Hi everyone, i have two FC : Matek F405 STD and Naza.

I want to try them both on a quad 250 mm. 

Do you think there could be a 4 in 1 esc (30 or 40 A, i will mount a 2205 or 2306 motor) compatible with both FCs?

If there isn't a  small esc 4 in 1 for naza, i will probably  buy 4x  single esc  racestar.


Thank you

The Naza is very old and I am not sure you will find newer firmware for it. You can post that to a museum.

The Matek F405 STD although EOL will work well with a 4in1 ESC, the motor outputs are labeled S1/S2/S3/S4/S5/S6.

One thing to remember when choosing a 4in1 ESC is to find one which has a 5v output as the Matek F405 STD can only be powered via 5v. There is a vbat pad on that FC but it is only for voltage sensing.

I found on the web that BLHeli_32bit is also compatible, since the output of the esc is PW. The problem is that usually in FCs only the signal cables S1 S2 S3 S4 etc. are connected. The naza wants the ground signal for each esc, where do I get it in that case?

Any ground on the FC will work.

With a few exceptions for ground isolation, every ground pad on any PCB board not just FC’s are in electrical continuity.

Kafie, thank you very much for your time. 

I only have one last question, then i stop bothering you : 

Is this ESC reliable?

It has also BEC for Matek F405 STD . 

Do you  have any  advice for better ESCs that risk breaking less around 50-70 euros?

Thank you so much!

I have never tried an Eachine ESC and so I am unable to comment.

Try finding a reputable ESC but even then with electronics in this hobby there is no guarantee.

I will advise against buying anything from BG because their refund/dispute policy is a pain to deal with.

Try finding an ESC from a local store so you can get a replacement if you get a DOA or bad board.

Eachine use generic / cloned ESCs and you will likely get what you pay for. That ESC is almost half the price of other 30x30 ESCs so pay your money and take your chances.

I echo what kafie said about B**g***d. Avoid them like COVID-19. I stopped buying stuff from them and haven't given them any of my money for more than two years due to their crappy customer support and warranty. If you buy from a vendor in your own country, even if you pay a bit more it means you are supporting local businesses and you will have some legal comeback if you end up with faulty / substandard goods. If you buy from a foreign vendor you are at the mercy of their "goodwill" only and generally get no real protection or comeback if something goes wrong, even if you use PayPal.
