Cian's Receipe for Toasted ES-01 Speed controllers

This is a little something I cooked up over the weekend.

Ingredients:
---------------

1. Airtronics/Sanwa ES-01 ESC
2. Airtronics 27mhz receiver
3. one mini-x chassis
4. a 7.2 brick cell battery, fully charged. (mine I bought from Blind Batteries.com)
5. One mini-x motor in a BB can with strong Neo Magnets

Method:
----------

Connect the ingredients as per manufacturer's instructions.
Switch radio on. Switch Car on. Remove battery once ESC golden brown or room fills with smoke and smell of burning circuit boards....

Guess I'll have to try a Bigger ESC...

edit: Basically , in english, I tried to use a Sanwa ES-01 Speed controller with a Fullly charged brick battery and it FRIED... I'm gonna use the Futaba MC230CR, and direct solder everything (but the battery) together...
