esc question

[2mcgrath]

guys i was wondering.is there any difference between a brushless esc for airplanes and heli's?or is it the same that is used in cars and trucks?and if so what is different about it?thanks

Normally the difference is a car or truck ESC will either have reverse and/or braking. Since an airplane has to do neither of these there is no need for the ESC to do those function. What you would find is if you put an airplane ESC in a car/truck is you won't be able to stop it without hitting something or letting it slow itself down.
