The Turnigy Monster-2000 is a high-performance Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) that has been revolutionized by its advanced microprocessor technology. This cutting-edge component, based on an all new powerful microprocessor, brings about significant improvements in performance and reliability compared to older models. Here are some key features and benefits of the Turnigy Monster-2000:
1. **Ultra Fast Sync Timing**: The new CPU ensures ultra-fast sync timing, which translates into a more responsive throttle response for your brushless motor. This is crucial for minimizing lag and getting the most out of your electric aircraft or vehicle setup.
2. **Extremely Low Resistance**: With an extremely low resistance design, the Turnigy Monster-2000 allows for smoother operation under high load conditions. This means that it can handle demanding tasks more efficiently, extending the overall lifespan of both the ESC and the motor.
3. **High Voltage Overheat Protection**: The inclusion of high voltage overheat protection ensures that your ESC does not suffer from overheating issues even when working at peak performance. This is particularly important for motors running on higher voltages like those used in electric aircraft or vehicles.
4. **200A Continuous (230A Surge)**: Capable of delivering a continuous current of 200A and with a surge capacity up to 230A, the Turnigy Monster-2000 is designed for extreme performance in R/C planes and helicopters. This high current output allows you to use motors that are typically more powerful than what other ESCs can handle.
5. **Programmable Options**: The Turnigy Monster-2000 offers a variety of programmable settings, including low voltage cutoff, different types of brake (disable, soft brake, hard brake), time advance, current limiting (sensitive, standard, insensitive, disable), and governor mode (low rpm governor, high rpm governor). These features provide extensive customization for various flight conditions and motor types.
6. **Thermal Protection**: Equipped with thermal protection that kicks in at 100 degrees Celsius, the ESC is safeguarded against overheating, which can be a common issue with powerful motors when used in conjunction with certain ESCs.
7. **Adaptive Work Mode**: The Turnigy Monster-2000 automatically adapts its work mode based on the type of motor being used (inrunner or outrunner). This simplifies the setup process and ensures optimal performance without complex programming.
8. **Safe Power On Arming Program**: Ensures that the motor will not accidentally turn on unless intended, which adds an extra layer of safety to your R/C flying experience.
9. **Automatic Shutdown and Restart**: The ESC automatically shuts down during severe radio interference or when the signal is lost for more than 3 seconds. It can be restarted by moving the throttle to the lowest position after re-establishing the radio connection.
10. **Voltage Limitation at Power On**: To prevent accidental high voltage usage, the Turnigy Monster-2000 disables itself if it detects a voltage above 51V during power on.
The Turnigy Monster-2000 is designed for use with most inrunner and outrunner brushless motors, making it versatile for various electric aircraft and vehicle setups. Its user-friendly design does not require complex programming, further simplifying the setup process for beginners and experienced users alike. With all these features, the Turnigy Monster-2000 represents a significant advancement in ESC technology that caters to high-performance R/C applications.
