Overview
ZTW Gecko 65A ESC with 8A SBEC with XT-60 Connector - ZTW4065201
This ZTW Gecko series ESC is a high-quality, efficient brushless electronic speed control with an integrated switch-mode BEC. It can operate without the need for a separate receiver battery to power your servos and receivers saving you weight and simplifying your electronic connections. The Gecko series includes an aluminum heat sink body which is lightweight and helps dissipate heat more efficiently. The BEC on the Gecko has been specifically designed to support higher current applications to eliminate the possibility of unwanted shutdowns, and it is also capable of supporting simultaneous multiple servo operations typically found in large-scale airplanes and CCPM equipped large-scale 3D helicopters. If you are looking for a top of the line, full-featured ESC at a competitive price, the ZTW Gecko is the logical choice.
Features:
- Data logging system such as temperature, voltage, current, and RPM
- SBEC Voltage Output 5.0, 6.0, 7.4, and 8.4V
- Advanced Governor Mode and soft start
- High SBEC Current Output, continuous 8A and burst 16A, designed to meet your high current applications
- Power arm protection, over-heat protection, low-voltage protection and lost-signal protection
- Secondary sub-menu setting by the LCD program card or your PC
- Super smooth and accurate throttle linearity
- Support for most motors, including high RPM motors
- Programmable motor timing
- Utilizes new smaller MOSFET technology to minimize weight
- Aluminum finned heat sink

IMO they feel a lot like a Castle the way it connects you to the stick. Easy to use and program using the card. Have not had any issues with any of them, I've been using them for last 6 years

If you keep your watts within the ESC’s range, you will have no problems. If you over watt them,they will burn out just like all the other brands.

I like the effective exposed to the air heat sink and the ease of programming with the available programming box or card. As long as you keep the watt consumption within the limits of the motor, this ESC will more than handle the situation. Often, when going to 4s, you will need to downsize the prop to keep the motor operating efficiently and not producing too much heat. Heat is lost motive force. The motor should land just slightly warm, ESC and battery also just slightly warm. Then you know that you are in the “power band” that is correct for your setup without getting into the weeds of Watts, Amps, and Volts.
