Dual Way Bidirectional Brushed ESC

This is the 3rd ESC that I purchase from Amazon. I returned the first 2 and here is why: First - Readytosky 40A: I ordered this one because following the rule of thumb, it is always recommended to use an ESC with a lot more amperage than needed just to be safe. This one worked great in terms of mixing. Turning while stopped and in motion was great. Unfortunately after a few minutes it just quit. If I was lucky, after several hours it would work again just for a few minutes. Issue was not related to overheating because some times it would not work on the first try of the day. This ESC was cheap compared to others in the same range. I guess you get what you pay for. Second - Kingmodel 10AX2: This one was stable. Did not cutout or quit. However mixing was not good. After certain speed it just would not turn. This is kind of normal in this tank type vehicles but in this case, vehicle would have to be basically stopped for turning most of the time. Third - FPVKing 5A (this one): This ESC has good reviews as opposed to the others, however I did not go with this one since the beginning because I was not sure 5A would be enough, but so far it has been great! It is very stable, no disconnections or cutouts whatsoever. Mixing is great, it turns while stopped, low speed or high speed (a bit less which is normal). I tested a few batteries before reassembling the car and did not feel too much heat. The purpose of this ESC is to replace the old Radio Shack receiver and ESC combo. It was old and was not proportional which I don't like. I installed a Traxxas receiver and with this ESC it works like a charm. In the video I show how smooth the driving is at all speeds. I hope this information helps. I was trying to find detailed reviews after the first 2 ESCs failed and just found a few which definitely were decision points to try this third one.

Worked like a charm have been using it a a project that i was building for over 5 months now and still works like new

The radio tx on my son’s megalodon hot wheels rc car broke so I improvised and got this little guy and paired it with an off the shelf radio control. Works like a charm. The car works more like a tank so this ecs was perfect.

Working great till I added a bigger battery. Suddenly I had a blue light where I only had red and green before. I’m guessing Blue means blown. No longer any power coming out to motors. My fault

[Update] - while good, the rear motor on my rig continues to stall out so I kind of think the 5A is a little under powered. Mixing capability is fully functional with it, however. A+ on that. Easy to set up. No stall out for the dual N20 motors. This provides the sufficient amount of current with no problems at all. Fully 3s compatible.

Arrived with damage, one motor channel doesn't function. Also had tool marks on the connector and a big cut in the heat shrink, seems like this was probably a returned item they resold me. Buyer beware. I got some replacements and while these ones appear new, they're also a very different design from the last ones, and have a new set of problems. Both are totally miscalibrated and there are no instructions on how to calibrate them. So now I'm 3 for 3 on these being unusable.

Seems to be working great so far. One complaint though. This esc is set up for forward and reverse direction so its really not ment for a plane, probably better for a tank or something. To get it to work in my plane I had to only use one output and also reverse polarity in controller with limiting throttle switch control so it won't turn backwards. Bench testing seems to work, haven't finished this build yet. You can see in the video that it only turns on half way up the throttle stick, because this esc is not designed for a plane.

I don’t know where to start with this, it was among the easiest esc I have ever worked with the set up, when you got everything wired up it works so good, (I have built racing drones and rc hovercrafts and rc cars) and by far this was so simple to get up and running. If your wanting to build an rc tank or something else with independent steering and driving then I highly recommend this esc!
