Products marked "Not Suggested for New Designs" are scheduled to be superceded by Hargrave Technologies.  These products will remain in production indefinitely for customers with existing applications.

Peak power ratings defined at 100% throttle, where bus current = phase current. Requires proper sizing of motor to load. 

(*) Continuous amps defined as amperage sustainable for 180 seconds with adequate cooling to keep ESC at or below 115C

(**) Burst amps defined as amperage sustainable without damage to controller for a period of 5 (five) seconds.  Burst should not be encountered again until ESC has returned to normal temperature

(***) Weight refers solely to the circuit board and enclosure, if any.  Weight measured without any wires or connectors.

Specifications subject to change without notice.
