I think with a real esc, I'd be in even better shape. I was clearing things at the track this morning that I wasn't making last week, I know that much.

The power is what I would call "instantaneous". I ran for a good 2 full battery packs, or about 20-25mins and temped at 165 on the motor, and around 125 on the esc. I'm happy with the motor.
i got to run my 4600 tonight in my newly converted SCTE. ran 12/40. after the 7 minute main, it was at 161. ambient temp was probably 80. more speed than i needed. totally happy with the setup at this point.
