Castle Copperhead 10 Sensored ESC SCT Edition w/ 1410-3800KV Motor

Meet the COPPERHEAD 10 PERFORMANCE ESC. It takes to the open road as well as it takes to no road at all. 

This completely new design rounds out 1:10 scale offerings, positioned between the SIDEWINDER 4 as the entry-level upgrade and the MAMBA X as the extreme performance option. The COPPERHEAD 10 includes CRYO-DRIVE(TM TECHNOLOGY, SENSORED MOTOR SUPPORT and DATA LOGGING LITE with Castle’s signature reliability and performance.

The ESC can be installed and calibrated (plug and play) and provide immediate fuss-free wheel time. Through the interface-free manual programming mode, using your transmitter you can set your low-voltage cutoff, brake/reverse type, brake amount, drag brake, motor type and direction. Likewise, you can employ the use of the Castle Link Programming Suite on your Windows(TM) PC (coupon for free USB adapter included with purchase), or wirelessly with the convenience of the new B-Link(TM) Bluetooth(TM) Adapter and Castle Link app for Android or iOS.  Additional Castle Link benefits include access to all firmware updates and added features sets released from Castle Engineering (at no charge), the ability to download and analyze your collected Data Log , an Intuitive Demo Mode capability as well as the option to save setup profiles (for multiple vehicles) for later use.
