New sensor technology has changed the feel, performance, and overall tune-ability of the new Axe ESC and Motor in ways some
have never experienced. Field-oriented Control is the name of this new tech, and is something all new to the scale trail, rock racing,
and rc world in-general. This new style of sensor allows extremely accurate control and sensing of the motor while maintaining
extreme performance and reliability. The motor and ESC are able to match the RPM of the motor to your throttle position under all
driving conditions. This greatly improves down hill driving giving this system the ability to drive down hill under complete control.
FOC technology also makes the whole system extremly silent, the motor doesn't create the annoying PWM noise when it is running.

The new Axe motor not only has a new sensor design, but compared to other rock crawler
design motors uses an improved staggered pole rotor design. What does this mean?
Smoother operation with no cogging, and very clean and consistent deceleration. Smoother
brakes, smoother power, and transitions between each are improved. This is specific to trail
and rock crawling and allows extremely precise throttle control under any load conditions.

RCHobbywing's AXE FOC Crawler system has been designed with a
very unique feature protecting your ESC from damage caused by
Battery Reverse Polarity, so no matter how many times you reverse
the battery connections the AXE ESC and the paired motor are safe
from damage. Maybe this feature is the first in R/C Car industry.

Extremely efficient design comes from the combination of new methods. The FOC
sensors provided significant improvements to overall motor performance when
compared to standard brushless setups. Runtime is increased dramatically while
maintaining exceptional levels of power and response.

An all new sensor harness is more than just water proof, and will take on all element from
water to mud and dirt/dust. No need for anything extra, o-ring sealed, and uses a screw
together design to ensure it won’t come loose.

A high precision magnetic encoder is used in the motor to ensure precision and
consistent information is provided to the ESC. This allows the ESC to have more
information from the motor than standard “hall” type sensors and provides improved
performance and efficiency.

With enough settings to keep your vehicle running “just right”, there are also timing/boost settings, just in
case it’s not fast enough, this feature allows you to unleash some extra top speed from your Axe System.
Sometimes the trails are long and winding, so more wheel speed is welcome!
