Hobbywing Platinum 40A V4 - 7A BEC (3-4S)

Excellent motor governing speed

High-performance 72 MHz 32-bit processor combined with advanced algorithm optimizes the speed governing. Together with the adjustable governor parameters guarantees every pilot an accurate RPM control experience.

High voltage built-in BEC
The built-in switch mode BEC with an adjustable voltage range from 5 to 8 Volts (0.1V step), provide a continuous current of over 7A and peak current of 18A wich can supply enough power for your servos to operate efficiently and safely.

DEO technology
The DEO (Driving Efficiency Optimization, or so called "Active Freewheeling") technology implemented in the ESC has multiple advantages.

• Quicker response to the throttle change.
• Higher driving efficiency, longer flight time.
• Lower ESC temperature and a more reliable operation (This 60A ESC is 14°c colder than the previous 50A after 8 minutes running).

Reverse brake modes (fixed-wing airplanes)
The Hobbywing Platinum 60A V4 brushless ESC offers several brake modes: "Brake Disabled, Normal Brake, Proportional Brake and Reverse Brake". The brake amount is adjustable in normal brake mode; in proportional brake mode, the brake force will be automatically allocated based on the position of the radio throttle stick; in reverse brake mode, the motor rotation can be changed via a spare transmitter channel.

The Reverse Brake mode enabled when landing can effectively shorten the sliding distance of the fixed-wing aircraft to simulate the landing of a real aircraft (within a super short distance). The Normal Brake Mode, Proportional Brake mode, and Brake Disabled mode are also available; the brake amount is adjustable in normal brake mode while in proportional brake mode, the brake force will be automatically allotted on the basis of the position of radio throttle stick.

Multiple protections
Multiple protection features include, ESC thermal, capacitor thermal (HOBBYWING-patented technology), ESC overload, throttle signal loss (or Fail Safe), and low voltage cutoff effectively prolongs the service life of the ESC.

Other features
A separate programming port for connecting the Hobbywing Program Box on this ESC allows user to:

• Program ESC,
• check flight data include minimum voltage, maximum temperature, standardized RPM and speed curve (in Heli Governing Store mode) of the flight data recorded by the ESC,
• Upgrade ESC firmware with a multifunction LCD program box or a Wifi Express Module (with Apple/Android phone downloadable App).
