Futaba MC231CR: Smooth Reversing and Braking

The Futaba MC231CR Electronic Speed Controller brings controlled, proportional forward, reverse and brake performance for hobby RC cars. Its linear response helps drivers modulate speed and braking, while compatibility with motors exceeding 23 turns fits many brushed motor applications. The unit is designed for straightforward installation and reliable track performance.

Notable Features of the Futaba MC231CR
