The SPY is Novakˇ¦s micro-sized,
forward/reversible speed control that is specifically designed for
use with any 4-7 cell, 1/24 - 1/18 scale R/C car.
The Spy measures just 1.12in x
0.95in x 0.48in (28.45mm x 24.13mm x 12.06mm), and weighing a mere
0.51 oz. (14.4 g). HPI-type connectors are pre-wired for convenient
installation. While its compact size may tempt racers who are on the
lookout for the extra advantage found in a tiny, lightweight speed
control, it is important to note that the SPY is not intended for
use in R/C cars with 540-size (05) R/C motors.
The SPY includes the same standard
features as all current Novak-manufactured speed controls: One-Touch
Set-Up, Radio Priority Circuitry, Polar Drive Technology, Thermal
Protection, Smart Braking, and Reverse
Disable. While Novak
ESCs are easily recognized by their bright orange case, the SPY
deviates ever so subtly from this practice, yet still makes its
Novak heritage apparent. A new translucent orange case is the SPY
cover of choice, allowing anyone to take a glimpse into its inner
working, while still keeping Novakˇ¦s technological secrets intact.
