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

The HYDRA X 8S is based on Castle's popular and effective Mamba Monster X EIGHT. They have actually removed the air cooled heatsink and added a water-cooled heatsink. The final touch is an aluminum leading plate that provides it a sleek and polished appearance. Attached to the leading plate are two .17" aluminum water fittings and uses standard 10-32 UNF threads. The HYDRA X 8S is the ultimate improvement that propels high-performance monohulls, as much as 36 inches in length, to new heights.

CRYO-DRIVE, Castle's proprietary breakthrough innovation, integrates distinct software application to minimize heat and drastically increase efficiency. Thousands of times per second, the Hydra X 8S software application lessens the quantity of time the electrical components spend creating heat. The results are more power handling, cooler ESC temperatures and longer runtimes and ultra-high performance.

It's simple to call in ESC settings, upgrade ESC firmware and view information logs with Castle Link USB shows package (coupon for USB adapter consisted of 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 changes from a compatible transmitter via the Auxiliary wire. It's as simple as connecting the white signal wire to an open radio channel and enabling the function in Castle Link by selecting what Auxiliary function is preferred.
