Overview

The MAD AMPX 40A (5-14S) Drone ESC is a high-voltage electronic speed controller designed for powerful drone applications. Supporting 5-14S LiPo (16V-64V), it ensures high efficiency and reliability for large industrial, agricultural, and high-performance FPV drones. The AMPX 40A V2.0 introduces CAN communication, real-time telemetry, and dual throttle control (RPM + CAN) for enhanced precision and safety.

Key Features

• Supports 5-14S LiPo (16V-64V): Wide voltage range for high-power drone applications.
• Quick Response: Accelerates from start to full speed in just 0.25 seconds.
• IPX4 Protection: Enhanced water and dust resistance.
• Synchronous Freewheeling Technology: Improves throttle linearity, driving efficiency, and automatic energy recovery.
• Short Circuit, Overload, and Stall Protection: Ensures safe operation in all conditions.

V2.0 Enhanced Features

• Dual Throttle Control (RPM + CAN): Provides real-time control and accuracy.
• Firmware Upgradeable: Keeps the ESC updated with latest features and improvements.
• Unlimited Automatic Restart on Overload: Enhances system stability.
• CAN Communication: Enables real-time monitoring of voltage, current, temperature, and operational status.

Specifications

Protection Functions

• Short Circuit Protection: Shuts down output in case of a short circuit.
• Stall Protection: Stops motor operation if a stall is detected.
• Voltage Protection: Emits an alarm if the battery voltage falls below 16V or exceeds 64V.
• Temperature Protection: Reduces power output if the temperature exceeds 125°C; fully shuts down at 140°C.
• Throttle Loss Protection: Cuts power if the throttle signal is lost for more than 2 seconds.
• Startup Protection: Shuts down if the motor is not started within 10 seconds of increasing throttle.

Installation & Usage

• Throttle Calibration Required: Ensures smooth operation and precise throttle response.
• Motor Wiring Diagram Included for proper connection setup.

Recommended Upgrade

For better stability and real-time telemetry, the AMPX 40A V2.0 with CAN communication is highly recommended.
