Spektrum Firma 160 Amp Sensorless Brushless Smart ESC & Motor Combo, with included 1250Kv motor. Like every component in the Spektrum Smart ecosystem, Firma Smart ESCs combine "plug-and-play" simplicity with the ability to communicate with other Spektrum Smart electronics.

Firma Smart ESCs do much more than regulate power. They function like a virtual engineer inside your model, providing a direct path to the vital operating data you need to reach peak performance. Firma Smart ESCs give you an extra layer of confidence that your electronics are all operating at their best.

With Firma Smart ESCs, you'll be better connected to your vehicle than ever before — without installing extra components that all work independently of each other. You won't need extra wires, modules, or links. A Firma electronic speed control provides a one-wire solution for obtaining telemetry data such as RPM, temperature, battery voltage and capacity*. Firma ESCs not only gather the data, but also send it to your Smart compatible transmitter in real time, allowing the ability to adjust settings as needed to boost performance on the go.

This ESC comes bundled with a Spektrum Firma 1250Kv Brushless Motor capable of handling everything this ESC can put out that is a perfect to get you driving with Spektrum Smart technology.

*NOTE: Smart functionality requires use of Spektrum Smart compatible battery, transmitter and receiver.

Spektrum RC Firma 160 Amp Sensorless Brushless Smart ESC & Motor Combo (1250Kv)
Had good luck with the first one of these, so I bought a second one. Wasn’t so lucky this time. Installed it in the truck, took off, truck started bucking, then stopped. Flashing red light and won’t move. ESC smells burnt.

Return process was very easy with A-main, and customer service was excellent as always, but I’m super disappointed that my truck is going to be down for a week and a half while I wait for my store credit. I wish there was a faster way.

Bought these esc combo to start with for my kraton exb 8s and seems to have enough power. Might pick up an 1100kv or 780kv motor if this heats up with the set up I’m running. I will find out when it gets warmer out. Other than that seems fine and 50+ mph 25t pinion with the stock spur.

Spektrum RC Firma 160 Amp Sensorless Brushless Smart ESC & Motor Combo (1250Kv)
A little bit of disappointment. The motor fan failed just after a couple of runs. And I almost didn't get a help from Amain Hobbies. When I was telling the problem to Amain, I was told they can't help me and rather I need to call Horizon Hobby to file a claim. What kind of support is that?. I tod them that I probably buy to Horizon Hobby next time instead of buying from Amain. Then suddenly the representative told me he can send me a motor fan at no charge. Well it seems my trust to Amain will come back.
