Like many I've been having issues with my ESC over heating and cutting down power. Before it cost me a crash, i'm looking to upgrade my ESC. Has anyone used the BP 50A Helicopter Brushless ESC? Do you guys think it's too heavy at 39.3 g / 1.38 oz? It a bit of over kill but the price is not bad.

Should i go ahead and go for a 35A to be safe or the 30A should be ok?
Also, is there a difference between Heli ESC and the others?

Thanks again

Thanks for the help guys... One last question. Is there a difference between a heli ESC and a regular ESC?

Thanks again
