Blu-Thrust Z80E-170 Underwater Thruster (24V, Built-In ESC)
The ESC-integrated variant of the Z80-170 thruster, embedding a tuned trapezoidal electronic speed controller within a grey polycarbonate housing. Wiring is simplified to power (+/-) and a signal line, removing the need for a separate external controller while retaining the Z80 platform's tool-free snap-on rear cap and IP2X weed guard.
