Raydee, you should be okay. If you want to make it more bulletproof you can just glue aluminum/copper plates to the opposite (exposed) Bus bars and attach them to the stock aluminum heatsink. L shape here.
I did that + 2 tubes on each side of it and I pulled about 420 amps from them and I’m going to test out some higher pitch SAW props and expect amps to go a good bit higher on my hpr99 twin cat

Yeah I figured. I originally started looking at the Castle air controllers back when I heard the EDF guys were pulling 400+ amps from them. Knock on wood the ones I am using have been great.Originally posted by jim82 View Post420 spikes not continuous. Im spiking nearly 200 on a 100 with a 2860 5050kv on 2s

Spikes or not, i think it’s safe to say not many cheap China controllers would handle anything close
Oh and don’t forget attaching extra caps as close to pcb as possible, if you plan to exceed amp limits. I have about 5000uf of ZL 470uf rubycons on each without pony tail leads (I removed the stock caps). Placed (4) of those in the front
