Hobbywing XeRun V10 G3R brushless stock motor

Hobbywing have announced the release of their new XeRun V10 G3R electric brushless stock motor. Building on the proven V10 G3 the “R” variant offers further enhanced performance thanks to a 13.3 percent increase in torque, a 6.5 percent increase in RPM and up to 8.6 percent of overall power gain. In addition the internal resistance could be lowered by 11 percent while efficiency was increased by 6 percent, resulting in greatly reduced operation temperatures. At 139g the motor is also very low of weight – thanks to a highly machined aluminium heat-sink design can – making chassis balance adjustments a lot easier. The ROAR and EFRA spec motor is available in 13.5T to 25.5T stock winding variants with the 13.5T to 21.5T motors utilising a 7-12.5×25.2 rotor with optional rotors being available to fine-tune the motors’ power characteristics.

Hobbywing XeRun XR10 Pro 1S Heavy Duty ESC

Hobbywing have introduced their new XeRun XR10 Pro 1S Heavy Duty brushless speed controller specially designed for competition 1/12th scale racing. New internals allow for greatly improved heat dissipation even when using low-turn modified motors or when racing in high ambient temperatures while a built-in switch and capacitor module keep wiring as clean as possible while also saving weight. The controller features five pre-set profiles for all sorts of racing conditions, however they can be customised using Hobbywing’s optional WiFi Module and an iOS or Android-based mobile device or a programming box. The internal BEC system with 6V/3A output does away with the need of a separate receiver battery and adjustable throttle and brake PWM frequencies ensure precise throttle and brake control especially in Stock motor classes.
