Garry Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 HPI Racing introduce the Flux Reload V2 brushless speed controller. The waterproof ESC is fully programmable, waterproof and suitable for 3S/11.1V LiPo input. This makes it an ideal upgrade for RTR controllers in order to fit more powerful option motors. The controller offer three running modes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yrkoon Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Is this a new version then ? yep looks like it i have the version 1 one in my thunder tiger xxt with a reload 4300kv motor and it neither accepts 3s or handles water so im guessing thats the improvements on the v2 one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emailiscrap Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I've got one and the jury is still out as to whether or not it is actually waterproof. If my new ESC works in the car properly then the waterproof claims are not accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yrkoon Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) Ive run 35a Ezrun on 3s loads of time, including the HPI Branded one in the old Bullet Flux ah kool the manual i got for my v1 esc only said 2s, so im guessing it handles 3s then? hehe the thunder tiger xxt is pretty mad with the v1 controller and 4300kv motor on 2s its a whole 1000kv faster than the system that came with it (one i got with xxt is in my xl5 bandit) i would be frightened if it took 3s yep it is the same esc and motor the stock bullet comes with, goes nuts in the smaller xxt though, stupid manual made me think it wouldnt handle 3s Edited March 30, 2012 by Yrkoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si Coe Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 The esc will take 3S, but the fan on the V1 won't. You need to replace or modify the way the fan is wired for 3S use. The big improvement on the V2 is simply the use of a 12V fan! Likewise the first version was 'splashproof' but its been properly sealed now so they are calling it 'waterproof'.
