Default Leopard ESC...any good?

I saw a "Leopard" ESC with no limit for a good price. I was wondering if anyone has heard of this brand and if its any good? Its red in colour, has a yellow sticker that says "Leopard" and also "Nova" on it.

Do you guys recommend any ESC's for a 12-14T motor?

Thanks

Default NOVA

I got the same exact ESC from some place called HIQ off of ebay, put it on my RC with a 11 turn motor. It started to melt, not sure why, I only had a 1700 MAH battery, my car was fast as hell, but for some reason there wa san over load on the esc. I am leaning towards the motor and the ESC not really being able to handle the low turn motor

Either a Duratrax 8t pro esc for like 75-85 dollars or a Duratrax 12t forward/reverse esc for 65.

Default RE: Leopard ESC...any good?

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but I got a Nova Leopard ESC as well from a gjuy named Hi_iq, and installed with a 17T motor and 6-cell 3300 a day after I recieved it in the mail, 5 minutes into backyard driving the ESC went kaputz!! Wonder what would happen if I used the 10x3 motor on it... It's the no motor limit ESC, the unit powers on with a solid red light and doesn't respond, I paid $100 Canadian for this and the guy won't respond to my emails and I can't find info on the company. Any suggestions?
