Reds Racing is proud to announce the new TX2 speed controller for the 1/10 brushless class. It runs on 2S LiPo batteries and has a built-in BEC with 6.0V/7.4V voltage output. The new ESC comes with external power capacitors to maintain a compact design, a reliable external power switch and high-speed cooling fan. With High Grade and Low Resistance Components utilized throughout, the TX2 takes 1/10 scale competition racing to a new level.

Power, control and reliability remain the foundation of this ESC. Built with a custom high-efficiency aluminum heatsink housing and full programming, the TX2 provides the tools for the win!

What’s new?

Improved MOSFET's and a thicker PCB board. TX2 speed controller inner resistance has been lowered and the maximum current has been increased to 160A for better efficiency that increases performance and reliability.
New braking system that allows you to have a powerful and fluid braking (very linear).
New functions “Coast” and “Softening” that allow a driver to choose more ESC adjustments which improve performance and feel on the track.
We have introduced a new Micro USB port to update and adjust the new speed controller directly from a PC or through Reds Racing program box.
New built-in BEC with 6.0V/7.4V @ 6A voltage output.
New power on/off button located on the ESC unit improves reliability over the old model as there is no additional cable.
