Hi,
Looking for a decent but inexpensive 120a esc for a 4wd buggy. Will consider anything!
Thanks!

That's a good deal but it's a bit steep for me at the moment! Thanks anyway, appreciate the offer!

If you are on a tight budget £40 gets you a brand new Hobbywing 10bl120 esc from Modelsport

Thanks. Are they any good do you know? I've been out of the hobby for about 10years so have very little up to date info! The last esc I had was a speed passion gt.

If you don't want to run boost and turbo then they're a brilliant esc only £38 at mb models and £7 for the program box

OK cool thanks! Will have a look at them! All your suggestions have been much appreciated!
Oh how do they compare to the skyrc Toro 120a? seen some good deals on those from China recently.

A number of people run the cheapo £12 hobbywing clones and flash them with the hobbywing firmware. Buy 3 and still cheaper than modelsport :thumbsup:

I've seen that mentioned in other places too! How do you flash them? Also would they be good enough for 7.5t 4wd buggy?

They do have boost, just no turbo. :)
