About this part
The RS PRO Black Edition was specifically designed for 1S-2S Spec Classes and Drag Racing to take full advantage of the ULR circuit design. ULR FlexWire is included with every Black Edition ESC. Pair the RS PROs with a 13.5T, 17.5T or 21.5T SPEC-R motor for the ultimate Ultra Low Resistance SPEC system! This ESC is not intended to be used with the 6.5T SPEC-R motor or modified track racing applications.
For 1:10 scale 2WD/4WD Buggy, Stadium Truck and Modified Touring Car Tekin recommends the RSX Modified ESC as these setups tend to run at higher temperatures. The billet housing and fan shroud on the RSX provide sufficient cooling.

As far as the speed controller goes, well it’s junk and Tekin customer service is horrible. Received the speed controller, installed, plugged in the battery and double red blinking lights. Says there’s a short. Check the wiring, motor, sensor wire and it’s all solid. Call Tekin and they say well send it to us and if we determine it’s not user error we’ll fix it and send it back. Could take a while because of Covid. Oh so you got my money, now my shipping and I’m sure it’ll be user error and a bill. Been doing this 40 years folks, it’s not user error. Called A-main and was told they’d accept the return knowing they’d never get their money back from Tekin. Hey Tekin, that’s how you do customer service. Amain gained a customer for life. Tekin lost one and I’ll make it my mission to bad mouth them at every race, every crawler meet, every drag meet and anytime anyone will listen. So listen up AMain folks. Don’t do it. Grab that hobbywing pro or that Maclan. Stay away from the Tekin junk.
Awesome ESC & Customer Support. Tekin is a 5 star company to say the least. This particular ESC I bought went a bit haywire. This was a first in the years I've been running Tekin products. They honored their warranty and replaced the ESC. I got a brand new one back in a week. Gotta respect people who don't just talk it but also walk it. That being said, I highly recommend this ESC if you're running stock. You'll need the Hotwire to fully unlock its potential, but it's a small price to pay. Thqnk you, Tekin!
No words, absolutely a beast...used on a 13.5 build, I was running the Mamba monster X before witch it was good but now I see a huge difference... the car didn't wheelie before and now it was instant, and I haven't even tuned yet...
If anyone is in the market to go fast n have fun... with zero heat issues......
Very smooth really great esc I am a very big tekin fan been running them for years this one is just as expected
Most of the 18 reviews are positive and praise the ESC's power delivery, throttle response and adjustability, especially for no-prep and drag racing. Several reviewers say it outperformed previous ESCs, and one reports a noticeable gain over a stock unit. Reviewers also mention needing the Bluetooth Hotwire to unlock full tuning. Some note that one reviewer experienced a short-circuit fault out of the box and had a poor support experience, and another rated support negatively. One reviewer reports the unit runs warm without an added fan, while others report no heat issues. Some ratings do not match their text, so the overall picture is less clear-cut.
- + Strong power delivery
- + Adjustable settings and tuning
- + Good for no-prep drag racing
- + Warranty replacement honored
- − Unit reported faulty out of box
- − Technical support criticised
- − Runs warm without a fan
- − Some rating inconsistencies
