Turnigy® TRUST SBEC ESC's have a very flexible and broadly capable MCU, able to run all types of brushless motors.The large heatsink and simple PCB layout make heat dissapation consistant, enabling the ESC to be run at it's limit, without failure. The ESC is program-card and transmitter programmable with clear and easy to understand instructions included.

Has any one experienced brown outs when using one of these with an orange RX receiver? Lost my plane today after suffering a brown out at the top of a vertical climb on WOT. Fail safe appears to have kicked in(slight up elevator with no throttle) but not many settings are going to save a plane just after it's stalled vertically about 100 feet off the ground!
I was running a Turnigy 2826 2200KV motor with an APC 7x4 prop and Turnigy 3S 2200mAh 45C battery. The setup used to peak at about 43A so limit WOT to short bursts only.
I've had the occasional blinking receiver or satellite LED after landing but never a total loss of control. Use same ESC, Orange RX receiver and battery with a much lower power motor on a Bixler 2 with no issue hence this leads me to suspect the power supply to the RX unit was not up to scratch.
ESC and motor were luke warm upon checking after the crash.
My scratch built aerobatic however (about 30 hours worth), didn't fair as well. Been pretty happy with Trust ESCs and the Orange RX series until now so suspect my set up may have issues?
Very nice and sturdy ESC with large heatsinks...
I have not experienced any brownouts with this ESC and 3536 500W motor with my Spektrum rx...no signal failures...
Your motor may be rated to 500W but if you have a small propeller on it chances are it's pulling under 34A. Conversly if you've gone larger than the recommended prop you will be pulling over 34A.
Spent some time testing the electronics today and found elevator servo faulty. Intermittently locks at about 20deg of up, and failure mode appears to be an internal short that is enough to interupt the receiver's signal (get blinking LED on rx or satellite) and in some cases loads the ESC to point where rx voltage sags causing system brown out. So looks like Trust ESC is off the hook, and my Hexatronic 9g servo is headed for the bin, along with the rest of the plane.
Has anyone put the simonk firmware on these? They have an ATMEGA MCU and N-fets so it seems like their performance has the potential for big improvements.
Has anyone used this esc in a boat or car? I am building a boat using this Turnigy®* TRUST SBEC ESC's and a Turnigy XK2845-B-2800KV Brushless Inrunner motor. The transmitter is a trigger actuated center off Tower Hobbies 224 2.4GHz 2-Channel Spread Spectrum Radio System. I am having problems setting up the throttle so the motor stops in the center and reverses as I push the trigger past center. Can someone help me with some setup instructions that work?
here are the dimensions of mine,
Total length(wires outstretched)= 25cm
length of esc only= 8cm
width = 2.8cm
height=1.6cm
please credit if it was helpful
Wire to motor.
I am new to electrics and I bought one of these ESCs. It has three black wires to the motor. They are labeled "A", "B", "C". The motor wires are yellow, black, and red. I have asked Hoobyking repeatedly to tell me which black wire goes to what colored wire but I am not getting an answer. Can anyone fill me in. Also, if I start stabbing around blindly trying different combinations, will I ruin someting?
Bought this esc and programming card to replace the stock one in my Phoenix 2000 glider.
Could not get this to run the outrunner motor in the glider without massive stuttering at anything lower than 50 % throttle.
I tried all combinations of timing, acceleration , frequency and none of then stopped the stuttering. All connections were good and no electrical interference. I had also purchased a 30 amp deluxe controller. Ended up using this and it worked perfectly first time on same exact setup. So now I have a nice 45 amp paper weight. Not very happy.
Anybody can use this esc for helicopter. ..used in idle mode?. Here you need slow acceleration (step by step) when you switch to max throttle immediately.. like align esc...which can set to reach highest speed for 10 sec or slower. See "slow start rc heli" videos
No this cannot be used for heli as...at low throttle upto about 25% it does not respond or...simply the motor does not run...
But even if you set slow acceleration using ESC programming card. it is not highly responsive at low throttle..
I tried to program with radio the soft start of this ESC for 450 heli 2215 typhoon brushless. It star only 1 sec with soft speed than immediately swith highest speed. Do you have any solution, how to program very slow start for heli?
put timming to medium and put the jumper on low acceleration should work if your using the card to program i think not sure you can do it through throtle. so there is a low and high aceleration also besides timming .hope this can help
Thanks. what does it mean low acceleration for you. I used the manual of this esc to program. .i want to achieve to give speed step by step when i switch to max throttle. Heli needs slow start up.
ok you can do this with the transmitter so option 4 in manual is low high acceleration or called on others slow start and option 6 is timming auto medium high.how long it takes to react to cotrols i set mine high but helli set medium on this and low acceleration look under files again just at the right above question theres a manual.
Thanks to try me help. I will try it. But i ve already used manual and set 4. step to "low". Do you think medium timing and low acceleration will provide sstep by step slow acceleration. Now its s reach highest speed within 2sec
try auto and low thats it or it wont do it use the set you did but you control throtle up slow. i have the card i see no options mybe change switching frequency from 16 to 8 cut timing in half? not sure good luck.
what if you use a ESC that is larger than necessary? I'm thinking of buying this ESC as a spare,which I may use with a smaller motor like a park 480 or a larger one
hello, I can not program the esc, the motor is good consecutive beeps when accelerate, since the inverted channel in tx and still have the same problem, I auditioned with the esc of 55A and the same thing happens, only the engine is vibrating, please someone help me?
Can you explain more...connect the battery to the ESC with the throttle at high and now the ESC beeps incaing the settings mode and as per the manual set the appropriate settings using the throttle stick.make the throttle low to save a setting.
Also wanted to confirm if it had the correct plug for the OrangeRx6ch as well?? I need to make sure I order everything right so I dont have to wait longer to build my heli.
Thanks
yes it will do fine. my son has two he swares by them and has blown others but we have never had a problem with these they really work great! i highly recomend this one. flys one 80mm over 100mph great response on throtle great programing featurs i love this one. ps we are currently running 4800kv 4s on the dpanther jet by the wing maker company. flys veryvery nice can fly on 10 percent throtle awsome glide.
oh yes very nice! that way you can carry the extra weight and with that i think it is rated up to 4s and i have heard of people using 4s when given the right esc but i am stickin with 3s . like you i upped mine to 40amp/5ampsbec and replaced the servos in my raptor with metel gear servos since many people were breaking there servos on the first flight. i will be using the fatshark and the ark bird. hope its a long summer:) happy flying, tommy
Yes but i would recomend the Hobby King YEP 45A ESC. it has more features aimed for helis with a super soft start. This is the way to go, this is what has been recomended to me too over the Turnigy TRUST
SBEC ,UBEC are highly efficent than BEC...
so the there will be less power loss in converting the higher voltage to 5V...
Choose a SBEC or UBEC ESC for high current consumption servos connected....results in high flying times...
check the accessories tab for the programming card..
I bought the programming card but the programming card is a waste....
The programming can be made direclty from Tx...
Hey all...i really like these trust esc´*s..i already use a couple of 55 amp for planes....can anyone tell me if they have used these for a quad set-up and if they are or would be good for this use? thanks in advance...would be using 28-22 or 35-30 turnigy motors.
For quads there are special ESC because these ESC have low response and accuracy...but the ESCs designed for quads are high in accuracy and response...better choose a ESC designed specially for quad..
I'm using two of this in a twin. I disconnected the positive wire on the esc that runs in reverse. I have done this on many twins I have. I've always had some jitter on the reverse motor at start up but this set up seems to have more than usual.
Did I mess up on this one by disconnecting the positive wire on the esc?
No. You do need to disconnect the positive (red) wire for on of the motors. Try adjusting the timing on the offending ESC. There should not be any jitter.
Mike,
I assume you omitted (/disconnected) the red wire in the 3-wire connector going to the receiver? The battery power wires must be all connected (in parallel / Y).
why is mine not letting me program thru my transmitter? i follow the instructions, full throttle, hear three beeps, putt throttle dwn nothing. it wont even spool up for me to test my motor direction.
Before powering the ESC , power ON Tx with full throttle. You will hear three beeps , once you hear it reduce the throttle to lowest and now you hear beeps. now you have set the range for your throttle.
Not sure why they have a finned heat sink with plastic over it, as it kind of defeats the purpose of the fins. I cut the plastic off (see pic), as that should in theory drop the operating temp significantly...

¿*NADIE SE A DADO CUENTA DE QUE ESTE VARIADOR ENTREGA QUE MENOS POTENCIA QUE CUALQUIER OTRO? HE COMPARADO MISMO MOTOR, MISMA HELICE ,MISMA BATERIA , PERO CON VARIADORES DIFERENTES Y ESTE ES,CON DIFERENCIA ,EL QUE MENOS POTENCIA ENTREGA? ALGUIEN SABE DARME LA EXPLICACION. GRACIAS
I need the photo of this ESC with the parts that it came with....? Does it come with a 3.5 mm female bullet connector?? Does it come with battery wire with connector (or) battery wire alone (or) none of them ....
I tried to program with radio the soft start of this ESC for 450 heli 2215 typhoon brushless. It star only 1 sec with soft speed than immediately swith highest speed. Do you have any solution, how to program very slow start for heli?
Could I use this esc on my edf( changesun 10 blade and a cyclone 3700 motor ? Got it laying around . If not guess I will be putting in my 100 delux esc
cant get int programing mode using tx. move throtlle up and then power on the esc, wait 5 seconds or more but no tones. if I move the throttle down the esc beeps and arms. Any idea what thw problem may be?
verbaut in einem hk450 in kombination mit dem E500 motor und einem 3S, 2200mAh, 20C akku.
- einfach zu programmieren - sanftanlauf sollte mit eigener gaskurve bewerkstelligt werden - wird ziemlich hei, luft bislang jedoch ohne komplikationen
installed in hk450 in combination with e500 engine and 3S, 2200mAh, 20C lipo
- easy programming - soft start to be accomplished with own throttle curve - gets hot, but runs without problems so far
With a Turnigy 35-36 1400kv motor, a 10x5e apc prop, and 5000mah 3s lipo the ESC hit 210 degrees F in less than a minute at full throttle! yes, you read that right... 210 degrees Fahrenheit!! In this same span, the motor hit 100 degrees F and the battery barely got to 80 degrees F.
It melted the heat shrink right off the ESC. Oh, and there is no "heat sink" as there is shown in the picture. Only a thin metal plate. This ESC might be ok for low-amp usage, but if you even come close to the rated amperage, it will get way too hot and begin to shut down.
On the plus side, even with this extreme heat, the ESC hasn't smoked. It still runs.
