Description
Why Choose MDDRC5?
Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Skip the messy breadboards and complex Arduino coding. Connect your RC receiver directly to the MDDRC5 and start driving in seconds. Perfect for getting your robot battle-ready fast.
Compact Size: Ideal for compact competition robots. In the 500g category, every millimetre and gram counts. With a footprint of 69x35.5mm, the MDDRC5 is significantly more compact than the MDDRC10, freeing up critical space for extra weights to dominate the Dohyo.
High-Current Performance: Don’t let the size fool you. With 5A continuous and a massive 20A peak current per channel, this driver is built to handle high-current demands, aggressive accelerations, and sudden direction changes during intense head-to-head combat.
Precision Control & Alignment: Unlike basic drivers, the MDDRC5 features a Motor Alignment Potentiometer. Fine-tune your motors' alignment to ensure your robot drives dead-straight, giving you superior accuracy during a charge.
Future-Proof for Pros: Start as a beginner with RC PWM, then grow into a pro. The USB-C port allows you to update firmware or upload custom code, transforming the board into a fully programmable controller as your skills evolve.
