POST copied form the TCS thread:

This is a good start, but still only a half step. I like the fact that only brake strength and drag brake is adjustable. There is no option for punch, drive frequency, etc.

ROAR really needs to come out with a electronic schematic that is distributed to all the ROAR Stock Spec licensees. Then each company will make the same exact ESC based on the licensed schematic. Then the only difference in models are price, size, and maybe color. Also all cases should be tamper-proof. (Sounds more and more like NASCAR ) (Prevent hackers from resoldering a small Tekin RS in a large Novak GTB case)

The Speed Passion above has screws. Ummmm. The best tamperproof ESC case is an epoxy box.

Anything else is going to create a "Stock Club Race ESC of the month". For example, LRP is not going to come out with a Stock Club Race ESC that is slower than the Speed Passion mentioned above.

Anyway, glad that we haven't run Stock 17.5 for 2 years now.

Time to make a new batch of popcorn watching guys burning up 2 to 3 17.5 motors per day trying to go faster at the track after hitting every board and then coming on RCTech and saying that STOCK is too fast. What they are really saying is that they want everyone else to go slower.
