  • Equipped with the most advanced and safe electronic switches. The traditional mechanical switch protects and prevent dust, humid and other harsh environments, contact rust, and violent impact (such as flying slope landing) caused by the automatic closure of mechanical switches and other issues.
  • Support the 32 degree turbo timing setting. When used with the matching motor (such as EZRUN 4278SD), the maximum rpm can be increased by about 25%, easily win your rival. • Multiple protection functions: battery low voltage protection, ESC and motor overheat protection, signal loss protection, current protection.
  • Support LED program card, LCD G2 program box, OTA programmer (Note: optional) to set the parameters of the ESC.
  • Real-time data logging to view various running data on the HW LINK app using the OTA Bluetooth module.
  • Support the firmware upgrade of the ESC (The multi-function LCD G2 program box or OTA Programmer is needed to purchase), you can enjoy the latest functions.

The 2250kv system will run 4s or 6s depending on the application. It has XT90 plugs on it.

Rich @ Wheelspin Models
Can I fit this in an ftx zorro.
Ian Fox / 15th April 2024

No, this is for a 1/8th scale car.  you can look at something like this for the Zorro  HW38020344

 

Si @ Wheelspin Models
Hello there, I’m thinking to get the Hobbywing Max 8 G2 Esc and motor for a 1/8 Eachie EAT02 would you recommend it and if so what battery’s should I get?
Calum Wells / 10th March 2024

I am sorry we do not know that vehicle but this is a very good 1/8 brushless system and we recommend 2x 3s lipos like this SCH-CR780

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Hi can i put a single 6s battery on this or 2 3s
Steven / 3rd January 2024

It will run with either but you would need a loop connector to run one battery if it has 2 connectors.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Hi will this work in a hobao hyper ss
Steven / 28th November 2023

Yes this would work in that car for you.

Si @ Wheelspin Models
