Jive 120hv + heat sink, what amps constant draw?

[super]

Hi,

Has anyone seen any documentation on what amps you can pull through a 120hv with a heat sink fitted?
I want to run a 800mx but don't want to stress the ESC.

Cheers,

John

No documentation but fact; a mate is using that esc with an 850MX on his Goblin 700 and beating the hell out of it Counted around 140 flights and no issues.

Ive heard many say 200amps but seen nothing on paper

Sweet. Thanks a lot. Good news!

It will be fine, that esc is more then capable of running a 4535 scorpion without issues.

Nice. Cheers guys.

Officially 120a but unofficially more than most other brand 160a, 180a and 200a ESC's

Do this motors still require ksa mode?

[acidla]

850MX don't need KSA mode.

Good to know thanks.

850MX don't need KSA mode.

800mx does require ksa mode, he isnt using an 850mx

Got an 800mx in my Faifa and am not using Ksa mode on the Helijive, seems to be working perfectly.......so far!!

Not sure really T, certainly been running with zero issues so far for me. What does yours do if you don't run KSA?
