i like hobbyking too

but i am under no illusions that there ESC are not rebadged Hobbywing they are "copies" as such thats why they are cheap i want to try one myself soon so i am not knocking them . but i am realistic about what i am getting for my money

lipos are fantastic value for club racing (the debate about BRCA approval is covered elsewhere ) its just a shame currently there not

Fair comment Fidspeed on the esc's.
Can you shed any more light on it?
Electronics are just electronics to me, if it works - then job done

Check out the range of new servos - here is the 10th scale steering one - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...g_0_07sec.html

£24.....

re: the hobbyking esc's, I actually believe a local racer has flashed it with hobbywing software....

I use a similar one to that. Silky smooth and reasonably powerful! Nice.
