Castle Creations 010-0184-01 Cobra 6 8S 1/6 Brushless ESC & Motor Combo (800kV)

The Castle Creations Cobra 6 8S 1/6 Brushless ESC and Motor Combo is engineered for large-scale 1/7 and 1/6 vehicles weighing up to 25 pounds and running up to 8S LiPo. Built for heavy, high-performance rigs, it delivers smooth low-end control without sacrificing torque, punch, or top-end speed. Based on the Monster X 8S architecture, the Cobra 6 elevates performance with a powerful 32-bit processor, expanded data logging, and advanced tuning flexibility. Paired with the 2028 sensored motor, this combo provides a complete, high-efficiency power system for demanding applications.

The Cobra 6 is powered by a 32-bit processing platform that enhances throttle precision, motor control, and responsiveness under load. This architecture allows the ESC to react quickly to changing conditions, improving consistency during acceleration, braking, and high-stress driving. CRYO-DRIVE thermal management further boosts efficiency by reducing heat generation during partial-throttle operation.

A significantly expanded data logging suite provides double the sample frequency and eight times the recording duration of previous generations. Additional data points, including electrical motor timing and acceleration from the onboard accelerometer, give drivers deeper insight into system behavior. Adjustable braking curves, a wide-range internal BEC, and multiple programming pathways such as the included Castle Link V4 USB-C and optional Castle Creations B-Link Bluetooth Interface (CSE011-0181-00 - sold separately), offer complete control over ESC setup.

The included 2028 sensored motor is built for large-scale power delivery with exceptional efficiency and thermal stability. Its four-pole, twelve-slot design reduces heat while maintaining strong torque output, and dual sensor ports ensure flexible installation. Oversized bearings, high-temperature neodymium magnets, and a Kevlar-wrapped rotor provide durability under extreme loads and high RPM operation, making it an ideal match for the Cobra 6 ESC.

Notes:

  • Due to the high power nature of the Cobra 6, you must use appropriately sized batteries and connectors. We recommend a minimum 150 amp connector for the Cobra 6; examples include Castle 6.5mm and 6.5mm polarized, QS8, or QS10 Anti Spark. Do NOT use high-voltage batteries that run over 4.2-volts per cell when running the 8S max cell count.
  • While designed to be waterproof, the Cobra 6 is not intended to run while completely submerged. Additionally, the cooling fan is not waterproof and must be removed prior to driving in wet conditions.
  • Although many users have run the Cobra 6 in high-speed and drag applications, it is not designed for this purpose. Failures resulting from use on these applications are not covered under the Castle Creations warranty.
