Doesn't work for cheap chinese mosfets, the data on the IC tends to be whatever they feel like reporting and marking. Some are even recycled and sold as new. Ask me how I know.

I have several ESC of one famous brand. When I was flying in the spring, water got into the ESC and it burned down. I opened the ESC and took off all the mosfets with a hair dryer. I bought other mosfets on aliexpress, which were more powerful in terms of characteristics. ESC has become less heated with the new mosfets.I do not recommend buying cheap yellow Chinese ESC: there is no name on all mosfets.I disassemble the new ESC and cover the board with 2 layers of Plastik-71 protective varnish.
