Performa P1 120A brushless controller

Performa Racing are busy adding more brushless speed controllers to their range of high-performance products with the latest being the P1 120A controller. Rated at 120A and usable with sensored or sensorless motors, the 2S to 4S LiPo-compatible controller is ideal for lightweight 1/8th scale buggies as well as 1/10th scale short course and monster trucks. The high-quality hardware allows for a small 48x35mm footprint and a low weight of only 121g. A switchable 6V/7.4V BEC system gives enough performance even for power-hungry high-voltage servos and advanced programming allows to fine-tune the ESC to a wide range of track conditions. The controller is housed in a machined aluminium case for improved heat dissipation and it comes pre-wired with black cables ensuring a professional factory look.

Features:
– Small and light (38g lighter than Performa P1 Controller 150 A) structure design greatly simplifies the installation of the power system especially for vehicles like buggies and touring cars with compact chassi
– With the Performa Program Box the user can program parameters, upgrade firmware easily from the track or the PC software
– The Performa P1 Controller 120 A provides exceptionally smooth power output which will greatly improve driving performance
– The thermal protection implemented in the Performa P1 Controller 120 A will prevent overload damage to the ESC
– High voltage built-in BEC with an output current of up to 4 Amp and a switchable output voltage of 6V-7.4V allows users to use various high torque and high voltage servos
– Built with the most rugged and high-quality components and coupled with cutting-edge firmware, the Performa P1 Controller 120 A is able to deliver unmatched power and performance for even the most hardcore of racing applications, and responsive enough to protect itself from damage due to overloading due to physical abuse, overuse or even human error
– Electronic switch with a high lifespan for trouble-free operations
– Performa CNC machined billet aluminum case and heatsink added to the cooling fan will make sure it runs cool all the time
– The Performa P1 Controller 120 A ESC is not only applicable to 1/8th buggies and short-course trucks, but also 1/10th short-course trucks, trucks and monster trucks
