Question on the Rating of the 130S ESC?

[3vw]

Hi Guy's

Anyone know the rating on the 130S ESC?

When I check the parts list it only says
"Dual Brushless ESC Apache AH-64"
Which tells me nothing.

I cant get information on the 130S or Apache ESCs either.
I do know the Apache is 2S while the 130S is 3S. I just used an Apache ESC on my Trex 150 but the motors are different KVs than the Apache.

I don't think the 130 S ESC is the same as the Apache. I'm considering using a 12 amp ESC/BEC with the main motor and a smaller 6 amp ESC for the tail motor in lieu of paying the higher price for a dual motor ESC. This is for either the 130S or the Trex 150 DFC. Don't ask for information on the 130S reciever as they will not give this out either. Tail motor mixing is done in the receiver and not in the radio.

I am going with the seperate ESCs stated above and trying a Spartan RC Vortex Pico flybarless system and forgeting the Spektrum/Blade or Align/Futaba receivers that can't be modified. Changing the trex 150 ESC is a pain and has to be desoldered and resoldered to the receiver.

The Apache ESC on the Trex 150 works, but the tail is twitchy and lowering the gain didn't help. I believe the Trex 150 ESC is 9 amps and it hasn't blown the Apache ESC.

I hope this helps.
