Herkules III 3-6s Brushless ESC - Hexa
Herkules brushless ESCs do not only stand out because of their quality "made in Germany", but also because of the extensive testing procedure. Each Herkules undergoes in-depth testing by experienced technicians, and failure during initial operation is almost eliminated via artificial ageing. According to the so-called "bathtub curve", most technical malfunctions occur shortly after startup and at the end of life of the device. With the burn-in test, these unexpected breakdowns can be avoided successfully!
100% High power burn-in test included!
- To ensure 100% functionality, each Herkules is stress-tested with a complex procedure prior to its delivery
- Performance test with up to 30A per motor (120A Quadro / 240A Octo)
- 4x/ 6x/ 8x AXI4120 with 15.5" propellers
- Increased operational reliability: Possibly faulty components can be recognized by means of "artificial ageing", which minimizes the risk of failure in your multicopter
Features tested:
- Reliability of the motor control
- Current measurement
- Temperature limitation
- Overcurrent protection
- Diagnosis feedback
"Herkules III" is the latest generation of Control Electronic for Brushless Direct Current Motors (BLDC).
The Design was significantly reworked. More Power, better self-protection and an updated firmware for perfect flight stability.
The speciality of Herkules is the integration of 4 identical very powerfull brushless controller on one PCB. This minimizes wiring effort, safes space an weight and increases the reliability.
Main focus in development was the "design to robustness" of powerstages. Only high quality components are used in this product.
