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?

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.

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.

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!

Kontronik can fail but will not catch fire. Only Kontronik and YGE provide the necessary over current protection to prevent a fire.

Yep Kontronik for me, or YGE.

I was going to buy a Scorpion 130 but holding off now.

I have a BEAUTIFUL Synergy E7 hanging on the wall of my workshop. I love everthing about it and the synergy brand.....however....I am debating what to do since my castle cremated itself. I also wonder if I should wait until ESC technology catches up. I got really lucky this time to get the fire out, but i might not be so lucky next time. If matt had an N9c out Id opt for that for sure and make the one I have an E6.

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.
