There are 3 different v12.
V12 i don't know what is the limit
V12 WE has limit 7t
V12 XC has no limit for motors

I have V12 and was using 9x2 motor and everything was ok. Now i have 10x2 krypton and a didn't see any problems.

I think thas v12 and v12we is the same ESC.

Ive had an XC version for a little over a year of hard racing abuse and it has never missed a beat. The brakes are good, acceleration as great, and the throttle band is extremely smooth.
Its a little weird to program until you get the hang of it, but you dont need to mess with that until you start searching for those precious .10's of a second.

Be sure to install the capacitor. It helps smooth out any power spikes, which saves your investment and smooths the throttle.

it already has the capacitor on it, all i needed to do is solder the battery wires which i did, now i need to put on the connectors which i havent got around to buy....
