The Aerostar RVS G2 next-generation range of brushless speed controllers moves up a notch from the ground-breaking original Aerostar RVS ESCs. They are more compact, lighter, and process faster due to high-performance 32bit technology, have improved functionality and programmable features, and an upgraded, high-amp SBEC system. New generation MOSFETs ensure that the ESC stays within operating temperatures, and can also safely handle the peak current draw specified. Our RVS (reverse function system) is now instantaneous, with no need for the motor to stop turning, this makes it perfect for EDF braking (reverse thrust), and waterplanes for taxiing, etc. If you don't require the reverse function, simply do not connect the second lead to your receiver, it will then operate as a standard ESC.

The Aerostar RVS G2 brushless reversing speed controllers have been designed for a range of fixed-wing applications including as mentioned above, EDF braking (reverse thrust), floatplane/flying boat operations, and with the soft-start function, geared motors using large standard or folding propellers. Another feature of the G2 range of ESC is the addition of HEF (Higher-Efficiency Function) technology. The HEF circuitry allows for better heat dissipation, and lower energy loss when used with certain applications, this function when selected is very similar to "Active Freewheeling". When set to "Off" (the factory default) it's perfect for low to medium KV outrunner motors, when set to "On", it's perfect for high KV outrunners, and inrunners such as those used in EDFs or direct drive racing models.

Features that have been retained from the original version are the super smooth start-up, linear throttle response, and multiple protection features. These protections include start-up (prevents motor accidentally starting when powering up), low-voltage cut-off, phase loss, and signal loss, to fully protect the components of your ESC. Programming the many functions of the Aerostar RVS G2 ESC is very simple using either your transmitter or the optional LCD programming card.

Installation is very straightforward as these speed controllers come "Plug N Play", no soldering is required as they are supplied pre-fitted with an XT60 connector for the battery, and 3.5mm gold connectors for the motor.
