I can't be bothered doing anymore window shopping for the day so just putting the call out to anyone who can recommend an esc?

Ideally, it will cost less than $100. Reverse would be nice. Gotta go down to 15turn motors too (or less would be best).

I've only ever know LRP, GM and novak escs so hoping someone might be able suggest a different brand if it's cheaper....

Go to eBay and look for the Futaba MC330CR.

You can get the ones without the Futaba brand name on them, which are EXACTLY the same as the Futaba one, but they only cost 50 bucks or so. I had one of these on my TB-02, and they are tiny and work great!

I think they do down to 14 turns too.
