XERUN XR8 PRO G3

The Hobbywing XR8 PRO G3 is a high-end electronic speed controller (ESC) designed for competitive 1/8 scale RC racing, offering excellent performance and durability. It’s particularly suitable for on-road and off-road applications where advanced features like turbo timing, high current capacity, and robust design are critical for performance on the track. The G3 version builds on its predecessors with improved control, power output, and thermal management, making it a top choice for serious racers.

Key Features of the Hobbywing XR8 PRO G3:

1. Advanced Turbo and Boost Timing:

   • The XR8 PRO G3 offers customizable boost and turbo timing functions, allowing for increased speed on straightaways without compromising handling and control in corners. This feature is crucial for extracting the maximum performance from your motor during competitive races.

2. Full Sensored Mode:

   • The ESC operates in full sensored mode, which allows for ultra-smooth power delivery and precise throttle control, especially important for 1/8 scale cars that demand a lot of power and accuracy.

3. High Current Capacity:

   • The XR8 PRO G3 can handle a continuous current of 200A, with a peak current of 1080A, which makes it suitable for high-powered 1/8 scale motors that require significant power draw during intense racing conditions.

4. Adjustable BEC:

   • The built-in BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit) is highly adjustable, offering output options of 6V, 7.4V, and 8.4V with a continuous current of 6A. This flexibility is ideal for powering high-torque servos and other power-hungry onboard electronics.

5. Durable, Rugged Design:

   • The XR8 PRO G3 is built to withstand the rigors of high-speed, high-power racing. Its durable construction, advanced thermal management, and waterproof design ensure that it can handle harsh racing environments, whether on-road or off-road.

6. Real-Time Data Logging:

   • Like other high-end Hobbywing ESCs, the XR8 PRO G3 features data logging capabilities, allowing racers to monitor motor temperature, current draw, and RPM in real-time. This is essential for fine-tuning performance and ensuring that the ESC and motor are operating efficiently.

7. Efficient Heat Dissipation:

   • The ESC is designed with an advanced cooling system, including a highly efficient fan and large heat sink, ensuring optimal heat dissipation even under heavy loads. This keeps the ESC performing at peak efficiency during long races and in hot conditions.

8. IP67 Waterproof Rating:

   • The XR8 PRO G3 is rated IP67, making it fully waterproof and dustproof. This gives racers peace of mind when competing in wet or dusty conditions, whether on an off-road dirt track or on-road courses where the weather can be unpredictable.

9. Wide Compatibility with 2S to 6S LiPo:

   • This ESC is compatible with 2S to 6S LiPo batteries, offering flexibility depending on your motor setup and racing needs. This wide input voltage range makes it suitable for various 1/8 scale racing applications, from lower-speed precision racing to high-speed drag or off-road racing.

10. Multiple Programmable Features:

    • Racers can adjust settings such as punch, drag brake, and brake force via the Hobbywing LCD Program Box or OTA Bluetooth module, making it easy to fine-tune the ESC based on specific track conditions and personal preferences.

11. RPM Limit Mode:

    • The XR8 PRO G3 includes an RPM limit mode, useful for classes with speed restrictions. This feature ensures that racers stay within regulated speeds, helping maintain compliance with racing rules.
