Yes, really. Show me one documented case of a Jive starting a fire. I'm not talking about a failure that leaves the ESC "smelling" burnt but an actual fire that had to be extinguished.

Yep Kontronik for me, or YGE.
I was going to buy a Scorpion 130 but holding off now.

Yeah, I certainly hope ESCs catch up to motors and batteries soon. I cringe every time i plug my Castles in...
I have one of these Scorpions on my Goblin.. Here's hoping!

Yup, I have put my E helis away for the summer until some one can design an ESC that won't BBQ my heli when I plug in the batteries or use it as it was designed.

It was a Scorpion Commander V 130a OPTO  I am hoping these don't turn into major problems like with CC. I love the way they work in conjunction with the VBar gov, easiest GOV I have ever setup.

Kontronic, Scorpion, Hobbywing and CC?

I'm sure it's not CC.

Lets play name that speed controller...
A friend of mine caught up to me at a local fun fly yesturday. He wanted to bring me the results of his latest E7 flight. Can you guess what speed controller was involved?
