If you like Tekin what about 411P?

Best vintage ESC is a Novak Cyclone. They are bomb proof .

Much older ESC will be prone to melt down even if it states down to 13t & under due to moisture which is in atmosphere & erodes the circuit boards & MosFets over the yrs. I store all my good vintage ESC in air tight bags with silica jel packs to absorb any moisture.

I was kinda scoping old tekin esc's on ebay last night and i saw a few of those 411p esc but noone has and info on em really so they would be good to how many turn? Cause i also have a 11x2 peak motor that i love that might go in it at some point i saw on ebay a tekin rebal and a tekin commander esc's but cant really find and info on motor limits ad such.... Are they a decent speed controll?

Any of the Tekin 411g series ESC's will fit the bill. They're super over engineered and have a nice solder pop fuse in case something goes wrong. You can pick them up pretty cheaply too. One of these would work really well too: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TEKIN-G-11-PRO-EDITION-NO-LIMIT-MOTOR-BATTERY-/251180384835?pt=US_Character_Radio_Control_Toys&hash=item3a7b848243 or this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tekin-G-9-Speed-Control-/180823693149?pt=US_Character_Radio_Control_Toys&hash=item2a19ee975d Hope that helps.
