I just found an interesting article on using power caps in RC.

http://www.rczone.net/modules.php?na...wcontent&id=22

Says it will help minimize heat generated by the ESC by reducing the "voltage ripple". Anyway, having said (takumi) that the S03 heats up the stock ESC pretty quickly, do you think a power cap will reduce the heat buildup enough to be runnable? Anyone here try this?

takumi, were you running that novak 4700uf power cap when you tried out the S03?
