This list has been attentively written;
however, there is no guarantee that your
ESC will match the specifications in this list.
Many boards change PCBs regularly
(particularly many higher current boards).
Always check your ESCs before flashing!

Note: HK-SS18A, HK-SS20A, and maybe other sizes kill themselves (P-FET gate noise) when ran at higher PWM speeds - avoid
