The Next Generation Drive ESC has Arrived with WEKA!
Perfect for DartBox Drive gearmotors and any other brushed ant or beetle drive solution! The WEKA has been developed from the ground up to solve many problems experienced by beginners in robot combat. Still, its minuscule size and weight make it the best choice for even pro bot builders and all kinds of projects. At a fraction the size and weight of competing options, just 3 grams without wires, but a full 20 amps per channel of robot driving power, this is the premier ESC for RC, robotics, or any other size and weight-constrained hobby project.
This lightweight ESC can power two independent DartBox gearmotors for a powerful, nimble robot drivetrain (or even four or more motors in some applications). The WEKA has overcurrent protection and undervoltage protection built in unlike many cheaper ESC designs, meaning you won’t burn up your pricey ESC in the heat of battle, or kill a battery needlessly, and are less likely to damage your motors. If you have heard buzzing sounds or seen jitter with cheaper motor controllers, built-in filter capacitors should make that a thing of the past.
