The VTX10 is rated to 5.5 turns, the VTX10R is unlimited. I would run the VTX10R for a 550 motor.

This is close to correct. The specifications state that the VTX10 has a motor limit of 540/6.5t. The VTX10R has a specification of 550/ no limit. The 10R is the esc that would fit your power requirements. Trying to use a VTX10 with a 550 might void the warranty
