Performa Racing waterproof crawler brushless combo

Performa Racing have announced the release of their new waterproof brushless speed controller and motor combo for trail trucks and crawlers. The set includes the new Limited Red Rock Edition Radical Crawler motor and the new Radical Crawler controller. A specialised sensor technology and a crawler special staggered pole rotor deliver a new level of speed accuracy for uphill, downhill, and super slow crawling conditions. The Radical Technology provides ultra-smooth throttle control without cogging and allows precise deceleration when going down steep inclines. Included is a waterproof switch and waterproof sensor harness, making the Radical Crawler Combo water friendly so owners can enjoy the most extreme crawling adventures. The controller is set up so it can be used right out of the box and for owners that like to experiment and fine tune for ultimate control, 14 parameters can be adjusted using the electronic switch or with an optional program box. The Radical Crawler Controller is compatible with other sensored, sensorless, or brushed motors and both the ESC and motor are also available separately.
