Welcome to the next generation of high voltage brushless speed controls from Castle Creations. We invented this class, Castle Phoenix HV series are the gold standard. Now we are raising the bar. Phoenix ICE HV controllers offer incredible reliability and flexibility for your high powered applications. Now available in 40, 60, 80 and 160 amp configurations, with more on the way.
Heli users are raving about the performance of Castle's programmable helicopter modes which include options to directly enter desired governed head speeds as numerical values! Every heli power combination requires slightly varying governor gains, Castle makes these easy to tweak and the net result is a rock solid tail.
Advanced users will find the incredible programmability of the Phoenix Ice allows for performance characteristics tailored exactly to their desires.
Data Logging
Ice brings another incredibly useful feature, extensive data logging capabilities. The controllers are able to measure and record many parameters at sample rates that you choose between 10 samples per second and 1 sample per second. This data is stored directly in the controller and may be accessed once the run is over using the Castle Link USB adapter (sold separately) and Castle Link software (available free at castlecreations.com). The Max Log Size is 21,504 bytes, everything takes one byte except for motor rpm which takes two.
Castle Creation ICE data logging feature:
- Battery Voltage, Ripple and Current
- Controller Temperature
- Controller Input Throttle
- Controller Motor Power Output
- Motor RPM
