Overview
The Castle Creations Direct Connect Sensor Wire 250mm (011-0146-00) is a clean, reliable replacement sensor cable that eliminates the Castle sensor harness adapter. By connecting directly between your sensored brushless motor and Castle ESC, this 250mm cable reduces connection points for a cleaner, more dependable installation.
One end features a standard ROAR-approved sensor plug for compatibility with virtually any sensored brushless motor. The other end plugs directly into compatible Castle waterproof, sensored-capable ESCs. Fewer connectors means better signal reliability - especially important in racing and high-performance applications.
The 250mm length is the ideal middle-ground reach for most 1/10 and 1/8 scale chassis layouts, balancing clean routing with adequate motor-to-ESC distance.
