In RC Drifting, the ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) acts as the "brain" of the vehicle. It allows you to regulate how much power gets directed to the motor, enabling speed control, and braking. It is one of many crucial parts in a RC build, and the ones in particular that we will be looking at in this post is the Acuvance RAD ESC's.

For the serious hobbyist, the "Pro" designation translates to reduced performance fade and improved centering accuracy over time.  For...
