Castle Creations Hydra X 8S, 33.6V Esc, 8A Peak Bec

The HYDRA X eight is based upon Castle's popular and powerful Mamba Beast X 8S. They have actually eliminated the air cooled heatsink and added a water-cooled heatsink. The final touch is an aluminum top plate that provides it a smooth and sleek appearance. Connected to the top plate are two .17" aluminum water fittings and utilizes basic 10-32 UNF threads. The HYDRA X eight is the supreme improvement that propels high-performance monohulls, as much as 36 inches in length, to new heights.

CRYO-DRIVE, Castle's proprietary breakthrough technology, integrates special software to reduce heat and significantly increase performance. Thousands of times per second, the Hydra X eight software lessens the quantity of time the electrical components spend creating heat. The outcomes are more power handling, cooler ESC temperatures and longer runtimes and ultra-high performance.

It's easy to call in ESC settings, update ESC firmware and view data logs with Castle Link USB shows set (coupon for USB adapter included with purchase) and a Windows PC, or wirelessly with the convenience of the new B-Link Bluetooth Adapter and Castle Link app for Android or iOS. Additional tuning flexibility is offered with on-the-fly modifications from a compatible transmitter via the Auxiliary wire. It's as easy as linking the white signal wire to an open radio channel and enabling the function in Castle Link by selecting what Auxiliary function is preferred.
