Team Associated Reedy BLACKBOX 880R Competition 1/8 ESC (27043)
1/8 Scale Brushless Competition ESC • Race‑Tuned Performance (ESC Only)
The Team Associated Reedy BLACKBOX 880R (27043) is a premium competition brushless ESC engineered for the extreme demands of 1/8 eBuggy, eTruggy, and 1/10 4WD Short Course racing. Built for racers who demand precise throttle feel, strong braking control, and consistent performance through long mains, the 880R pairs high‑end hardware with deep adjustability and race‑proven default settings.
This version is the ESC only (Programmer2 not included).
Product Overview
Built for High‑Load Racing
The 880R is designed around an ultra‑low resistance power stage and a fast 32‑bit control system to deliver smooth, accurate throttle response and predictable braking feel under heavy load.
Cooling and Durability
A CNC‑machined aluminum case with integrated heat sink and an included 30mm cooling fan with machined shroud help keep temperatures stable during extended race sessions.
Deep Tuning (Programmer2 Compatible)
The ESC supports extensive tuning and firmware updates when used with the optional Blackbox Programmer2, including two selectable profiles (Standard and Expert) that can be saved independently.
