Novak is proud to announce the upcoming release of their all new GTB2 Sportsman ESC!

The GTB 2 Sportsman ESC with Low Profile Heat Sink is a speed control that has been developed for the modern racer. This version of the GTB includes a variety of features, including built-in protection in an effortless, clean, and technological design. The GTB 2 includes every feature a Sportsman class driver could want, without timing adjustments or a PC interface. This ESC provides the industry with a much needed spec class speed controller that guarantees even competition among Sportsman and Spec Class racers.

This GTB 2 includes a low-profile heat sink for plenty of cooling without taking up space, and is ideal for use with motors down to 8.5 turns. Also, the GTB 2 meets ROAR Sportsman Class guidelines and has a user-friendly One-Touch Programming Interface. Just like its predecessor, the GTB 2 has multiple adjustable parameters, including Minimum Brake, Drag Brake, Novak Thermal Overload Protection, Voltage Cut-Off Circuitry and more, with an extremely low on-resistance for its price point.

A MODERN SPEED CONTROL:
The GTB 2 LP ESC would not be a Novak product if it wasn't upgraded with the latest features available. The GTB 2 LP features the patent-pending NovaBrakes system that provides instantaneous braking under any condition. The brake response is smooth and immediate at any speed or throttle position, eliminating brake delay. This new braking system has completely transformed the feel, response and use of traditional brakes.

Not only does the GTB 2 LP come with excellent Default Programming, but it includes features such as Throttle Curve Selection (Linear/Expo), Brake Curve Selection (Linear/Expo), Adjustable Brake Frequency, Adjustable Brake End Point, and an Adjustable Drive Frequency. The GTB 2 LP also includes a selectable Motor Rotation and has a low profile heat sink for reduced weight and efficient cooling.

FUNCTIONAL AND COOL RACING:
Included in the GTB 2 LP's long list of features, is Novak's temperature indicator. This allows racers to check their ESC's temperature during or after each run, and is a standard feature. This indicator is so accurate that many racers use it in place of a temperature gun. A quick tap on the One Touch™ button will display the speed control's temperature via the on-board LEDs.

Additionally, Novak's Hall Sensor Test™ quickly verifies if the sensor harness and sensors in the motor are functioning properly without any risk to the ESC or motor. This Hall Sensor Test is an invaluable tool when troubleshooting at the race track, and is compatible with all Novak motors.

FAIR AND EVEN SPORTSMAN RACING:
One of the best qualities about the GTB 2 LP ESC is its signature purpose as a Sportsman Class and Entry-Level ESC. It is perfect for the racer who wants a small, reliable and modern speed control without Boost, Timing Levels, Timing Set Point Adjustments or a PC Interface to alter its settings. Novak is pleased to release a speed control perfect for the rising popularity of Sportsman and Spec Class Racing.

The GTB 2 LP is an all-purpose speed control for On-Road, Off-Road or Oval Racing, and is compatible with all Novak 540-size and 550-size sensored brushless motors. It's compact, small and light-weight design combined with a low-profile heat sink for reduced weight make it perfect for many different vehicles of many shapes and sizes. The GTB 2 LP features a highly water resistant case with a silicone seal gasket and includes a cooling fan. It meets RoHs compliance and includes Novak's 120-Day Warranty.
