About the Blackbox 880R ESC
Built for Competition
The Reedy Blackbox 880R ESC is engineered for 1/8 eBuggy, eTruggy, and 1:10 4WD Short Course dominance. Delivering 180A continuous and 700A peak current, it handles high-demand applications with ease. The CNC-machined aluminum case, integrated heatsink, and 30mm fan with machined shroud ensure thermal stability during extended race sessions.
Precision Tuning Control
Whether you're a weekend racer or a seasoned pro, the 880R offers unmatched adjustability. With the optional Blackbox Programmer2, you can dial in brake strength, throttle response, current limits, motor timing, and more — using either Standard or Expert tuning modes. This allows racers to fine-tune for any track surface, vehicle, or motor setup.
Smart Features
Integrated power capacitors, heavy-duty solder tabs, and an ultra-low resistance FET board deliver efficiency and reliability. Adjustable BEC voltage (6.0–7.4V) lets you tune servo performance, while motor reverse, thermal protection, and data logging provide advanced safety and diagnostics. Plus, firmware updates ensure long-term performance evolution.
