Wasp Controller
Wasp
The Wasp controller is a perfect match for the GEARS competition motor, or for any high performance application.
These light-weight, high performance Wasp's are perfect for powering brushed DC motors with continuous outputs in the 100-200 Watt range.

Your actual current capacity will vary based on the type of load, the length and size of wires, power supply capability and other factors.
Features Include:- Size: .65” x 1.85” x .44”
- Weight: 9.0 grams with servo lead installed
- Standard R/C pulse format
- Calibrate function to match unit to radio signal range. Settings retained in EEPROM non-volatile storage.
- 6.5V to 28V battery voltage (>20V requires an external 5V supply)
- Fully reversible H-bridge design. Equal power handling in both directions
- 10A continuous, 30A peak current
- Full current limiting and over temp limiting.
- Limit switch inputs to stop motion in one direction when closed. Motion is allowed in the other direction.
- Indicator LED for speed and direction of motor
- Status LED status information and mode indications
- Receiver battery eliminator circuit (BEC) standard – may be disabled. This can provide up to 100 mA of current at 5V to the RC receiver and other attached electronic circuits. (Must be de-rated for input voltage above 16V)
- Failsafe shuts off motor if R/C signal is lost
- FLASH-based microcontroller with upgradeable software via in-circuit programming header
- Ceramic oscillator (crystal) for stable operation at all temperatures
- Optional 4 position screw terminal may be user soldered to top or bottom of PCB for easy removal of battery and motor wires
- Capable of supporting I2C or serial command streams. Not supported by stock R/C software but user may replace the stock code if desired. Contact us if you would like to discuss custom software for your application.
