ACCESSORIES: CASTLE LINK QUICK CONNECT

Quick Connect!

Experienced modelers go to great pains to tie down their servo and throttle leads, and some find unplugging a Castle controller from the receiver disrupts all their work. Many have asked for something like a Y connector that gives an open lead for easy Castle linking, but a traditional Y harness doesn't work when the other branch of the Y is connected to a receiver - the signal line must be disconnected from the receiver.

Quick Connect detects the presence of a Castle Link adapter on the free lead and switches the controller's signal line from the receiver to the Castle Link.

The Quick Connect is recommended for the following ESCs:

Surface: Sidewinder v1/2/3/SCT, SW4, Sidewinder Micro, Sidewinder Micro 2, Mamba Micro Pro, Mamba Max, Mamba Max Pro, Mamba Monster, Mamba Monster 2, Copperhead 10, Cobra 8, Cobra 10.

Air: Phoenix ICE, Phoenix ICE HV, Thunderbird, Talon 15, 25, 35, 60, 90, Phoenix HV.

Note: If you have a Castle ESC with dual BEC wires (Mamba XL X or Talon HV 120) or require more than 6 amps from the BEC you must use Quick Connect Duo.

Note: Neither Quick Connect, nor Quick Connect Duo will work with the Field Programming Cards when used as a standalone programmer. It will ONLY work when using the Field Programming Card as a Castle Link adapter.

Tech Tip - Can be used with the B-Link Bluetooth adapter. The order of connection is ESC > Quick Connect > B-Link > Receiver.
