Anyone care to enlighten me? I know the difference in price is about 45 quid, but not the difference in spec.

I'm looking for an ESC with a beefy BEC and the ability to run both a 17.5 and a 10.5 motor on it. I dont want to spend the earth on one, but I dont want to buy something thats going to flake out in 3 months either.

Any help appreciated guys

Basically the LPF is a 60A model and has a milder motor limit. It depends on the class you are racing in, if you are racing off-road with no boost then it should cope with those motors, if you are racing on-road with boost then the 10.5 might be close to the limit.

You also get a few different accessories, the LPF has no fan as far as I know and might come with different capacitors and wiring.

I'd go for the full-fat GT Pro if you can afford it, just for peace of mind, it will happily cope with anything.
