Can a Firma 160 handle a Castle 1717?

[dure16]

I already have a Firma 160 I’ll be putting into a 1/8 KEXB.

Can that ESC handle a Castle 1717 1650kv?

For casual bashing and jumping.

Yes the Firma 160a is basically a Max6 and the 1717 is equivalent to the Hobbywing 4985 1650kv.

Yes, it’ll handle the 1717 well, especially for bashing and flipping.
