can I use this esc with my castle creation 2400 kv 1/10 motor?

I believe so. The only limit I remember seeing is for 3s lipo max. But nothing on motor kv. Definitly get a fan for it

You must first have a brushless motor already in your Slash, which sounds like you do. You will also have to solder all the connectors, some of which will come separately. My advice is to speak with or email Dan at Kershaw designs. He sells this unit in a kit and can solder the right connectors for you. He can give you all the options. This ESC can do from 2s to 4s, and you must make sure your motor can handle what you decide to throw at it.

Yes, but be aware that you will want the castle link to hook it to a computer. Also, it's only rated for 80amps. You. May want to look at the 1:8 scale version. And make sure that you have batteries that can supply atleast 150a constant. Take" mah" x "C" rating, then divide by 1000 to find amperage capabilities.

Yes it can, I recently replaced my VXL esc with this one.. works like a charm.

NO!!! Not a good thing, it would damage your machine. You need either a converter or and electrician, neither are cheap. Suggest you return it if you have the option and purchase a 120volt unit, or sell it and do the same.

I'm not sure - never used it on anything other than 120V, but my guess is that it would not work or this could also result in damage to the motor.

all depends on your gearing if overgeared any motor will overheat with any battery . I run a castle 3800 kv and mamba max controller . never overheat

Yes. I have 5 of these esc's. I have one in my arduino quadcopter now. No issues at all. You just have to pay attention to wiring layout to motors.With arduino system there is a motor cycling part of the setup. get that correct and you are off and flying.

Top speed on Nimh is less than 10mph-15 I would estimate, the esc isn't rated to handle lipo batteries. At least the one that came in mine a year and a half ago.

I have used a 3s 1300 mah all the way up to a 3s 2200 mah battery with this motor and it performed admirably. My esc is a neewer 30a. The 20a esc will work but not for extended use. Almost any ground contact by the prop will surge the 20a with this motor and burn it out. The prop size really depends on the model. Being a 1000kv motor it does spin slower than a parkjet motor or the like. I have almost 15 hrs total flight time on this motor. I put. 9x6, 10x4 and a 11x5 on it. The 10x4 is where it got the best thrust without chewing through the battery quickly. The 9x6 gave me the best flight times and the 11x5 was awesome for 3d flight. It really depends on the weight of your aircraft. Hope this helps.

It probably will but and is way and under powered and will probably kill the esc couple runs. Hope this can help

I don't see why not. I have a 2 car garage so it's a 1/2 hp motor with a learning button. The electronics is the same regardless of unit size.

... that question would best be answered via Googling. or, You can read up on basic electronics .. or contact your local HAM radio operator. As for Castle ESCs, you can call them for a clear summary/explanation of your question. Dave

The esc can do 6s but the motor can only handle 3s. I even contacted castle on this. That is what it is. I'm not sure why they put these in a combo together.

You can. I recommend the castle thunderbird 54 controller and the himax HC3516-1130 motor it gives much better performance than the standard setup.

I'm not an expert on this, but I asked the same question before I bought 30a ESCs, and the supplier, who is an expert, said they will work fine. Likely, a 20a, he said, would work fine, but the 30a ESCs were about the same weight and price, so he suggested the extra capacity would be good insurance.

I haven't used it on that motor.. But this is a very simple ground switch and it is rated for 24v. The wires it is made with are very heavy duty. It will work on any trolling motor if installed properly.
