About The Cobra 8:
32-Bit Processor
Using the state-of-the-art 32-bit processor, this ESC is able to allow for smoother power delivery. It also allows for faster data sampling rates to give users more points of data to make precise adjustments.
Cryo-Drive
Castle Creations Cryo-Drive uses advanced technology to ensure less heat buildup while maintaining peak performance. Cryo-Drive optimally controls what components are being used to control the motor. This is happening at thousands of times per second to reduce the rate the ESC can heat up.
Data Logging
The Cobra 8 ESC has many updates done to the data logging capabilities. The data is recorded at 8x the older generation ESCs with double the sample rate. With a built in accelerometer, this ESC allows for accurate acceleration data. A looping feature prevents interruptions in data recording. The data provided by the ESC allows you to make changes to your chassis based on reliable data.
