It supports a range of brushed motors from 130 to 380 size and runs on 2S LiPo or 4-7 cell NiMH\/NiCd packs. With a continuous 10A rating and no brake function, it's a lightweight, no-frills option for basic RC builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat This ESC Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis speed controller provides two functions: forward and reverse. There is no brake – when you center the throttle, the motor coasts freely. It accepts a standard PPM signal from your receiver and drives the motor using a 2KHz PWM frequency. The BEC output is 5V at 1A, enough to power a small receiver and a couple of servos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecs at a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContinuous Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax Current (20A for \u0026lt;30s)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePulse Current (30A for \u0026lt;5s)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBEC Output\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5V \/ 1A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Signal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePPM (PWM 2KHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2S LiPo, 4-7 cell NiMH\/NiCd\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotor Support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e130\/180\/260\/280\/380 Brushed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.91 x 0.83 x 0.24 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.32 ounces (ESC only)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhich Motors Work With It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ESC is compatible with commonly used brushed motors: 130, 180, 260, 280, and 380 sizes. These are found in many small RC cars, boats, and planes. If you're building a lightweight project or replacing a broken controller, this unit fits the bill. Check the current draw of your motor – anything under 10A continuous is fine. For brief bursts, the ESC can handle up to 20A for 30 seconds and 30A for 5 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes this ESC have a brake?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The controller only offers forward and reverse. There is no brake function, so the motor will stop by friction or you must manually reverse to slow down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat batteries can I use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can use a 2S LiPo (7.4V) or a 4 to 7 cell NiMH or NiCd pack (4.8V to 8.4V). Do not use 3S LiPo or higher – the voltage will damage the ESC.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the ESC waterproof?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe supplied information does not specify waterproofing. Treat it as not waterproof unless stated otherwise. Keep it dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the box?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou get one 10A ESC with wires pre-soldered. No connectors or instruction sheet are included in the package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho Should Use This\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ESC is ideal for hobbyists who need a simple, lightweight speed controller for a small RC car or boat with a brushed motor. Because it lacks a brake, it suits applications where coasting is fine – like boats or cars on low-traction surfaces. If you need braking, look for an ESC with brake function.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hobbypower","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58074609385775,"sku":null,"price":23.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/4478\/7503\/files\/hobbypower-10a-brushed-motor-speed-controller-for-rc-carboat-no-brake-1.jpg?v=1781459982","url":"https:\/\/toysforkid.co.uk\/products\/hobbypower-10a-brushed-motor-speed-controller-for-rc-car-boat-no-brake","provider":"Toys For Kid","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
