Castle Creations | Phoenix HV High Voltage Brushless Motor Controls

Products > Phoenix HV Brushless Motor Controls

Phoenix HV Brushless Speed Controls are ready to fly out of the package, but they are also fully programmable using our incredible Castle Link USB interface and software (sold separately). Users may configure their controller in a wide variety of settings including your choice of low voltage cutoff behavior, braking profiles, throttle reaction, and start power. A full range of helicopter governor settings is only a few clicks away.

Phoenix HV-30 Brushless Motor Control

Meet the “baby” of the Phoenix HV line, complementing our reliable Phoenix HV-45, HV-85 and HV-110. Watch out, this baby sure packs a punch! Phoenix HV-30 easily handles 30 amps at up to 50 volts, that’s 1,500 watts in a package that is nearly the same size as the standard Phoenix-35 controller. Use Phoenix HV-30 anywhere high-power and light weight are critical.

We are sure that it will bring a whole new dimension of power and efficiency to electric aircraft.

Use voltage, not amps to get the power that you need. An HV setup allows use of lower capacity cells and lighter wire gauges. This is a perfect recipe for small high-performance applications such as racers or small helis OR long endurance applications such as AULD or small UAVs.

Phoenix HV-30 is going to help you turn some heads!
