Tekin RS Gen2 Sensored Brushless ESC/Motor Combo (8.5T)
Bought this to go in a 22-4. I always buy strictly tekin for my esc and motors. This ESC will constantly thermal and shutoff after 4-5 minutes of run time, since then i have switched to a rsx and the tekin 8.5 with flawless results. The moral of the story is this is a great esc for stock racing but just cannot put up with the demands of running anything past a 10.5t.

Tekin RS Gen2 Sensored Brushless ESC/Motor Combo (8.5T)
I recently bought the esc/motor combo and it has performed faultlessly. I have the Hotwire as well and it really allows you to tune every aspect of the ESC and also download team driver setups and load them straight into the ESC so easily. This is by far the best ESC I have ever owned. I have also bought the RX8 Gen 2 as well now and both Tekin's have been faultless. Only downside is the 8.5t motor limit.
