We now offer the Quick Connect for more convenient data log downloading and adjusting controller settings.

It has an extra 12" servo lead that can be placed wherever it is convenient to plug in the link, while your speed controller stays connected to the receiver. No more digging into your setup to get to the receiver just to pull off your data or change settings!
Phoenix Ice HV logs incredibly useful data directly in the controller. No more guessing about the performance of your system – now you’ll have hard numbers to prove it!
