Product overview
The Scorpion Tribunus III 08-160A serves as an electronic speed controller for high-current airplane setups and general high-power models. Its listed helicopter applications are high-power 580 helicopters and lightweight 700-class helicopters, each using 6S to 8S configurations. The model accepts 3S–8S LiPo input and is described as supporting operation up to 35V. For procurement, these statements establish the manufacturer's intended application envelope. The supplied announcement does not separately define continuous and peak current ratings, so the model designation alone cannot resolve those requirements for a particular installation.
The announced configuration combines enclosed capacitors, integrated mounting, enhanced heat dissipation and a two-tone anodized finish. These are shared Tribunus III features, alongside multiple telemetry protocols and an adjustable 5V–12V BEC for servos and electronics. It also describes proprietary motor control, safety protections and a five-step quality-control process including high-amp run-in, without quantified results or protection thresholds. Photographs carry an explicit qualification concerning package quantity, size, color and features.
