FLX18-3S20 Features:
Waterproof Brushless Crawler ESC
Operating Voltage: 2-3S LiPo

Power Connector: XT-30
BEC Output: 6V/1.5A
Dimensions: 28x18x13mm
Weight: 13.5g

ESC parameters are adjustable using the Hobbywing LED Program Card (available separately):
- Voltage Cut-Off
- Motor Direction
- Drag Brake Force
(Braking power when throttle is at neutral position. Higher drag brake means stronger hold on hills.)
- Drag Brake Rate
(Controls the response of the drag brake. The higher setting the faster the drag brake is applied. A lower value may help the vehicle stop more steadily.)

NOTE: Before driving in wet conditions, make sure that all electronics fitted to the vehicle are safe to use (marked as water-resistant or waterproof), or that they are fully enclosed and protected from water and moisture (such as in a sealed receiver/battery case). Lubricate exposed metal drivetrain parts such as bearings, outdrives and diff shafts before driving in wet conditions. Motors are not intended for submerged use and may be damaged if used when under water. After driving in wet conditions, make sure to rinse off dirt and any corrosive liquids like saltwater with plain water and re-lubricate metal drivetrain parts.
