Hey, so I got a used Redcat Earthquake 8E off Ebay for about $100.
The truck is missing the ESC, so I will need to replace it!
My dilemma is can I just use any 80 Amp ESC for this model of RC truck?
If I look on Redcat Racing.com its $ 160 for a new one, but if I just Google I can find some for $50.

$ 50 Ezrun Splash Proof - Hobbywing ESC – HOBBYWING North America.

I just feel like if I am going to spend $ 160 why not just upgrade the ESC & Motor with some of the “Castle Mamba” stuff!
