I run a tp power 4070cm 2200kv, hobbywing max5 esc, killmode 13,200uf cap pack, Robinson racing 20t hardened pinion.

I don’t need the data logging so i used the hobbywing max5 instead of castle xlx esc.
 
Check out this thread for useful cap pack info:

I run the yeah racing twin fan.


I am curious. The Max5 has a maximum cont current rating of 200A while the TP has a cont current draw of up to 264A. If the motor draws more current than what the Esc can supply, wouldnt that result in ESC failure? Just wondering how you guys keep the ESC alive

I would like to know this as well.
 
Motor maximum is Up-to 264A. You may see that if overgeared, overweight, over voltage. I do get a thermal on the max 5 esc at the end of a full out park-lot speed run of 20min solid in 80-100F summer heat.

Max5 = 200A/1300A (cont/peak)

Xlx = 264A I believe - it is adjustable. I have not run one and data logged to see though (cont/peak). I am sure someone knows.
