I run the RX8 with a Novak Ballistic 4.5t and a Savox 1258. The only time my fan turns on is when I first power up the ESC. That baby is one cool running ESC for this truck. I had a MMP before with the same motor and servo. I had brown out issues even with a Cap installed. I decided to go the RX8 route and found one used on here for $145. Most used ones are in the $160 to $180 range. For what I paid, it would have been the same price as a MMP and an external Castle BEC, which is a must with the savox servos.
