Has anyone tried a Sequre 200A or 100A 8s esc in an edf? Curious if they perform well.

They will be fine to use in EDFs. I have heard of the 100A being used on a hotliner (fast powered glider, usually powered by inrunner motor and planetary gearbox) Been using the 70A in the Magnus and Xray we carry with no issues. Keep in mind that you do need the PC interface tool to program them.
Jaron has had very good results with his high speed models turning similar RPMs with these ESCs.
Airflow on any ESC is important, but when you are using one of these high performance ESC that pack a lot of power into a smaller package, airflow should be given a high priority. As an example the Sequre 200amp is physically smaller than a Hobbywing 120amp, and the Sequre can handle a shit ton more watts thanks to is far higher voltage rating. I only mention this as we sometimes see people pack ESCs into really horrible places with no cooling air.

Thanks for the replies. I ordered the usb link from Aliexpress because Aloft was out of stock. What software should I use to adjust the esc settings?

The Sequre ESC-Link - USB Programmer page on our site has a link to the interface, but I'll put it here: CLICK HERE

I downloaded BLHeli 32 suite. The esc has the 3 pins for the servo connector labeled as G,S,TX. Is TX an output and does it get connected to the center pin on the usb link that has no label?
How do I calibrate the throttle without a flight controller? Once I have the motor hooked up to the esc can I just calibrate it like a normal esc, by putting the throttle stick at full throttle and powering up the esc, waiting for beeps and then closing the throttle?

Yes, you can calibrate these just like that. The TX pin is for telemetry. I have not played with that yet, but it's supposed to give you voltage and amps I believe.
