Vertex 3D/4D ESC 17A Reversible (Switchable)

Vertex Series 17A 3D/4D ESC – Precision Performance

The Vertex Series ESC delivers top-tier 3D and 4D performance, effortlessly switching modes with a simple side switch. Pre-programmed and plug-and-play, it’s optimized for 1950KV Vertex motors with BLHeli_S software pre-installed.

Designed for EPP models (22"-37"), it supports 2S-3S LiPo setups with 1500-2000KV motors. Reverse spool speed is fine-tuned to reduce cogging, ensuring smooth operation. (BLHeli software adjustments are possible but not supported.)

⚠️ Caution: Reverse thrust can stress motor mounts and airframes. Best suited for models 7 oz or lighter to prevent performance issues.

Specifications:

• Current: 17A continuous / 25A burst (10 sec)
• Input: 2S-4S LiPo
• BEC: 5V/3A Switch BEC
• PWM: 8k-16k
• Size: 25x13x5mm
• Weight: 11.5g
• Connectors: Female JST & 2mm bullet (plug-and-play with small outrunners)

Recommended Setups:

3D Flight:

• 8" Prop + 3S LiPo
• 9" Prop + 2S LiPo

4D Flight: (Reversing speed depends on voltage & prop selection. Lighter, lower-thrust props reverse faster.)

• APC 4D Grey (5.5mm hub, 8x4.2 3S / 9x4.4 2S): Fast spool-up, strong thrust (recommended)
• APC 4D SFR Black (5mm hub, 8x3.7 3S / 9x3.9 2S): Slower reverse, max thrust
• PT Model 4D Carbon Fiber Props: Fastest reverse spool, lower thrust

Built for smooth, responsive 3D/4D control—the Vertex Series ESC is the ultimate choice for precision flight! ?
