Choosing the right ESCs

Hi all,

I recently got a BlackWidow 260 quad from HobbyKing, and need to replace the ESCs
I assumed Emax 20amps where the ones I needed. Well, they arrived today and I found they are way to big physically to even fit on the arms, twice as thick as I need. Amazon often only shows images, so the exact size is not clear, don't want to order the wrong thing again :(

The motors are 2204-2300kv Brushless, operating with 3cell packs.
If anyone can advise what ESCs I need for this, preferably under 40Euro,
I'm only a hobbyist so I don't need top-line stuff yet.

Advice or links to products would be great!
thanks

Yeah, I know. I just had to decide if I wanted to spend twice as much just to get the _S part of BLHeli_S. I probably wouldn't even be able to tell the difference, but like my Dad always tells me "Son, you've got more money than brains" hahaha

Hey guys, thanks for the suggestions.

@ringolong - those ESCs you linked that cost only USD14 - cost 22Euro each in Germany. Which is about USD24
I would just order from the States, I ordered my drone through the american HobbyKing, because it was so much cheaper.
but after paying for postage and import taxes it came to about the same price.

@Jackson, I couldn't find the "Little Devils" locally, but I did find "Little Bee" 20A on Amazon, for about 60euro per set
It's over my budget, but after looking around, it appears 40 euros is too small a budget.
