Pre-Order

The Castle Creations Cobra 5 ESC Combo With 2028-1100KV Motor (P-CC010-0179-02) pairs the all-new COBRA 5 8S ESC with a sensored 2028-1100KV motor for high-performance large-scale RC setups. Engineered for precision, durability and power-handling, it introduces enhanced tuning and data tools for a more predictable, drivetrain-friendly driving experience across 1/7th and 1/5th scale applications.

Building on the COBRA 10 and COBRA 8 platform, the COBRA 5 adds adjustable braking curves and independent reverse settings to reduce stress on gears, shafts and differentials while delivering smoother transitions. Enhanced data logging doubles the sampling rate of previous generations, extends logging time, and adds looping so valuable information isn’t lost. New data points, including ESC electrical motor timing and acceleration from the onboard accelerometer, help identify tyre slip and fine-tune efficiency. Hardware upgrades include improved current sensing and thermal protection, a rugged CNC aluminium case potted in waterproof epoxy, a premium forged heatsink with elliptical fins, and an oversized thermally controlled 50mm fan—all within the same footprint as the Mamba XLX2.

Overview
Building on the success of the COBRA 10 and COBRA 8, we are excited to announce the release of the all-new COBRA 5, engineered for 1/7th and 1/5th scale high-performance RC applications! The COBRA 5 is designed to deliver precision, durability, and unmatched power-handling capabilities.

New tuning parameters include adjustable braking curves and independent reverse settings to reduce the risk of broken gears, snapped driveshafts, and blown differentials, all while experiencing smoother transitions. Users will feel a more realistic and predictable driving experience while saving their drivetrain from unnecessary stress.

Whether tweaking the suspension or altering tire pressure, data-driven decisions lead to optimal performance in an R/C vehicle, and the COBRA SERIES enhanced data logging includes double the maximum sample frequency of older generations, providing more granular data for analyzing performance. Gone are the days of clearing data logs-users will experience increased logging time and enjoy the new looping feature that prevents interruptions in recording. New data points for ESC electrical motor timing and acceleration via the onboard accelerometer provide insight into needed adjustments to detect tire slippage or fine-tune motor efficiency.

The COBRA 5 is packed with a potent combination of hardware and software advancements, making it an indispensable ally in high-performance power systems. Users will benefit from the same footprint as its predecessor, the Mamba XLX2, while an upgraded current-sensing and thermal protection system actively mitigates the risk of failure in aggressive or high-load setups. The COBRA 5 is available to purchase as an ESC-only option or packaged with three Castle 4-POLE 12-SLOT motor options to overpower a wide range of 1/7th and 1/5th scale vehicles
