Race Ready Drive: Tamiya Volac Brushless BL2 ESC

For drivers seeking predictable throttle and braking, the Tamiya Volac Brushless BL2 ESC fills that role with race-proven hardware. Its pedigree includes use by Marc Rheinard during the 2008 IRMAR World Championship, showing it performs in high level competition.

Multiple Power Maps for Different Conditions

The BL2 provides 10 power maps so you can fine tune the motor output for sprint races or longer club events. Switching between profiles helps match power delivery to tyre choice and surface grip.

Controlled Braking and Effective Cooling

The ESC includes 10 automatic brake settings to manage drag when the throttle is neutral, giving you control over deceleration. Its construction promotes efficient heat dispersion and the detachable cooling fan assists during heavy use.

Robust Blue Metal Finish

The unit is presented in a blue metal plated case with the Tamiya logo, combining a clean look with extra protection for the internal electronics under rough running conditions.

The Volac BL2 is geared toward hobbyists and racers ready to invest time in setup and tuning. With careful configuration it delivers consistent performance and solid thermal behaviour.

Typically the sensor wiring is preconfigured, but check motor timing and sensor alignment during installation and perform any necessary calibration steps recommended by your motor maker.
Most adjustments can be made while the ESC is mounted, though ensure the car is immobilised and power is disconnected while swapping jumpers or connectors to avoid shorts.
The ESC is versatile for both smooth on-road circuits and harder off-road tracks; choose power profiles and brake settings to match the surface for optimal control.
Replacement sensor wires and fans are commonly available from hobby parts suppliers; keep spare fasteners and tie-wraps to maintain secure mounting.
