Is the consensus that the Phoenix Ice HV 160 is the best speed controller out there for RC builds? I've read a few people talking about burning them up under acceleration. The idea of toasting the second most expensive component in the system so easily scares me a great deal. I know there is all sort of talk about slipper clutches and the like but is that required? Say I'm using a 80-100 type motor that's geared pretty low but without a clutch and I've got a good heat sink on the speed controller, is it good enough? Should I expect it to burn up on me? Is there a better option in the end? Thanks!
