AstroFlight Model 205 ESC
The AstroFlight Model 205 is a non-BEC speed control that has no power shut-off switch. From initial checkout, observed response times seem significantly more sluggish than other speed controls.

Re: AstroFlight Model 205 ESC
Included paperwork has a speed control design letter from Bob Boucher.

Re: AstroFlight Model 205 ESC
The letter that accompanied the speed controller is very cool. I remember AstroFlight for being big on drag racing and tractor pulling back in the day so it was interesting to see the paperwork discussing boat and plane applications. Not terribly surprising for the controller to be sluggish as Astro was all about power handling as opposed to responsiveness...
