Key Features
-
Seamless Light Integration: Allows for a clean, plug-and-play connection between RER37880 LED light sets and the brushless 2-in-1 ESC/Receiver unit.
-
JR Compatibility: The JR-end fits into any standard auxiliary channel on a hobby-grade receiver, making it easy to power your lights directly from the internal BEC.
-
Compact and Lightweight: Designed with a short lead to minimize "wire clutter" inside the small 1/18 scale chassis, ensuring cables don't get caught in the drivetrain.
