Furitek MicroModo SENSORED 2026 Brushless Outrunner Power System FOR REDCAT ASCENT-18

True Sensored Control for ASCENT-18 Crawlers

Introducing the next evolution of MicroModo.

The 
Furitek MicroModo SENSORED 2026 Brushless Outrunner Power System is a complete redesign of our original MicroModo concept—now powered by a 
true sensored outrunner system that eliminates cogging, dramatically improves startup precision, and delivers 
absolute low-speed control for serious 
REDCAT ASCENT-18 crawling.

This is 
not an incremental update.

This is the moment MicroModo transitions from 
sensorless brushless to 
true sensored performance.

What Makes MicroModo SENSORED a Game Changer

True Sensored Outrunner System

Unlike the previous sensorless MicroModo generation, the 
SENSORED 2026 system uses real rotor position feedback, allowing the ESC to precisely control motor timing from 
zero RPM.

The result is instant startup, zero cogging, and unmatched throttle resolution—exactly where 
ASCENT-18 crawlers demand it most.

MicroPython Sensored ESC + MicroKomodo Sensored Outrunner Motor

This system pairs the 
MicroPython Sensored ESC with the 
MicroKomodo Sensored Outrunner Motor, engineered as a tightly integrated power unit. ESC and motor communicate continuously, maintaining 
smooth torque delivery even at ultra-low crawling speeds.

Designed Specifically for REDCAT ASCENT-18

Every aspect of the 
MicroModo SENSORED system is tailored for the compact 
ASCENT-18 chassis:

• Optimized footprint for tight installations

• Clean upward wire layout to maximize usable space

• Perfect balance of torque, efficiency, and thermal stability

MicroModo SENSORED Key Features

• True Sensored Outrunner Architecture – eliminates cogging completely

• Ultra-Low Speed Precision – controlled, predictable movement at crawl speed

• FOC-Based Control Algorithm – smooth torque across the entire RPM range

• Instant, Jerk-Free Startup – no hesitation, no stutter

• Ultra-Compact ESC + Motor Combo – purpose-built for ASCENT-18

• Upward Wire ESC Design – clean routing, easy installation

• High-Power 5A BEC – drives high-torque servos effortlessly

• Plug-and-Tune via Furicar App – real-time tuning and telemetry

Why Sensored Matters (Sensorless vs Sensored)

The original MicroModo sensorless system delivered strong brushless performance.

However, sensorless control inevitably struggles during the 
transition from ultra-low speed to normal operating RPM, where rotor position must be estimated instead of measured.

This often results in momentary hesitation, torque ripple, or uneven throttle response as the ESC switches control modes.

MicroModo SENSORED changes this completely.

With 
true rotor position feedback, the MicroModo SENSORED system maintains 
continuous, precise control from super-low speed through normal driving speeds, without any disruption or handoff artifacts.

• Seamless transition from crawl speed to normal speed

• No torque drop or hesitation during acceleration

• No control handoff artifacts

• Perfectly linear throttle response across the entire RPM range

The Result

Movement feels 
natural, predictable, and mechanically connected—exactly what an 
ASCENT-18 crawler demands when navigating technical terrain.

This is the difference between

“good brushless performance”

and

true crawler-grade sensored brushless control.
