Its enhanced data logging capabilities offer extended recording times, faster sampling rates, and a wealth of data points, enabling users to delve deeper into their vehicle's performance than ever before.
Crafted with a CNC aluminium bottom case, the Cobra 8 is engineered to endure the most rigorous conditions, ensuring reliability in every race or off-road adventure.
One of its defining features is our acclaimed CRYO-DRIVE technology, engineered to reduce operational temperatures, significantly prolonging the ESC's lifespan. Moreover, equipped with an impressive 8-amp BEC, the Cobra 8 can effortlessly power the most demanding servos, making it an indispensable ally in your high-performance setup.
The Cobra 8 has been packaged with three different Castle 4 -POLE 12-SLOT motor options to overpower a wide range of 1:8th scale vehicles. This combo includes a Castle 1515-2200Kv Sensored Motor. The 1515-2200KV combo is incredible in monster trucks with up to 6S LiPo packs (4S LiPo is the sweet spot), and works great in1:8 scale buggies, truggies and on-road vehicles as well as 1:10 scale monstertrucks weighing up to 6.8kg (15 lbs).

Castle's newest software technology, CRYO-DRIVE minimizes the amount of time the ESC's electrical components spend generating heat by optimally controlling which components are being used while driving the motor. This is happening thousands of times per second, which greatly reduces the rate at which the ESC heats up. This results in significantly improved thermal performance during partial throttle operation where the majority of driving occurs. Your setup will be able to handle higher gear ratios, in heavier vehicles, with longer runs.
When paired with a Castle 4-POLE 12-SLOT SENSORED MOTOR SmartSense software, enabled by default in the Castle Link Programming Suite, will use the motor's sensors to provide smooth starts, excellent torque, and low-speed drivability. Once the motor is turning, it seamlessly transitions to Castle's ULTRA-EFFICIENT sensorless mode with electric timing. Smooth sensored startups and high-efficiency sensorless running makes the COBRA 8 system produce more power and less heat. QUIETSENSE is an innovative advancement in the design of sensored motors to deliver the highest precision and most efficient startup.
The COBRA 8 allows "on-the-fly" adjustments to be made through the AUX wire once enabled in Castle Link. Once you have selected an AUX wire function, that setting can then be tuned from your transmitter while driving. Torque control, max throttle, max brake and drag brake adjustments are a sampling of the available modes. This real-time tuning allows you to quickly and easily fine-tune your system.
The COBRA 8 contains NEW DATA LOGGING FEATURES:
- Double the maximum sample frequency of older generations.
- 8x increased logging time of older generations.
- Data point for ESC electrical motor timing.
- Data point for acceleration via onboard accelerometer.
- Looping feature prevents interruptions in data log recording.
For over 25 years Castle engineers have been setting the bar for industry leading software functionality. The Castle Link Programming Suite is your ticket to creating the perfect setup. To gain access to the host of tuning parameters download the BRAND NEW simple to install software from the Castle Creations website and you are ready to personalize your controller's settings. Requires Windows 10 or higher.
The COBRA 8 is housed in a rugged CNC-machined aluminium case and then potted in waterproof epoxy. This not only protects the electronics but ensures any heat generated in the controller can easily be dissipated through the case.
COBRA 8 features Audible Alerts that will notify you, via audible chimes, of possible issues with calibrations and error conditions to help diagnose problems.
