Re: smash em up
For some context the peak ratings (probably what these cheap ESC are on about) on the Electronize 15amp ESC is 270amps.

Re: smash em up
you can run it at 7.2v but the motors will not be as quick, 12v will be quicker and overvolting will be quickest

No they're crap. Don't waste your money on them. Save up and buy a decent controller
