Default Speed Control for Reedy 19T

I put a reedy 19turn quad dyno motor in my car and blew the Duratrax Intellispeed speed control which was supposed to handle 18+ turn motors. It was fun for about 30 seconds until I realized I had no reverse, and then it just stopped responding and I'm sure it blew up.

Any suggestions on a reliable speed control that I should invest in?

The Reedy quad 19 is super torquey, probably the highest torque 19t, but that super torque comes with really high amp draw. It probably draws amps like a 15 turn or so at low rpm. Especially if you have it overgeared. Then again, they don't turn any rpm, so you would really have to try to overgear it. Get a good esc and have fun.
