Product Description
The Overlander XP2 50A Brushless Speed Controller is a high-performance ESC designed for RC aircraft, delivering precise and reliable control. Fully compatible with Overlander’s Tornado Thumper motors, it is available in bare-lead and Ready-to-Fly (RTF) options. The RTF version is pre-fitted with 3.5mm gold connectors for the motor and a Deans connector for the battery, ensuring quick and secure installation. Ideal for a variety of RC aircraft, including sport planes, aerobatic models and gliders, where lightweight efficiency and steady power output are essential for prolonged, graceful flights.
With a continuous current rating of 50A and a burst current of 70A, this ESC provides exceptional power, making it ideal for sport planes, aerobatic models, and larger electric gliders. Compact at 60mm x 28mm x 8mm and weighing only 38g, it supports 2-4S LiPo batteries, offering great flexibility for various power setups. The XP2 50A is also compatible with the Overlander XP2 Program Card, enabling easy customisation of settings to suit your model’s specific needs.

Safety Information
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use. Ensure all connections are secure and insulated to prevent short circuits. Monitor ESC temperature during operation and avoid exceeding voltage or current ratings. Dispose of components responsibly in line with local regulations.
Please Note
The XP2 series is designed for RC aircraft. While reverse motor direction is supported, switching between forward and reverse during operation is not possible. For applications such as boats requiring quick directional changes, consider a marine ESC.
Top Tip
When using four or more servos, consider a separate receiver battery pack or upgraded UBEC to ensure consistent power delivery.
