The brand new line of Elite Falcon Opto & SBEC ESCs target mainly professionals
and pilots looking for uncompromising precision and quality. The Elite Falcon ESCs combine new revolutionary
design, system upgradability, almost unlimited flexibility with state of the art telemetry capabilities.
The Falcon product line represents advanced speed controllers for exclusive use in airplanes, drones,
sailplanes or any kind of radio control application. With integrated telemetry and various possibilities
of optional user configuration, the controllers offer high efficiency, low weight and precise motor
control. The telemetry system in the Elite Falcon ESC lets you monitor in real time
the
Amperage (Amp), Voltage (V), and Capacity (mAh) consumed from the battery, ESC
even calculates
Power (W) output of the system. You can also measure the ESC Temperature
and add external
Motor Temperature and
Propeller Positioning sensors.
The Elite Falcon line of Brushless ESCs adds another revolutionary feature utilizing
Backup Battery Integration.
We have created a more robust hardware platform including increased cooling capability, smaller overall
packaging, and selectable sensitivity to allow you to use any brushless motor that you choose. No
matter which size you choose, the Elite Falcon series brushless speed controllers are right
for your next project.

Active Freewheeling (Active Motor Braking)
Brand new feature of the speed controller that reduces heat generated by the ESC during partial load
operation. This mode is useful for 3D extreme and F3A precision aerobatic pilots who want not only fast
acceleration, but also rapid deceleration. The motor follows throttle stick input in both ways and
the pilot feels more completely in control.
Current Limiter (Active Power Monitoring)
The current limiter is a part of safety controller features. It does not stop the motor but rather
continuously monitors the immediate current consumption and adjusts the motor power. You can enable
this feature, specify the maximum allowed current and the ESC will reduce the motor power immediately as
soon as the current threshold is exceeded. After the current returns back to the safe level, the motor
power is restored.
Receiver Backup Battery (Buffer Battery Integration)
In case you need a small buffer battery for covering voltage spikes of your RC system, you can specify type of
the battery in the Common Setting – Backup Battery Menu. After setting up the battery type it is necessary
to remove all power supplies from the controller and reset the ESC.
