Team Orion Vortex R10 Race controller

Team Orion got in touch to tell us about their latest addition to the R10 line of 1/10 scale speed controllers. Based on the the 4-times US National Champion R10 Pro the Swiss company introduces the R10 Race 2-3S Club Racing speed controller. The speedo, that is ideal for the zero degrees fixied timing class, features the same aluminium case as the Pro offerings, the Race offers the possibility to use LiPo batteries up to 3S with a 10.5T motor limit, 5.75V/3A linear mode BEC and on-board programming of various parameters like drive mode, punch, brake and low-voltage adjustments via the on/off switch. Using the optional DSB-R programming box gives additional access to boost and turbo programmes. The new speedo also sports a special capacitor board that allows the neat and secure positioning of the capacitors that are housed in a small plastic casing. You can now also download the 2011 US Nationals winning setups used by Jared Tebo, Dustin Evans and Dakotah Phend by clicking here.
