A couple years ago I bought a scorpion XXL when it was first released for a featherweight project that failed to materialize. I want to use it in a featherweight now, but I can't find the specs (mainly the continuous and peak current draw) anywhere. I don't want to accidentally blow a perfectly good (and fairly expensive) speed controller. I think the current limit per channel for the XXL v1 is 15A continuous/30A peak, but I'm not sure.
Also, since the XXL v1 does not come with compatibility with a pre-made hard case, I need to make my own mount. I'm new to featherweights, and secure mounting for speed controls seems to be a more nuanced affair than electrical taping a fingertech esc to the baseplate of an antweight! I'm thinking of making a polycarbonate hard case for the XXL and isolating the esc from shock using rubber grommets.
