I have 2 of the black juststock's in my 1/12th and 17.5 Blinky TC and Love them and for my VTA I have an old version Mongoose and it is soo Sweet. More brakes than any other ESC I have ever used. smooth enough for the power i'm putting down and does not get hot. And wins races. so perfect all around. been using it for 3 years now with no issues. now my old GTB's whew gone thru many before switching to Hobbywing.
