- Category
- Thrusters
The electronic (ESC-integrated) variant of the Z60 thruster, with a tuned trapezoidal electronic speed controller embedded inside the grey housing. This eliminates the need for a separate external ESC and simplifies wiring to power and signal lines only, reducing equipment-bay space requirements versus the non-ESC Z60.
