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?

RE: Speed Control for Reedy 19T
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.
