Overview
The MAD FOC 60A 14S ESC is an advanced FOC (Field-Oriented Control) ESC designed for industrial UAV applications, supporting MAD X6, X8, and X10 motors. This ESC provides smooth sinusoidal drive modulation, ensuring fast throttle response, enhanced stability, and optimized energy efficiency. With support for up to 14S LiPo batteries and instant current capability of 60A, it is ideal for single-rotor drones with take-off weights of 1.5-12kg.
Built with comprehensive self-check features, robust protection mechanisms, and CAN communication, this ESC offers enhanced system reliability and real-time telemetry, making it an essential component for high-performance drone operations.
Key Features
- Fast Throttle Response: Optimized control algorithms enable rapid acceleration and deceleration, reaching throttle limits in just 10ms.
- Efficient Heat Dissipation: The double-sided heat dissipation design minimizes thermal resistance, ensuring the internal temperature stays within 15°C of the surface temperature for optimal operation.
- Advanced Protection System: Features blocking protection, short-circuit protection, overcurrent protection (150A limit), and PWM interference filtering, safeguarding the ESC and motor.
- Self-Diagnostic System: Automatically detects internal hardware faults, reducing failure risks and providing error feedback via LED indicators or software.
- CAN Communication & Data Logging: Enables firmware updates and real-time system monitoring, enhancing data accuracy for maintenance and post-flight analysis.
- Compact & Lightweight Design: Weighing only 28g (excluding cables), with a diameter of 70.7mm, it is optimized for minimal space consumption while delivering maximum power efficiency.

ESC Blinking Patterns & Beeping Sounds
The LED indicators and beeping sounds provide real-time status monitoring and troubleshooting:
| LED Indicator/Sound | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No throttle response after unlocking | PWM signal too low (<1100μs) | Increase throttle value to 1100μs - 1180μs |
| Beeping every 1.5s | Power-on self-test failure | Check throttle signal cable connection |
| Continuous beeping | High throttle detected at startup | Ensure throttle is at idle before power-on |
| Flashing yellow 4 times | Power loop disconnected | Check motor wiring and battery voltage |
| Alternating red & green | Missing PWM throttle signal | Verify PWM wiring connections |
