questions about motor amps

[ncpantherfan71]

I am looking at a few cheap brushed esc with lipo lvd for a few of my vintage and re release runners.

My question is how many amps should the esc rated to handle with the hpi 15 turn brushed motor? That's the hottest motor I will probably ever run.

Also, I am looking for a couple rounded case lipo batteries, can anyone recommend a us source for low cost batts?

Thanks

The Hobbywing Quicrun 1060 ESC is rated to handle down to 12 turn motors on 2S LiPo, so it should handle your HPI 15 turn motors just fine..

I also use HobbyKing 4200mAh LiPo's in my cars that require round packs, but they can be a tight fit in some models..
