Thunderbird 9 Amp Brushless ESC
The Castle Creations Thunderbird 9 amp controller is an excellent entry level brushless speed controller perfect for applications requiring 9 amps or less in current and not needing the advanced programming that the Phoenix range offers. The Thunderbird 9 comes pre-programmed for li-poly use out of the box. It can also be programmed for NiCad/NiMH use with its built in program function or through the USB-Link.
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 Micro Plug connectors with this controller.
All Castle Creations speed controls feature:
- Battery Eliminator Circuit (BEC)
- Safe "Power On"
- Low torque Soft Start, protects gear boxes and belt drives from shock
- Simple setup, no complicated switches or wiring
- Tough surface mount construction
- Smooth reverse exponential throttle
- Audible Arming Signal
