Futaba MC117 ESC - Tunable Control and Reliability

A well-tuned ESC lets you extract consistent lap times from your chassis. The Futaba MC117 supplies adjustable response and solid construction to support both practice and race day demands.

Refined Throttle Modulation

The MC117's control logic focuses on gradual and predictable power application, which helps drivers modulate acceleration and maintain traction through challenging sections of a course.

Sturdy Design with Thermal Stability

Engineered for repeat use, the MC117 packs rugged components into a compact layout that suits many car models. Its integrated cooling keeps operation stable during intensive running.

Where the MC117 Adds Value

Instead of pushing extreme power, this ESC enhances drivability by smoothing inputs and making the car easier to place on the racing line, an advantage in tight competition.

Fine-Tuning Recommendations

When setting up your Futaba MC117, begin with conservative punch and braking settings, then refine based on lap feedback. Small, systematic changes help identify the best configuration for tyres and track surface.

Specifications

  • Brand: Futaba
  • Category: Speed Controller (ESC)
  • Type: Car ESC
  • Cooling System: Built-in
  • Compatibility: Suitable for various RC car models

The Futaba MC117 ESC is well suited to tuners seeking precise control and stable hardware. Its focus on controllability makes it a reliable part of a competitive RC kit.

If firmware updates are available, they can improve compatibility and tuning features. Check the official sources and follow update instructions carefully.
Optimal timing depends on motor type and gearing. Begin with manufacturer recommendations and adjust timing to balance temperature and midrange response.
Ensure good airflow, avoid excessive gear ratios that increase current, and monitor ESC temperature between heats. Reducing punch can also lower thermal load.
Service parts and replacement connectors are typically available through authorised dealers; keep spares for connectors and mounting hardware for quick repairs.
