Fantastic esc - I use 2 of them and can't fault them. The motors are also really good

Did you get one of these Kev? Looking for an upgrade for my hobbyking xcar

Is this the £30 or the £50 one? I have two Hk escs and they're very good. One is the £30 trackstar turbo and is more than enough with a 6.5 in my 4wd. The other is the £25 hobbywing rebadged v2.1 and that's also very good. I have the Sky rc 120a and that's the same as the hobbyking one for about £50 and that's a really good esc with lots of features and the Bluetooth app thing.

I've just ordered the £30 one. Has boost and turbo settings. Worth a try at that price!

What settings are people running when using in a 4wd ? Interms of boost etc...

Yeah the £30 one is pretty good value, using it today with hobbyking 6.5 I don't think I had anything boosted up and was more than enough. I think it was running factory settings

I ran two of this last year. In both 2wd and 4wd. They are good for the money, personally I felt they where better suited for 4wd than 2wd. This is primarily down to the throttle slope.
I also fond the motor would get very hot and the turbo slope was very aggressive. However you can turn this off and run boost.

You will need the program card to set it up . Also check on HK under files for the calibration feature and the light input setting on set up.

I'm running the £30 one in both 2wd and 4wd. Certainly competitive enough. Will try and post my settings tomorrow. Can easily run my 4wd for 10 min indoors with a 6.5 and its not exactly slow.
