Ghost RC 020-0289-00 Cobra 8 ACE No Prep Drag Brushless ESC w/1412 Sensored Motor Combo (4300kV) (Adjustable Endbell)
The Ghost RC Cobra 8 ACE No Prep Drag combo centers around a 4300kV drag motor created for the demands of today's drag racing scene. It was conceived as a natural evolution from earlier high-speed designs, shifting the focus toward stronger torque delivery to better manage the heavier loads common in no-prep and sand drag racing. The result is a setup that emphasizes controlled power, consistency, and confidence off the line.
About the Sensored Motor Combo
Balanced Power and Control
Rather than chasing outright speed alone, this combo delivers power in a way that is usable and predictable. The motor's design supports smooth acceleration and stable performance across a wide range of racing conditions, making it adaptable for different track surfaces and driving styles. This balance allows racers to push harder without sacrificing control, especially when traction is limited.
Tuning Freedom and Driver Adaptability
The Cobra 8 ACE speed controller complements the motor by giving racers extensive control over how power is delivered. Its flexible tuning approach allows adjustments to be made before a run or even during a pass, enabling drivers to respond quickly to changing conditions. This level of adaptability supports strategic racing and helps fine-tune performance for maximum consistency.
Built for Reliability and Longevity
Durability and ease of use are core strengths of this combo. Both components are designed to withstand harsh racing environments while maintaining dependable operation run after run. Protective systems and feedback mechanisms help safeguard the electronics, giving racers peace of mind and allowing them to focus on competition rather than equipment concerns.

*Tech Note: A capacitor pack must be installed for drag racing use, and high-current QS8 or 8mm battery connectors are required. The system must not exceed 14.8V, as higher voltage will permanently damage the ESC and void the warranty.
**Tech Note: The motor and ESC are not designed for submerged operation, and proper sensor wire connection is required to fully utilize motor performance.
