Futaba MC231CR: Compact ESC Built for Control

The Futaba MC231CR Electronic Speed Controller offers compact, linear control of forward, reverse and braking for RC cars. It is intended for use with motors that have more than 23 turns and provides consistent, repeatable response suitable for club racing and casual off-road runs. Its small case and light weight make mounting straightforward in tight chassis areas.

Feature Highlights

Linear Control: Drives forward, reverse and braking in a smooth, proportional way to aid handling.
Power Compatibility: Works with NiCd battery packs of 6 to 7 cells (7.2-8.4V), offering common battery options.
Motor Support: Designed for motors greater than 23 turns, covering many brushed motor choices.
PWM Frequency: Constant 1.5kHz PWM ensures steady throttle behaviour across temperature and load changes.
Easy Setup: One-button setup saves your configuration into the internal EEPROM for convenience.
Protection Features: A 35A fuse is provided to reduce the risk of damage from excessive current draw.
Compact Design: Dimensions are 27.1 x 33.3 x 12.8mm excluding protrusions, and the unit weighs 48g for easy installation.
BEC Voltage: Delivers a regulated 6.0V to servos to maintain consistent steering control.

How compact is the MC231CR for tight chassis spaces?

With external dimensions of 27.1 x 33.3 x 12.8mm and a weight of 48g, the MC231CR fits neatly into most touring and 1/10 scale off-road chassis without adding much weight.

Does the ESC support different battery setups?

Yes, it supports NiCd packs with 6 to 7 cells, which equals roughly 7.2 to 8.4V. Confirm your battery condition and connector types before use.

What effect does the fixed 1.5kHz PWM have?

The fixed 1.5kHz PWM frequency provides a balanced response and is chosen to match typical brushed motor characteristics, helping keep throttle feel predictable.

How do I protect servos and electronics while using this ESC?

The ESC supplies a regulated 6.0V BEC for servos and includes a 35A fuse to protect against excessive current. Use properly rated connectors and check wiring for wear to keep everything safe.
