Thunderbird 18 Amp ESC
The Thunderbird entry level brushless controler goes from package to flight line without the need for programing. Simplified settings and pre-configured for LiPo batteries the Thunderbird controllers are a great value and offer rock solid performance. Thunderbird ESC's are suitable for most electric models.
Why use a poor quality no name brand when you can fly with the confidence of a Castle Creations ESC!
We recommend using the Deans Ultra Plug connectors with this controller.
