Description of Kontronik Jive 120+ HV ESC:

The Jive ESCs offer integrated shock resistant housing made from a specific poly amide protects the JIVE ESC from mechanical damage and makes it waterproof. The plastic material has been developed especially for injection molding of electronic parts without tensions or stress for the electronic components

The naming 120+ means: 120 max continuous without using any cooling devices. With a good extra cooling it is possible to get up to double power. The huge cooling plate is perfectly connected with the power parts and provides good heat transfer and enables additional cooling to be realized. It is possible to raise their performance enormously by installing an additional cooling devices such as a heatsink.

Further highlights are waiting inside the new JIVE ESC, for example the unbelievable strong BEC which is adjustable between 5 and 6V with ProgCARD II. It offers 5A continuous BEC current with 15A in peak. That's enough for all spectacular flight figures even in helicopters. To provide this power the JIVE ESCs have got two parallel BEC output jacks. It is necessary to use both BEC output jacks if you are using this ESC with high current servos, most specifically in a flybarless application.

Unique too is the BEC of the HV Types, which offers 5A continuous current with 15A peak current up to 12s (16-50V). This after all allows a secure BEC usage for all applications up to 12s, of course without any voltage swing and without interferences - proven by thorough tests on out own EMV test bench.

Due to a second processor it was possible to exceed the well-known JAZZ Software with some new leading features. For example the JIVE alarms the pilot after the flight, when it was used in overload regions in order to prevent a later malfunction.
