I think where this gets out of hand is when people start comparing the ESC to a turbo or supercharger. That's like comparing N20 to a turbo. Different applications.
Personally, the ESC isn't for me.. and it probably isn't for most people who went turbo. But I will concede that it is making some real power, unlike the "leaf blowers" that you see on eBay. As for Fast_Freddy, really simple.. just don't but it. The info is all out their and the company is legit, so need to bash on it relentlessly. I haven't seen many people claiming that the ESC is superior to a turbo or supercharger. They are just saying it is another option for those that don't even know what they are looking for, as is N20 or Methanol.

So once again, as always, you can't substantiate any of your grossly exaggerated, zealous fanboy claims so you retaliate with false accusations, insults and name calling. Bravo! Daemano, Bravo! |

Please don't confuse me questioning zealous, exagerating fanboys with bashing the object of their zealous devotion. The Phantom ESC is a pretty cool product and compared to previous attempts, it works phenomenally well. My only issue with it are some of the grossly exaggerated claims made by a handful of it's fans. That's all. I won't be buying one but see no reason why others should not. I just hope that they buy it for what is is and what it can do and not for what zealots like Daemano claim it can do. |

Some good points. I do want to clarify something here though. The ESC will provide boost not in short bursts, but instead as long as the battery has enough juice to do it. Note that my longest WOT pull has been about 25 seconds. I let off the gas NOT because the ESC ran out of battery, but because I ran out of road and was going WAY TOO fast at that point. With my current setup (TQ250v 1.5x w/ AUX charger) I have yet to run out of battery to perform WOT pulls in any circumstance and that's after repeated WOT pulls.

I think this little excerpt from page 1 of the Full Throttle ESC thread sums it up pretty well: "The idea of this project is to give the FRS or BRZ a nice increase of torque and power on demand. This is by no means meant to compete with full time FI applications but should provide that nice little bump in power that most people want." |
