Overview
The MAD AMPX FOC 60A ESC is a Field-Oriented Control (FOC) electronic speed controller designed for industrial UAV applications. It supports 8-14S LiPo batteries, making it suitable for single rotors with a takeoff weight of up to 7kg. With FOC sinusoidal drive, it delivers smoother, quieter, and more efficient motor performance while reducing electromagnetic interference.
This ESC is customized for different motor and propeller combinations, requiring specific firmware settings. If no motor and propeller details are provided at purchase, the default firmware will be pre-installed. Firmware upgrade guidance can be found in the product description section.
Key Features
- Supports 8-14S LiPo Batteries – Wide input range for high-power drones.
- FOC Sinusoidal Drive – Efficient, low-noise, and high-precision motor control.
- Fast Throttle Response – Rapid acceleration and deceleration within 10ms.
- Optimized Heat Dissipation – Dual-sided heat dissipation reduces thermal resistance.
- Integrated Hardware Self-Check – Detects circuit defects and prevents failures.
- Comprehensive Protection – Includes short circuit, over-current, over-voltage, and temperature protection.
- CAN Communication Interface – Enables real-time ESC monitoring and firmware updates.
- IPX7 Waterproof Rating – Ensures durability in harsh environments.
Protection Mechanisms
- Short Circuit Protection – Prevents internal damage from electrical faults.
- Over-Current Protection – Ensures the ESC operates within safe power limits.
- Over-Voltage & Under-Voltage Protection – Prevents damage from improper battery voltage.
- Temperature Protection – Reduces power output if internal temperature exceeds safety limits.
- PWM Signal Loss Protection – Cuts power in case of throttle signal loss.
