Futaba MC117 ESC for Consistent Control

When lap times count, the choice of ESC affects traction and throttle feel. The Futaba MC117 delivers predictable power delivery and responsiveness that helps drivers keep pace across varied track surfaces.

Accurate Throttle Response

The MC117's internal electronics focus on subtle throttle adjustments so you can apply power smoothly. That accuracy improves corner exits and reduces wheel spin on loose or changing surfaces.

Compact Design and Heat Management

Designed for busy race days, the MC117 fits neatly into tight chassis bays while delivering reliable thermal performance. The integrated cooling reduces overheating risk during back-to-back runs.

Why Experienced Drivers Choose the MC117

Experienced drivers value the MC117 for its predictable behaviour under load and its ability to be tuned for different driving approaches. It favors controllability over aggressive, unpredictable power spikes.

Setup and Matching Advice

Pair the Futaba MC117 with a motor that matches your gearing and track conditions, then fine-tune parameters like brake strength and throttle ramping. Simple, targeted tweaks usually yield the best improvements.
