HV_Pro 14S

The HV_Series 14S ESC can deliver 240 A of continuous current with a burst current capability of 360 A. These ESCs have over 4 x the Silicon Junction area compared to other similar-sized ESCs.

Operating within a 32-bit ARM architecture, the ESC is designed to deliver fast throttle response that is linear over the complete output range of up to 20 kW. APD's proprietary developed firmware ensures unmatched low-throttle and starting characteristics. The ramp characteristics can be configured for fast response or drive-train protection. Advanced features include PWM-frequency dithering to avoid PWM-commutation synchronisation, adaptive motor timing advance and proprietary developed Active Phase-Current Demagnetisation (APCD). APCD along with Synchronous rectification ensure maximum ESC efficiency is achieved.

  • Designed and manufactured in Australia using only the highest quality components, ensuring no sacrifice in reliability.

  • Aerospace-grade ceramic capacitor bank for lowest possible ESR and maximum reliability, resulting in a virtually limitless MTBF.

  • Multiple operation modes.

NDAA/DFARS-compliant options available upon request.

Normal Mode

  • Normally used for watercraft and aircraft not requiring reverse.

  • Incremental + Linear power ramp control.

Multirotor Mode

  • Instantaneous input = Output Step Response.

Heli Mode

  • Soft-start for drivetrain protection.

Traction Mode

  • Same as normal except for active torque control, which applies a motor phase current limit that ramps proportionally with higher motor duty cycles.
