So the Castle PHX-HV85 & PHX-125 are the current tried and true tested ESC for the new 550. What about the Castle 80? do you think it would be ok for the sport flying not really pushing it?

I am using the HV-85. I had a the new smaller 125 but after a crash it took a poop on me. I heard someone asking about a 55-10-32, and even though this will probably work for someone learning, or just flying around, I know that It will Thermal on a 6s set up all day long, if you do hard flying with it.
I havent been able to test the jazz 80, but I think it would be a good choice. The castle stuff is nice because of the Castle Link, letting you find effeciency within the controller itself. So it is a nice choice.
I know the Hobby wing controllers are pretty darn good for the price. Actually nothing wrong with them at all. They are alot cheaper, and the feed back is quite positive on them. So this might be a good choice for someone on a budget.
