Compact and Cool Powerhouse!
Introducing the Talon 25, a compact and cool ESC designed for optimal performance in most 400-size helicopter setups and 3D foamies. Capable of handling up to 6S LiPo power or 25 amps in demanding situations, this ESC delivers exceptional reliability and power.
Despite its compact size, the Talon 25 features an impressive 8 amp peak/3 amp continuous BEC, ensuring smooth operation even with power-hungry servos. It comes equipped with Castle's industry-leading helicopter functions, providing advanced control and flexibility. Programming the Talon 25 is a breeze, thanks to the easy-to-use Castle Link USB adapter.
Upgrade your setup and experience the compact yet mighty performance of the Talon 25. Let its power and reliability take your 400-size helicopters and 3D foamies to new heights.
Features:
Power System Alerts:
The Talon ESCs are programmed to sound a number of tunes and codes using the motor as well as flashing LED patterns to alert users to certain conditions regarding their power system, such as over temperature, excessive load and locked head speed.
Telemetry Capable:
Telemetry has the potential not only to improve the safety of our models by monitoring battery voltages, ESC temperature, and other critical parameters, but it also creates other opportunities to get even more fun out of flying because you’ve essentially reduced the risks of “unknown” inevitable crashes. Think of the benefits to be had from alarms that will sound to warn you when there's interference about or if your receiver battery is running unexpectedly low. Requires purchase of Castle Telemetry Link for S.BUS2 (Item # 010-0152-00) and compatible Futaba Radio or Castle Telemetry Link for X-BUS (Item# 010-0148-00) and a compatible Spektrum Radio.
Programmability:
Fully programmable Castle feature set using Castle Link USB adapter and freely downloadable Castle Link Windows software or the Castle Link iOS App and a B-Link Bluetooth Adapter. ( A small subset of the settings available through Castle Link Windows software can be accessed via manual programming through the transmitter stick).
Firmware Upgrade:
Users will receive free access to all firmware updates, including added features sets using the Castle Link USB Programming Kit
Castle Link Compatible:
With the Castle Link USB Programming Kit you can use your Windows™ PC to easily program your controller. Castle Link includes all code for all Castle Link compatible hobby products in one convenient download. Note: Castle Link software requires a Castle Link USB Adapter and a computer that is running Windows. Castle Link is compatible with Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10. Macintosh users may take advantage of software such as Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, or Apple's Boot Camp along with Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10 to run the Castle Link software, provided the Macintosh has an Intel processor. Macintosh installation is not supported by Castle Creations.
