Hydra XLX2, 8S, 33.6V ESC, 20A BEC - CSE010017300

Regular price $325.95


The Hydra XLX2 is based on our popular and powerful Mamba XLX2 ESC. We've removed the air-cooled heatsink and added a water-cooled heatsink. It is finished off with an aluminum top plate for a clean look. Attached to the top plate are two aluminum, water fittings for 1/8" tubing that uses standard 10-32 UNF threads; the package includes optional .17" fittings.
