An excellent electronic speed controller for RC cars and trucks shoud provide high-performance without sacrificing protection and safety. RC cars and trucks are crucial assets to RC hobby enthusiasts, we must provide full protection when they are powering their beloved RC cars or trucks through our speed controller (ESC).
We can see that there are lots of speed controller manufacturers always shown the power, current or number of battery cells. Actually, most of manufacturers can make speed controllers with high power, high voltage and heavy current. Are these characteristics the most important? No doubt, these attributes are important, but many electronic speed controller suppliers and manufacturers neglected a fundamental element-safety. Maybe most of RC enthusiasts had experienced great loss due to power beyond control.

E8 Speed Controller designed for 1:8th RC cars and Trucks with 160A, 6S
It’s essential to reducing damage possibility of RC model and ensure safety of players through full protection, for beginners or senior enthusiasts. That’s a thought deeply rooted in the mind of XC’s team.
High power 160A 6S. XC Technology XC202-E8 electronic speed controller for RC cars and trucks, for instance, is a powerful ESC designed for 1:8 scale RC cars or trucks. This ESC can handle 6S LiPo batteries, with up to 160A continuous current, it allows you to do any stunts like launch control, side standing, somersault or whatever.
12 levels of acceleration(Punch). With 12 levels of acceleration and 10 level PWM initial speed, XC202-E8 can let your RC cars or trucks run on rear wheels, even show back flip. You can set this item according to your skill. 6th level or below is recommended for beginners.
Powerful BEC. Built-in 8.4V BEC adapts to high voltage servo, with 10A continuous current, achieving real-time response to servo.
These attributes can push your RC car to limits, is that all? No, what we need more is safety, for both RC cars or trucks and personal safety.
Anti-spark design. It will reduce spark when connecting plugs of batteries and ESCs, improving service life of plugs and protecting batteries and ESCs.
IP67 rating. Potting with epoxy for waterproof and dustproof allow you to drive RC cars or trucks at any weather conditions and terrains.
Smart thermal managment. The 40mm fan is controlled intelligently by RC speed controller. When temperature is above 55 Celsius degrees, fan will be turned on. When temperature drops to 50 Celsius degrees, fan will be turned off. Comparing to other electronic speed controllers (ESCs), the fan starts running when ESC is on. XC ESC reduces energy consumption for longer runtime.

Active freewheeling. The precision active freewheeling can reduce MOS generating heat and avoid excessive current pulse.
Current limiting in each single PWM cycle. It is also called wave-by-wave current limiting. This is a very important protection technique, which can protect power switch elements and motor when there is a sudden heavy current or has a short-circuited output.
It can a) reduce impact of pulse current on motor; b) reduce impact on switch MOS; c) ESC will detect and control current 20,000 times per second in each PWM cycle, no need to shut down ESC.
Traditionally, when over current occurs, it will be controlled after 10 times process, then power will be decreased or ESC shut down. Comparing to this mode, XC electronic speed controller provides better user experience.
XC E-series speed controllers (ESCs)for RC cars and trucks have been used in RC cars and trucks modification, like Losi 5T converting from gas to electric. XC electronic speed controllers (ESCs) will redefine the R/C limits and is able to put your RC cars or trucks in extreme.
