Could be better

Apr 26, 2018

Have fitted this to my 450L and its a nice fit and appears to be a good operating ESC, but is let down by not having a soft start option which is a must have to be a good heli ESC. The HW 100amp ESC and even the older blue body HW 40amp ESC have the option, so, its bizarre that this one does not have it.

I think it's one the best ESCs in this size, easy programming with the LCD Box, Governor is working really fine, doesn't get hot even in hard flight and the BEC is also good.

Very nice ESC, good quality and genuine Hobbywing. Not sure what this fool with a one star rating is about? HK should also stock the Hobbywing LCD Program Box Card USB Link (3in1) but I just ordered that from the Bay instead. Hope to see the new 60A V3 here also soon.

After much flights i`m really impressed. Even with only 65 pcnt throttle the governor store works as perfect as it does with 75 pcnt. This ESC is really great! I`m using it in my old HK-T500 with 4S 5200 mAh MultiStar-Lipos and half-symetrich Spinblades, i can fly headspeeds between 1300 and 1700 rpm with my setup. With 1300 rpm at 65 pcnt, i get flight times around 20 - 25 minutes. The ESC stays cool and the governor store makes it possible to fly such low rpm without any issues. The BEC has no problems with the 3x MG-930 swashplate servos and the TGY-616 MG tailservo, running them at 5.2 volt. Got my 2nd HW Platinum V3 50 A now from the EU warehouse and the 2nd one works like the first, just perfect. This ESC is a perfect match with the Turnigy H3126 500 heli motor, no matter the 500 heli is flown as a trainer or scaler.

This is an excellent 50A ESC which has a high current BEC that is able to handle the high current draw from 4 micro digital servos. I have been using one on a HK Arcus for a couple of months and it is working perfectly. Ideally you need the new HobbyWIng programming box that is able to programme the V3 ESCs. The old Turnigy 2in1 programmer that I have also works, but you need to use it via your PC using the HobbyWIng programming App.
