Here is the motor in question:

If I remember right, the motor is rated for 80ish amps on 14S. Now, I'd like to put this motor into my upcoming 6S rover and I need an esc. My usual online stores are out of stock of any esc that I think would be suitable. The esc needs to include a reverse feature. What do you guys think? Can you help me out?

I think the search is over. I began thinking about Castle esc's so I checked out their website and found a Mamba Monster 2 1:8 scale esc that is good for 2-6S. It's not sensored, but thats ok. It's a bit more than I wanted to pay but Castle is quality. As an added bonus, this esc is programmable via the Castle Link software, which I already have on my laptop. Cool!!!

Damn Derek Bigfoot for a motor. Mamba monster for an esc all for your rover. I swear I saw this beast on one of those shows like Exposition unknown or believe it or not This new project you have going on seem and looks to cool. Good luck and get some pics going when it starts coming together

Yeah, the Tacon motor has a larger diameter than a pop can and that esc should handle the motor quite well. I plan on running the motor on four 6S batteries at first. I'll post more details when I get started. I have a few other projects to get finished first, lol
