The Hobbywing Skywalker 80A is a brushless ESC from the SKYWALKER series, designed for both beginners and experienced RC pilots. The page describes a built-in 5A UBEC for stable receiver power.
The specification list gives a burst current of 100A for up to 10 seconds, a 5A/5V switch-mode BEC and a refresh rate of 50 Hz to 432 Hz. The description says it supports 3-6S batteries while the features say 2S-6S, so confirm the lowest cell count with the seller. It is suited to RC airplanes, gliders and multi-rotor aircraft. The page showed it in stock at Rs 3,290 (SKU RS5980).
80A continuous current: with overload capacity.
100A burst: up to 10 seconds.
Built-in 5A/5V switch-mode UBEC: for receiver and servo power.
2S-6S LiPo: as listed in the features.
50 Hz to 432 Hz refresh rate: as listed.
Optimised PCB and MOSFETs: for efficiency.
An electronic speed controller (ESC) converts the throttle signal from the flight controller into the three-phase power that a brushless motor needs. It switches battery current through MOSFETs at high speed, so the motor turns at the speed that the pilot or autopilot asks for. The continuous current rating shows how much current the ESC can carry all the time, and the burst rating shows what it can survive for a few seconds.
Match the ESC to the rest of the power system. The battery cell count must fall inside the listed range, the continuous current must be higher than what your motor and propeller draw at full throttle, and the signal protocol (for example PWM, Oneshot, Multishot or DShot) must be supported by your flight controller. An ESC marked OPTO has no built-in BEC, so the receiver and flight controller need power from another source. An ESC with a BEC can supply a regulated voltage, usually 5V, to small electronics.
Install and test carefully. Solder joints must be clean and strong, the motor wires should be kept short and tidy, and the ESC needs airflow because current makes heat. Calibrate the throttle range if the ESC needs it, check the motor direction with the propellers removed, and never connect a battery with the propellers fitted while you are working on the wiring. Use a battery with a cell count and connector that suit the ESC, and check for a heat problem after a short test hover.
