Tekin RS Gen3 Sensored Brushless ESC/Gen4 Spec R Motor Combo (17.5T)
Updated 6 months later - still loving this ESC and added a #2.

Works great so far, touring car on a medium sized track.
Tekin has been around for over 30 years and customer support is top notch.

Even though I race blinky, I chose the RS combo over the RS SPEC for TWO reasons: (I own an RS and a SPEC)

#1 - The RS esc supports sensorless mode as well, so if you have it set to run in hybrid mode and lose your sensor wire mid race, you aren't dead like with the rs SPEC ESC.(it happened to me)

#2 - The SPEC esc only has a 6v BEC. I'm replacing my SPEC esc with another RS for my 2nd car because I need the higher 7.4v output for my fan to spin fast enough to keep my motor cooler.

Go with the RS!
