The E-flite® 40A Pro switch-mode BEC brushless ESC is a high-quality, innovative and efficient sensorless brushless electronic speed control with an integrated switch-mode BEC. It can operate without the need for a separate receiver battery to power your servos and receivers, saving you weight and complication. It is capable of up to 40 amps continuous current when using 3- to 6-series Li-Po battery packs. You can drive up to 7 analog or 6 digital standard-size servos with the BEC on any recommended input voltage. This ESC also features an exposed, finned heat sink aluminum case with lightweight plastic end-caps. Additional features include safe power-arming along with advanced programmable features such as low-voltage cutoff, braking, timing, throttle input range and more, making this truly a ‘pro series’ speed control.


40A BL ESC: Opterra Features:
  • Up to 40-amp continuous current with proper air flow, with 55-amp burst current (15 seconds)
  • 5-volt switch-mode BEC circuit capable of 2.5-amp continuous current on any recommended input voltage
  • Drive up to 7 analog or 6 digital standard-size servos with the BEC on any recommended input voltage
  • 3–6S Li-Po, 9- to 18-cell Ni-Cd/Ni-MH input voltage
  • Finned heat sinks
  • Programmable motor braking
  • Safe power-arm mode prevents accidental starts
  • Programmable low-voltage cut-off with settings for 3S Li-Po (9V), 4-cell Li-Po (12V), 5-cell Li-Po (15V), 6-cell Li-Po (18V) or 70% of battery starting voltage
  • Programmable soft start for helis and airplanes
  • Auto motor shutdown if signal is lost or there is interference
  • Programmable timing—5 user-selectable ranges for use with a large variety of brushless motors
  • Programmable throttle input range (1.1–1.9 ms or 1.2–1.8 ms)
  • Heli mode for starting the motor with a low speed ratio
  • Utilizes new smaller MOSFET technology to save weight
  • Radio system power on/off switch
  • Pre-wired connectors—E-flite® EC3™ connector on battery input and 3.5mm female gold bullets on motor output leads
