00:00If you've ever drowned your crawler in a creek and watched the smoke roll out of your speed control, this
00:04video is for you.
00:06I've spent the last few weeks digging through the best waterproof brushed ESCs for RC crawlers,
00:11the ones that actually survive mud, snow, and river crossings, and I found 5 that punch way above their price
00:16tag.
00:17Let's get into it.
00:19Starting off with the Isido Waterproof 68 ESC, the WP1060 RTR clone, and honestly this thing is the budget king.
00:27It's a 60-amp brushed unit with a 5-volt 2-amp BC, and it'll happily run any standard 540
00:33or 550 brushed motor in a 10th-scale rig.
00:36The best part?
00:38It's $13.
00:41Thirteen.
00:42That's less than a tank of gas, and nearly 5,000 people have bought one with a perfect 5-star
00:47rating.
00:48If you're building a beater crawler or you just need a spare in the pit box, grab two.
00:54Next up is the Ison 2X WP1060 RTR, and what stands out here is the 2-3-cell lipo support
01:00paired with solid, chunky wiring and pre-installed connectors.
01:04It's plug-and-play with Tamiya, Traxxas, Redcat, and HPI platforms, so there's no soldering headache on a Sunday afternoon.
01:11It sits at $29, which is the priciest on this list, but you're getting a fully finished package with a
01:174.8 rating from almost 4,800 buyers.
01:20If you want it running out of the box with zero fuss, this is your guy.
01:25Now the one a lot of you have been waiting for, the Hobbywing QuickRun 1060.
01:30This is the original, the ESC that basically set the standard for waterproof brushed crawling.
01:36The killer feature is the Switch Mode BC, which runs way cooler and delivers cleaner power to your steering servo
01:42under load.
01:44It's 2272, a 4.9 rating, and 4,500 sold.
01:49If you're tired of gambling on clones and you just want something that works every single time, pay the extra
01:54few bucks for the real Hobbywing.
01:56Then there's the 9IM OD60 E-Brushed ESC, and this one's got a genuine IP65 waterproof rating, not just we
02:03sprayed some glue on it, waterproofing.
02:06Full ceiling, 5V 2A BC, 2-3 cell capable, and it handles 540 and 550 motors without breaking a sweat.
02:15$17.33, perfect 5-star rating.
02:18This is the sweet spot for me, it's cheap enough that you won't cry if it dies, but built well
02:23enough that it probably won't.
02:25And rounding out the list, the Hobbywing QuickRun WP1060 RTR with the upgraded 6V 3A BC.
02:32That extra amperage matters more than you think, because if you're running a big Metal Gear steering servo, a weak
02:38BC will brown out and leave you stuck on the rocks.
02:42This one won't.
02:44$24.67, 5-star rating, and it's the version I'd put in my main crawler.
02:49Best all-around choice on this list if you've upgraded your servo.
