The Hydra50 is a forwards and reverse Brushless motor speed control designed specifically for use in scale RC boats. It is aimed at entry level for people new to Brushless technology.
The Hydra50 has a 50Amp Brushless motor limit, this is a rough equivalent to a standard 600/700 can Brushed motor. The Hydra50 is best suited to small scale RC boats to be used at scale speeds or with small surface piercing prop speed boats.
Although the Hydra50 performs to a very high standard and is more than a match for any Brushed motor and speed control equivalent.
The Hydra50 Brushless speed control has been designed to fit straight into any RC model boat as a direct replacement for your Brushed speed controller. The set up is a no nonsense, one-step procedure making it very easy to get up and running in under a minute! The Hydra brushless controllers are all 100% waterproof giving you that extra peace of mind should the worst happen and you have to retreive your model from the graveyard under the pond!!
The Hydra50 benefits from 5 years worth of research and design work carried out by the Mtroniks design team with help from a few well known RC scale sailors. What this has resulted in is a Sensorless Brushless speed controller that works and feels just the same as a Brushed speed controller, giving you absolute control over the throttle with very smooth acceleration and the added bonus of longer run times when compared to equivalent Brushed speed controllers!
