Flite Test FT 80A ESC w/XT-90 Connector
FLT-3065
This item is discontinued and no longer available for purchase. You may want to search our site for a similar item.
At Flite Test, we gave a lot of thought about what makes a great ESC. It's pretty simple really but a couple of things were important to us:
- Pre-Soldered Connector: We took the liberty of adding an XT-90 connector to make it a simple connection to your battery.
- Pre-Soldered 4mm Bullet Connectors: This makes attaching to our FT Radial Motors a breeze. We suggest using the FT 80A ESC with the 4030 Radial Brushless motor.
- 5v / 5amp BEC: We like a BEC on our speed controllers because it allows you to power lower voltage demand accessories without having a second battery on board.
- Accessory Cable: The JST- PH-2.0 connector provides an easy connection to full battery voltage (3S to 6S) to power your accessories. Note: this is not a regulated power source! Full battery voltage is supplied at this connector!

Flite Test FT 80A ESC w/XT-90 Connector
This ESC does not disappoint. It's much smaller and lighter than most 80A 6S capable ESCs, making it perfect for 70mm EDF applications. In fact, in a back-to-back test with 'another' 85A ESC with the same 70mm EDF, the fan delivered more thrust with the FT Monster ESC than the 'other' one! Also, it says it's good for 4S-6S, but I can confirm that it will also handle up to 8S IN FLIGHT, under load! Obviously you have to prop-down and match your prop and motor, but as for voltage it can take it. It won't be "officially" endorsed for 8S by FT, but I know the truth. :D
Thanks Flite Test for a great ESC! Putting another one in my basket right now. :)
