Product overview
The HOBBYWING Platinum HV 180A V5 carries the specification name Platinum HV 180A SBEC V5 and product number 30209103. This high-voltage brushless electronic speed controller serves electric aircraft propulsion, with applications covering 550-700 class helicopters using main rotor lengths of 550-700mm, as well as fixed-wing aircraft. It accepts 6-14S LiPo input and has current ratings of 180A continuous and 260A peak. Its built-in switch-mode BEC offers adjustable 5-12V output, rated at 10A continuous and 30A peak, with an anti-reverse circuit supporting parallel operation with external 2S batteries.
The controller combines a double-sided heat sink with a side vent and an internal air duct for cooling-fan airflow. Its dimensions are 100.6 × 45.5 × 26.1mm and its weight is 250.6g; both measurements exclude the fan. The wired configuration has one red and one black 10AWG input lead, each 255mm long, plus three black 10AWG output leads, each 150mm long. Neither input nor output connectors are supplied. Built-in anti-spark circuitry addresses battery connection, while protection functions cover start-up, current, temperature, overload, throttle signal loss, capacitor temperature and abnormal input voltage.
Speed regulation uses a 32-bit processor and an RPM accuracy algorithm, with adjustable constant-speed sensitivity. Mikado VBar and Futaba S.Bus2 telemetry support allows working-status monitoring, and VBar protocol support enables parameter adjustment through the remote-control device. A separate programming port supports the LCD Program Box and OTA Programmer, and the controller supports firmware upgrades. Transmitter programming, LED Program Card programming and LED Program Box programming are unsupported. These programming options and protocol requirements define the available control and configuration interfaces for aircraft integration.
