Team Powers Radon Pro V4.1 2S ESC

New from Team Powers, the Radon Pro V4.1 (2S) Speed Control is the next evolution of the Radon Pro V4. Sporting a limited edition casing with golden highlights, there is more fins on the case to better dissipate heat and lower the speed control’s temperature. Without the fan the ESC has a height of only 15.5mm for a low centre of gravity. Some internal components have been upgraded to improve the reliability while the software has also received some tweaks. With Limit Power and Limit Power Range, two function were added to control the initial power within a throttle range to adapt to different traction conditions, while the throttle frequency can now support 32KHZ with better linearity.
