 Thunderbird Brushless Motor Controls
Affordable reliability
 All Thunderbird controllers are ready to fly straight from the package, no programming necessary. They are defaulted to AUTO LIPO detect and no brake. Should users wish to modify these settings, they may do so using their transmitter or with Castle’s incredible Castle Link USB Programming Kit (sold separately).
Now available in 9, 18, and NEW 6, 36, and 54 amp models.
| NOTE: Thunderbird controllers are NOT for use in helicopters. Please use a Phoenix controller for heli applications. |
Thunderbird-6:
The lightened Thunderbird-9 is ideal for lightweight and mini planes that sip the power but provide loads of fun indoors or out.
Thunderbird-9:
Castle power and reliability at an import price. Designed for light foamies and small built up aerobats.
|
Thunderbird-18:
Perfect for larger foamies and small aerobats.
|
Thunderbird-36:
Need some power in your flying wing? Try a Thunderbird-36 for some serious fun!
|
Thunderbird-54:
Large and in charge. The Thunderbird-54 offers gobs of power at an unbelieveable price. You simply won't find this much controller for a better price, certainly not in the import bin! This controller is super for great aerobats such as the Multiplex Acromaster or for smaller powered gliders.
