week or so back, I had a strong urge to buy the Toro, only problem is the almost pointless nature of blinky modes on brands/models that may never get submitted to ROAR for approval, making one of the biggest selling points of an ESC that will do Mod/Boost stock/Blinky all in one is negated by it not being legal in blinky.

I run the toro sc120 with a 4000kv 550 in my scte and the only thing i would want more would be the ability to run sensored. I got mine as a combo with a 4600kv for $103 shipped from japan to my door. it comes with a programming card but usb/pc programming would be nice too.
All told i'm very happy with the combo. just wish i had gotten it with the 4000kv instead of the 4600kv, since we've moved indoors to a virgin clay track that is smaller then the outdoor track which has closed, I had problems keeping the motor cooler. It was running at 150-160 after 6 min. the 4000kv comes of at 130-135 after 6 min.
