The rest of my setup is
- savox servo 1256 @6v
And or 1267 @7.4v
-Spektrum sr2000 receiver w/ "glitch buster"

Is there better options? Is Orion as good or better for competitions? I don't do any crazy bashing and don't crash a lot compared to other so race with but my most recent tekin case has basically broken at all the screw hole bosses on the corners.

With that said the people at tekin have been VERY nice and helpful and I've only paid for 1 esc, the original one. I just can't see why I'm having such troubles. Any input will be helpful in either sticking it out with tekin or switching to Orion as those seem to be the best sensored esc's.

Thanks in advance.
