HOBBYWING XERUN XR8 PRO G3 ESC

Hobbywing XR8 PRO G3 ESC 

XR8 PRO G3 Sensored Brushless 2-4S Racing ESC 

Compact and capable carry light on the field 

The new XR8 Pro G3 ESC is 1.3mm shorter, and 5.3mm narrower compared to its predecessor. The overall footprint is reduced by approximately 15%, The all-new fully sensored XR8 PRO G3 ESC meets the needs of high-end 8th scale racing applications with its strong explosive power, ultra large output power(200a), while having excellent low-speed linearity. 

Dual brake modes 

The innovative closed-loop torque brake control mode is also known as the disc brake mode. It completely solves the problem of non-linear force caused by the influence of vehicle speed on traditional braking methods. It enables linear output of braking force accurately, similar to the effect of real car disc brakes. The disc brake mode supports the adjustment of the curvature of the braking force and force distribution of the front and rear sections of the brakes. At the same time, the traditional braking mode is retained to take into account the driver's control habits. 

Higher Efficiency - Lower Heat Generation 

Excellent hardware design combined with innovative smart freewheeling technology enables the ESC to have higher drive efficiency and lower operating temperature. Compared with the XR8 Pro G2, the maximum temperature is reduced by approximately 15°C, and the ESC is stable and reliable. 

Remarks: Under heavy load conditions, the temperature of the XR8 Pro G3 is lower than the XR8 Pro G2. 

Frameless fan - Efficient and durable 

The frameless fan blade is designed with the use of specially formulated material to reduce the defective rate of the fan caused by impact from small stones, sand and other foreign objects. 

Intelligent fan start/stop - Noise reduction and power savings 

The fan of the ESC does not work when the temperature is low. The fan will automatically turn on when the temperature rises to the pre-set value. The intelligent start and stop function of the fan not only reduces noise, saves power, but also ensures that the ESC works in a good temperature range. 

Advanced Boost & Turbo Timing Technology 

The XR8 Pro G3 ESC performs the best when it is paired with the recommended HOBBYWING motor. It inherits the same Turbo Timing technology used on the XR10 Pro series used in 1/10th On-Road and Off-Road competition.This ESC is able to support up to 48 degrees of Boost and Turbo Timing. There is a 50% increase in performance and is only recommended to pair with the new HOBBYWING 4268/4274 G3 motors. 

Built-in reverse polarity protection circuit - Reinforced protection 

The ESC is reverse polarity protected. In an event when a user makes a mistake by reversing the polarity, the ESC will not be broken. 

Real-time data recording function, easy to obtain power running status 

After connecting the OTA module box (bough separately), turn on real-time data recording function to access the operating status. 

Note: The effective distance is only about 5m due to Bluetooth transmission distance. 

Capacitor Thermal Protection 

Capacitor thermal protection is designed and implemented into the ESC and will effectively prevent capacitors from exploding and causing irreversible damage to the ESC due to overload. 

Note: If the overheating protection of the ESC is off, and it is used on a flat road vehicle, please add a capacitor pack, otherwise the capacitor may be overheated and damaged! 

Superior Dustproof Protection 

The ESC is IP5X rated. It has a superior dustproof protection to protect the ESC in all types of environments. In addition, the ESC is equipped with a small protective cover for better fan protection. 

Custom ultra-soft 11AWG silicone wire 

The ultra-soft 11AWG silicone wire is specially chosen for this product. The wire is ultra-flexible and low in resistance, making it the perfect combination to for your electronics.
