Track-Proven Control: Tamiya Volac Brushless BL2 ESC

If you pursue precise lap times, the Tamiya Volac Brushless BL2 ESC delivers the control and response competitive drivers expect. This high-end electronic speed controller powered Marc Rheinard to the 2008 IRMAR World Championship and adapts well whether you are on smooth asphalt or mixed-surface courses.

Configurable Power for Different Surfaces

The Volac BL2 stands out with 10 selectable power profiles, letting you dial in aggressive acceleration or smoother torque for low-traction spots. These presets make it straightforward to match the motor response to on-road tarmac or rougher off-road sections.

Precision Braking and Reliable Thermal Management

Along with power tuning, the BL2 provides 10 adjustable automatic brake levels so you can control retardation when the throttle returns to neutral. The ESC is built to run cool under load, using its thermal design and the supplied detachable fan to manage heat during long race runs.

Durable Blue Metal Case with Branding

The unit comes in a blue metal plated housing with the Tamiya logo, combining visual appeal with added protection for the electronics inside. The robust casing helps keep components secure during hard use.

Specifications

  • Power Profiles: 10 adjustable settings
  • Brake Settings: 10 adjustable levels
  • Cooling: Advanced design for optimal heat management
  • Design: Blue metal plated case with Tamiya logo

The Tamiya Volac Brushless BL2 ESC rewards experienced builders who invest time in setup. Proper installation and tuning yield precise throttle response and consistent thermal performance during competitive use.

Yes, the ESC works with compatible sensored brushless motors from other manufacturers, but confirm sensor wiring and pinouts match before connecting.
The detachable fan helps under prolonged high-load runs; for short club races it may not be required but it is useful when running at high power settings.
Start with a milder power profile and lower throttle response, then incrementally increase aggression while testing corner exits to find the best balance for grip conditions.
This model is programmed via its built-in settings and the supplied wiring; check compatibility if you plan to use external programming tools or telemetry modules.
