Talon User Guide Talon 90 Tech Drawing

*RC HOBBY APPLICATION RATING: 90 amps for the duration of a single 5,000mAh battery pack with the ESC in contact with a 5 mph airflow of 25C(77F) or cooler air. Controller temperature must never exceed 100C(212F). Exceeding current or temperature ratings may damage componentsand may shorten the life of the ESC. Always verify system current drawat full-throttle. Decrease load or increase airflow to decrease theESC’s operating temperature.

**Peak indicates amperage sustainable for 0.5seconds - long enough for most servos' current draw transients. Alwaysconfirm servo servo current draw before the first flight of the model.

Product Features

Power System Alerts:

The Talon ESCs are programmed to sound a number of tunes and codes using the motor as well as flashing LED patterns to alert users to certain conditions regarding their power system, such as over temperature, excessive load and locked head speed.

Telemetry Capable:

Telemetry has the potential not only to improve the safety of our models by monitoring battery voltages, ESC temperature, and other critical parameters, but it also creates other opportunities to get even more fun out of flying because you’ve essentially reduced the risks of “unknown” inevitable crashes. Think of the benefits to be had from alarms that will sound to warn you when there's interference about or if your receiver battery is running unexpectedly low. Requires purchase of Castle Telemetry Link for S.BUS2 (Item # 010-0152-00) and compatible Futaba Radio or Castle Telemetry Link for X-BUS (Item# 010-0148-00) and a compatible Spektrum Radio.

really good esc for Goblin 380/470 applications on 3-6s power/ 500 class possible ,but personally i would use the Castle .120 ice light for hungry 500-550-630 class helicopters (opinion) helis.
need data logging capablity in the near future though.
but other than that! great esc
bomb 90 amp esc for the price and power.
