Overview
The MAD AMPX 150A HV ESC is a high-performance electronic speed controller (ESC) designed for 12-24S lithium battery systems. It supports a continuous current of 150A, features IP67 waterproof protection, and integrates CAN communication for real-time flight control data transmission. With dual throttle control (RPM + CAN) and firmware upgradability, this ESC delivers superior efficiency and precision for UAV applications.
Key Features
- High Power Support: Operates on 12-24S LiPo with a 150A continuous current rating.
- Ultra-Fast Response: Achieves full speed in just 0.60 seconds.
- Optimized for Disc Motors: Utilizes a special control algorithm for better stability and performance.
- Synchronous Freewheeling Technology: Enhances throttle linearity, energy efficiency, and automatic recovery.
- Dual Throttle Control: Supports PWM analog throttle + CAN digital throttle, prioritizing CAN throttle.
- Real-Time CAN Communication: Provides voltage, current, temperature, and operational status updates.
- Upgradeable Firmware: Ensures long-term performance optimization.
- Overload Protection: Enables unlimited automatic restart for uninterrupted performance.
- Fully Isolated Control Signals: Improves safety by separating control signals and power supply.
- Convenient Installation: Features pre-drilled mounting holes for flexible setup.
Protection Functions
- Short Circuit Protection: Automatically shuts down output; manual power cycle required for recovery.
- Stall Protection: Resets throttle to zero when a motor stall is detected, restoring normal operation.
- Voltage Protection: Issues an alarm if voltage falls below 40V or exceeds 105V.
- Temperature Protection: Reduces output at 125°C, shuts down at 140°C, and restores operation at 80°C.
- Throttle Loss Protection: Cuts power if no throttle signal is detected for over 2 seconds.
- Startup Protection: Prevents ESC shutdown if the motor fails to start within 10 seconds.
