[NSRCA-discussion] Brio 10

[Jay Marshall]

An update. According to Castle Creations, when the ESC shuts down on an over
current condition, it only shuts down the motor, not the BEC. Of course it
still remains that I had a massive unknown failure where the ICs floated off
of the PC board which would negate any "normal" shutdown.

Michael,
 
That was my thought as well. The Hyperion motor I am using pulls 30 amps
with a 10x5E, and about 35 amps with a 11x5.5E.  The 10x5 is adequate for
pattern work.

What it sounds like to me is the Phoenix 25's are being used outside of
spec. Following threads on RCGroups most of these setups for the brio are
pulling in the high 20's to high 30 amp range. I believe most would be
better off with a 35 or 40 amp speed controller.
