I've used various Hobbyking products and never had any serious problems with them. Very reliable and good value.

Cheers,

Are these be looked at as a cheap esc ??
Would a hobbywing, lrp, speed passion be a better buy ??
Also I have read that a novak esc gives problems. I have used a brushed esc in novak. And it worked well for me.
Does any one on hear use novak ??

I would be putting my money into a known brand. You won't see the Hobbyking stuff at the tracks or in UK shops so you won't get any support or advice.

ginge 14-03-2012 11:32 AM

What would yous think. Would be a good buy.??
Would you buy a combo ??

I wouldn't buy it, looks more an esc for the basher. If your racing competitive 10.5 touring, I would go for a Hobbywing Xtreme instead for around £60 if you are on a budget, then add a 10.5 motor of your choice.
Also there should be plenty of people around to help you with settings should you get lost. Not that I run one, but many people do and say it's the best for the money. Though if you can wait a bit Hobbywing should be releasing their new esc soon, but it sounds like a HW Xtreme will be fine for you for now.

Other user friendly options without raiding the piggy bank options are:

Speed Passion- Reventon
Hobbywing V2.1 60amp/120amp
Team Wave RB Series

Each under £100, so do some research, and see what you think.

Thanks for yours help.

Thanks again

Sorry. Meant HobbyWing. Easy mistake to make, given that several HobbyWing speedo's are obviously identical to HobbyKing / Turnigy. For instance, compare these two...

Anyone who knows electronics will also know that one is not a simple knock-off of the other. HobbyWing became popular because people bought them from HobbyKing and realised they were at least as good as the more expensive brand name ESC's.

Cheerz!
