Description
The Hobbywing XeRun XR8 Plus is a professional-grade 1/8 sensored brushless ESC designed to deliver maximum performance and reliability under the most demanding racing conditions. Combining robust hardware, advanced firmware, and dynamic timing technology, the XR8 Plus provides explosive acceleration, ultra-smooth throttle response, and precise control for both off-road and on-road racing applications.
The ESC features Hobbywing’s patented cooling technology, rapidly transferring internal heat through proprietary copper heat conductors into the CNC-machined aluminum heatsink housing. A shock-resistant cooling fan mount further improves durability during heavy jumps and rough racing conditions, ensuring stable operation under extreme loads.
The XR8 Plus was one of the world’s first 1/8 ESCs to integrate a high-voltage BEC capable of delivering up to 15A peak output with selectable 6V or 7.4V voltage. This allows racers to power modern high-voltage servos directly without requiring an external receiver battery.
An advanced “Coasting” function simulates the inertia and free-rolling feel of a full-scale vehicle, significantly improving driving characteristics in high-powered setups by reducing abrupt electromagnetic drag when off throttle.
The XR8 Plus also supports dynamic timing technology, OTA programming, WiFi programming modules, and extensive tuning capabilities for professional-level racers.
