Orion Vortex - opinions?

[burgie]

Does anybody have any experience of these ESC's? Looking at getting the 100amp version?

Are they comparable to the Novak's or LRP's performance wise or is there ar big difference in performance?

Got one of them myself. For £40 you can't argue. It doesn't have a fan as standard, but I had one the right size anyway. Setup via flashing lights is a bit confusing but doable. Certainly seems to work fine - mines running 7.5 and with the fan never gets warm.

As for quality, well its made by Hobbywing, basically its a rebadged Xerun, sames as the cheaper Speed Passions.
