Precision Crawling Control from the Tamiya 42153 ESC

Built for slow-speed rock work, the Tamiya 42153 Brushless ESC is Tamiya's first brushless unit tuned for crawler rigs. It adapts to both brushed and brushless motors so you can use it across a range of builds and motor types.

Adjustable Neutral Braking for Steep Lines

The ESC features ten Hill-Brake positions so you can set how the vehicle holds when the throttle is released. That adjustable neutral brake makes it easier to manage tricky scrambles and to place the car precisely on the trail.

Connectors and Chassis Compatibility

This unit comes pre-fitted with Tamiya battery connectors and JST motor connections for quick hook-up. A hall sensor lead is included to connect to compatible brushless motors, improving low-speed drivability.

Optimal Electronics Matchups

For balanced trail performance, pair the 42153 with the High Performance Transpeed Brushless Motor (Super Stock 21.5T), item 42154, to get a reliable mix of torque and control for technical routes.

Specifications

  • Motor Compatibility: Suitable for brushed or brushless motor types
  • Functions: Forward, brake and reverse functionality
  • Adjustable Hill-Brake Settings: 10 levels to tune neutral braking
  • Included Components: ESC, Tamiya battery plug, JST motor plugs and hall sensor cable
  • Chassis Compatibility: Designed for CR-01 chassis integration

Tamiya's 42153 ESC brings crawler-specific tuning into a compact package, helping hobbyists get smoother, more controlled runs on low-speed courses.

Mounting depends on your chassis layout, but the 42153 is sized for common crawler trays and is compatible with CR-01 style arrangements.
Hill-Brake is adjustable via the ESC settings; refer to the manual for the exact programming method rather than changing while driving.
Check your servo voltage needs; the ESC supplies standard receiver power through the Tamiya connector but high-draw servos may require an external power source.
