Product #: 010-0166-08

THERE'S A NEW PREDATOR IN TOWN.

The COPPERHEAD 10 PERFORMANCE 1:10 SCALE ESC is ideal for those who want sensored motor support, data logging, a 6A peak selectable internal BEC (5.5V or 7.5V) and Castle’s signature reliability and performance in the meanest looking ESC around! If you’re looking to transform your 1:10 scale stock vehicle from dull to dangerously fun, COPPERHEAD can do it with its buttery smooth starts, CRYO-DRIVE enabled performance and up to 4S power in a compact, easy-to-install footprint.


CRAWLER COMBO includes a 1406-3800kv sensored motor for 2s-3s operation in rock crawlers, trail rigs, touring cars, stadium trucks, and buggies. (Max vehicle weight 9 lbs. for crawling)


COPPERHEAD 10 FEATURES:

  • CRYO-DRIVE™ Technology minimizes the amount of time the ESC’s electrical components spend generating heat, resulting in improved thermal performance during partial throttle operation where most of the driving occurs.
  • ESC is housed in a durable injection molded case and potted in waterproof epoxy to protect the electronics and promote efficient heat transfer.
  • 30mm removable fan and DUAL USE FAN GUARD
  • AUDIBLE ALERTS for easy diagnosis of common issues such as motor-over-temperature and low-voltage cutoff.
  • Convenient TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING for six common adjustable settings including cutoff voltage and drag brake.
  • Additional settings and software updates are available via Windows®-based PC and a Castle Link software and USB adapter (sold separately) or via our mobile Castle Link App and a B-LINK 2 Bluetooth Interface (sold separately).
  • DATA LOGGING LITE* captures and records performance data from your vehicle to maximize performance and battery life. (Battery Voltage Battery Ripple, Controller temp, Motor RPM, Motor Temp)
  • PROUDLY DESIGNED AND SUPPORTED IN KANSAS, USA.
  • Backed by Castle Creations' 1-YEAR WARRANTY

*Data Logging capabilities require the use of Castle Link Programming Suite using a Windows™ PC and freely downloadable software.

FEATURES
Data Logging Lite: Battery Voltage, Battery Ripple, Controller Temperature, Motor RPM and Motor Temperature data points can be captured, downloaded and analyzed via Castle Link software. While not a full version of Data Logging capabilities that the MAMBA X EXTREME 1:10 SCALE ESC has, these critical parameters are excellent sources of information for maximizing performance and battery life of the COPPERHEAD 10.
Power System Alerts: COPPERHEAD 10 features Audible Alerts that will notify you via audible chimes of possible issues with calibrations and error conditions to help diagnose problems. Details are included in the enclosed Quick Start Guide. 
CASTLE-LINK Tuning: For over 25 years Castle engineers have been setting the bar for industry leading software functionality. The Castle Link Programming Suite is your ticket to creating the perfect setup. To gain access to the host of tuning parameters, purchase a Castle Link USB adapter and download the simple to install software from our website and you are ready to personalize your controller's settings. You can now wirelessly program your ESC with the free Castle Link Mobile App and the purchase the B-Link 2 Bluetooth Adapter.
CRYO-DRIVE Technology: Castle’s newest software technology, CRYO-DRIVE™ minimizes the amount of time the ESC's electrical components spend generating heat by optimally controlling which components are being used while driving the motor. This is happening thousands of times per second, which greatly reduces the rate at which the ESC heats up. This results in significantly improved thermal performance during partial throttle operation where the majority of driving occurs. Your setup will be able to handle higher gear ratios, in heavier vehicles, with longer runs.
SMARTSENSE Technology: When paired with a Castle 4-POLE 12-SLOT SENSORED MOTOR, SMARTSENSE™ software, enabled by default in the Castle Link Programming Suite, will use the motor’s sensors to provide smooth starts, excellent torque, and low-speed drivability. Once the motor is turning, it seamlessly transitions to Castle’s ULTRA-EFFICIENT sensorless mode with electric timing. Smooth sensored startups and high-efficiency sensorless running makes the COPPERHEAD 10 system produce more power and less heat. QUIETSENSE™ is an innovative advancement in the design of sensored motors to deliver the highest precision and most efficient startup.
Warranty: The COPPERHEAD 10 is proudly designed and manufactured in Olathe, Kansas USA and is backed by Castle Creations’ 1-year warranty and unparalleled "make-it-right" customer support. Call us, email us, or walk in our front door – we’re here to help. Click here for additional information about our Tier 1 and Tier II warranty.
Firmware Updates: You will receive alerts in Castle Link programming if a new update is available. 
Operating Environment: Waterproof design allows for use in nearly any environment.
Transmitter Programming: Convenient transmitter programming for six common adjustable settings including cutoff voltage and drag brake. Details are included in the enclosed Quick Start Guide. 
Brushless Power Packages: We’ve packaged the COPPERHEAD 10 with over a dozen different 4-POLE 12-SLOT sensored motor options to eliminate the guesswork in finding the right brushless power upgrade for your basher, crawler, on road vehicle, short course or monster truck.
Internal BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit): If your rig is outfitted with high-power servos (or additional torque increasing modifications) there is no need to worry about brown-outs, glitching or slow actuating servos, COPPERHEAD 10 is equipped with a user selectable (using Castle Link programming) 5.5V or 7.5V (6A peak) internal BEC to provide clean and constant power.

Tech Notes: Running modes: Sensorless and Sensored

Water Resistant Design: The sensor board is coated with silicone conformal coating to protect the sensors from moisture. The sensor connections are not water resistant; water can cause signal loss which could result in loss of sensored capabilities. Castle recommended applying dielectric grease to the outside of the sensor wire connections after installation of the wire. Routine maintenance is recommended after running in wet conditions. Please refer to this document for running and maintaining motors in wet environments.
