ORCA BP1001 Blinky Pro stock ESC

The new ORCA Blinky Pro was developed with blinky stock class racing in mind and features all the necessary options to adjust the ESC to your liking, while remaining in blinky mode at all times. As expected it it doesn’t offer any boost or turbo timing options, but does have many useful adjustments such as braking, punch and general feel to help you get everything dialled in just right. The 100A current limit can handle motors down to 10.5T and a nice option is the ability to run with an RPM limit of 17,500rpm.
