Thank you. Only the 2nd time running it.Damn man that really sucks! And welcome to the forum!
thank you. After reading up on the R snake ESC apparently it’s quite commonWell that looks unpleasant. welcome the the forum, sorry about the circumstance.
Am running a 1100kv 2028 Castle motor I didn’t think they were compatible. But will look at my options . Thanks man.Ya that sucks I've never even heard of that brand esc but obviously doesn't seem very reliable. I'd suggest a max5 for next one as they are a great esc and don't see much complaints or fires at all.
I would think it should be fine just may have to change the bullets on the motor leads to fit the max5. But definitely would check the specs for Amperage on the 2028 and the max5 to make sure they are compatible.Am running a 1100kv 2028 Castle motor I didn’t think they were compatible.

He actually has a 16S/500A model too. It’s sold by R-Mamba on eBay, who is the guy who sells a lot of TP motors.12s ?
Yes 12s12s ?
Correct, he seems a nice guy very helpful and going to reimburse with a new ESC but I’ll still need to replace a two week old Lipo and battery tray. From the reviews quite a few of them burn up. So Will be a bit hesitant to install….He actually has a 16S/500A model too. It’s sold by R-Mamba on eBay, who is the guy who sells a lot of TP motors.
I have the xlx2 I brought the combo with the 11kv motor but I run the xlx2 in another 1/5 Kraton I have with a hobby wing 1100kv Moto that I use for bashing.Or a Castle MMX8S.Adds a few more options if you want to progress
Yes he’s been very nice and helpful to me as well. I have bought a few TP motors thru him.Yes 12s

I wanted to build a 12s for speed runs hence 3-16s R snake ESC and castle 1100kv motor 39t one to one gearing. Back to the drawing board I guess but I’m happy for any suggestions
They also need a fire extinguisherGo with a ztw
Will or will not hold up to bashing?I would strongly suggest getting your replacement esc, sell it & go with a 8s set up (HW or a Castle)… From my experience none of the 12s set ups (ztw, flier, rsnake, alien, etc) will reliability hold up to bashing for any length of time.
They are great for ripping up & down a pasture but that’s about it IMHO anyway.
Damn autocorrect. Hopefully my post makes sense nowWill or will not hold up to bashing?
Dumb question. Do all the esc's from this company come with the heat shrink covering the whole unit? That seems like a recipe for disaster as the heat has no where to disipate. The fan cools the fins of the heat sink and blows it outwards to the sides of the esc. This would just trap heat over the unit. Just my untrained eye making an observation.
The rsnakes & aliens are rebranded fliers… They make a 300a “car” esc that isn’t heat shrink wrapped but i believe that’s itDumb question.
