Thank you for purchasing THUNDER POWER’s Electronic Speed Controller (ESC).

Features:



Great innovation of

Lithium Battery Balance Discharge Monitoring and Protection Design

, which provides real time monitoring

of the discharge voltage of each lithium (Li-ion/Li-poly) cell in a battery pack. Never worry about over discharge problem again; your

lithium battery pack could have a much longer life.

(Important Note: This function is ONLY available for Thunder Power Smart

Guide / LiPo Saver Series ESC)



Extreme low output resistance, super current endurance.



Full protection features: Low-voltage cutoff protection, over-heat protection, and throttle signal loss protection.



3 startup modes: Normal, Soft, or Very-Soft, can be used for both fixed-wing aircraft and helicopter models.



Throttle range can be configured, fully compatible with all market available transmitters.



Smooth and accurate speed control, excellent throttle linearity.



Microprocessor uses separate

voltage regulator IC, with good anti-jamming capability.



Supported highest motor speed: 210000 RPM (2 poles), 70000 RPM (6 poles), 35000 RPM (12 poles).



Our pocket-sized

eZ Programmer

card can be purchased separately for extremely easy programming of the ESC in the field.
