I am just getting into crawling and have a PTI Goliath. The ESC I have has no braking and a delay in reverse that drives me nuts.

I need an inexpensive alternative for now....eventually I will upgrade to brushless, but that will be a while.

What are some of you using? and how much are they?

Tekin FX-R is under $95 new.
u can find them used for dirt cheap.

Novak Goat Crawler more exp i think.

Novak Rooster under 100 new i think.

Heard Castle has some nice one but i dunno them.

I know about those....but I cant afford to put $100 into it....

I guess I need to keep an eye on the classifieds for someone who has upgraded to brushless.
