Hello

Yes they did recommend certain products, one being the hobbyking esc ..... http://www.hobbyking.co.uk/hobbyking...nsorless_.html
i will not be racing in nationals or any championships so i dont want to pay a stupid amount of money for top of the range when i can get one for say £30/£40
Motor wise, i was running a stock motor from 10 years ago (weather or not a stock motor 10 years ago is the same as a stock motor now, i don't know)
As long as the speed controller can accept different motors then that is all i'm really bothered about, i wanted to start a little slower before i jump into the faster motors, i remember running a 12.5T motor years ago and that was fast, so that's as fast as i would want to go in the near future, perhaps a little quicker.
With regards to esc, the one mentioned above is a 120A, but i cannot see any info on motor limits and what i can go down to.
So am i right in saying that i can buy any lipo batteries for the esc and it will run perfectly fine?
Sorry for all the questions, i am a little green on the electric side of things
I just dont want to buy all different products and find that they are not compatible with each other.

But like you also said when i have got to grips with what esc i need and motor i want, then i can imagine it will be plane sailing.

cheers for the help guys

Tony
