Get the Edge Over the Competition!

Phoenix Edge Series ESCs are the next evolution in speed controller technology. The white user-programmable auxiliary wire can be used for features such as helicopter governor gain input adjustments mid-flight,serving as an audible beacon after an “unexpected landing”, acting as an RPM output for 3-axis gyros that support RPM sensors, be used as an ESC arming lock (coupon for free Arming Lockout Key included), or as a receiver arming lock. Combined with data logging, access to Castle’s industry leading software functions, and USB programming capability via Castle Link USB adapter (coupon included), , or the new B-LINK Bluetooth Adapter and Castle Link for iOS, Phoenix Edge offers unparalleled versatility.

*RC HOBBY APPLICATION RATING: 75 amps for the duration of a single 5,000 mAh battery pack with the ESC in contact with a 5 mph airflow of25C (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 0.5 seconds – long enoughfor most servos’ current draw transients. Your setup may vary. Alwaysconfirm servo current draw before the first flight of the model.

Product Features

Data Logging:

Available using Castle Link USB adapter and the Castle Link Windows software to read, analyze and store the data recorded on the ESC.

Power System Alerts:

The Edge 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.

AUX Functionality:

The Edge ESCs offer an AUX LINE, which is the extra white wire connected to the receiver cable. This line may be used for a variety of tasks such as helicopter governor gain input adjustments mid-flight, serve as an audible beacon after an "unexpected landing", act as an RPM output for 3-axis gyros that support RPM sensors, be used as an ESC arming lock (coupon for free Arming Lockout Key included) or as a receiver arming lock.

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.

Protection Features:

Arm Lock Key: When the Arming Lockout Key is in the socket, the controller will be incapable of arming. (coupon for Arming Lockout Key and Harness included with EDGE purchase)
RC Arm Lock: The controller will not arm or run when the auxiliary channel is below 50% after connecting the AUX line to an open channel on your receiver that is programmed to serve as an arm lock switch.

Warranty:

Castle Creations, Inc. warrants this product to be free from manufacturing defects for a period of one year from date of purchase.

Programmability:

Fully programmable Castle feature set using Castle Link USB adapter (coupon for free Castle Link adapter included in package) and freely downloadable Castle Link Windows software or the Castle Link iOS App and a B-Link Bluetooth Adapter.   (A small subset of the settings available through Castle Link Windows software can be accessed via manual programming through the transmitter stick).

Firmware Upgrade:

Users will receive free access to all firmware updates, including added features sets using the Castle Link USB Programming Kit


Castle Link Compatible
With the Castle Link USB Programming Kit you can use your Windows™ PC to easily program your controller. Castle Link includes all code for all Castle Link compatible hobby products in one convenient download. Note:Castle Link software requires a Castle Link USB Adapter and a computer that is running Windows. Castle Link is compatible with Windows Vista,Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10. Macintosh users may take advantage of software such as Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, or Apple's BootCamp along with Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10 to run the Castle Link software, provided the Macintosh has an Intel processor. Macintosh installation is not supported by Castle Creations.

Additional Castle Link benefits include:
  • Access expanded programming and parameters for Castle controllers (see overview below) 
  • Access to all firmware updates, including added features sets released from Castle Engineering, at no charge.
  • Intuitive Demo Mode capability
  • Ability to default ESC to factory settings

Sparky From United States
Perfect choice for NMPRA 424E pylon racing
August 23, 2022
I have run the entire season with this ESC. No issues when using a 4S Nano Tech 3.700 Mah battery and Rimfire motor APC 9x6E propeller pulling around 70 amps at the start. With the APC 9x7.5 it will set the over current alarm unless you add power slowly at the start. Only 130 degrees with no cooling airflow in a 90 second race.
