Overview
The Hobbywing Platinum 150A V5.1 is a brushless ESC (electronic speed controller) designed for 520-580 class electric helicopters (main blade length 520-580 mm) and fixed-wing models. It supports 3-8S LiPo input and integrates a built-in switch-mode BEC with adjustable output voltage.
Key Features
- Synchronous rectification technology (DEO - Driving Efficiency Optimization) for faster throttle response, higher driving efficiency, and lower ESC temperature rise.
- Built-in 12V switch BEC (programmable): maximum output voltage 12V, 5-12V adjustable.
- 32-bit processor with RPM accuracy algorithm; includes adjustable constant speed sensitivity (as stated in product materials).
- Heat sink design uses craft airflow for external and internal cooling; double-sided hollow heat-dissipation structure with side “window” design and air-duct design (as stated in product materials).
- Telemetry/data return support: Mikado VBar; Futaba S.Bus2; etc. (for remote parameter adjustment and ESC status checking, as stated in product materials).
- Protection functions (as stated in product materials): start-up protection, current protection, temperature protection, overload protection, throttle signal loss protection, input voltage abnormality protection.
