Novak HV Pro High-Voltage Brushless ESC

Look no further for the perfect speed control to power monster trucks, it has arrived! The HV Pro High-Voltage Brushless ESC includes full programming and built-in Li-Po Cut-Off Circuitry. The HV Pro ESC was specifically developed by Novak for R/C cars, and are ideal to power monster trucks -- such as the Traxxas® E-Maxx™, Traxxas® E-Revo™, Kyosho® Twin-Force™ and HPI® E-Savage™ -- converted electric 1/8th scale vehicles and vehicles with massive power needs.

The HV Pro ESC can accommodate 6-14 Ni-Cd/Ni-MH cells (7.2-16.8 volts) or 2S-4S Li-Po and can be wired for dual or single battery packs. This high-power, reversible brushless speed control is also easy to install and operate. The HV Pro uses the same screw pattern as the Traxxas® E-Maxx™, Traxxas® E-Revo™, Kyosho® Twin-Force™ and HPI® E-Savage™, making it convenient to install, and it includes a Power-Boost ESC Cooling fan kit and factory-installed motor heat sink for superior cooling. In addition, the HV Pro High-Voltage Brushless ESC includes many of the same great features found in high-quality Novak ESCs, such as One-Touch Set-Up, Thermal Overload Protection, a powerful BEC, Polar Drive and Digital Anti-Glitch circuitries and Smart Braking II.

Novak has also done away with the external Li-Po module with the inclusion of the built-in, auto-detect Smart-Stop Li-Po Cut-Off Circuitry. When active, the Cut-Off Circuitry automatically switches to the proper Li-Po cut-off voltage for the connected battery packs, preventing the batteries from going below the critical safety voltage level.

In addition, the ESC includes black heat sinks for better heat transferl and plenty of powerful MOSFETS. You won’t mistake this high-voltage system with any other!

In addition to full programmability, Novak’s HV Pro High-Voltage Brushless ESC has three throttle profiles – two with reverse and one with forward/brake. Each throttle profile has on-board programming for extreme versatility and unmatched customization for Minimum Brake, Drag Brake, Dead Band, Minimum Drive, Throttle Curve, Brake Frequency, Brake Disable, Motor Rotation and Li-Po Cut-Off. These programming features make operating an R/C car as easy as One-Touch set-up. Novak’s Throttle Curve adjustment allows drivers to tailor the throttle response, creating either a quick burst of power with the Linear Curve setting, or a smoother, controlled low-end power delivery with the Expo Curve setting.
