Using in an aircraft driving an AXi 42mm outrunner, works great. A great cheap alternative to plane esc's at the price

Hello. I have a few of these esc's and they are pretty good at delivering the amps. But you will be dissapointed if you want to change the timing or set the brake because they CAN NOT be programmed with any card or even your transmitter. The ad you are looking at says they can be programmed using the transistor but mine has no user interface what-so-ever. I certainly cant use the device on my rig because I wanted to use a brake on the prop and set the low voltage threshold. The guide does not even tell the user what these thresholds or parameters actually are. The motor will not even emit the battery count let alone brake or timing or low voltage threshold. I believe you can install a bootloader and then install the simon k or bl heli program but this will cost you an extra 60 dollars for the arduino programmer and afro programmer that are required. I would imagine that several days is required to learn how to use these programmers.
Summing it up, I would suggest you buy another esc from a reputable supplier who does not make these spurious claims about the user program interface.
