CC CapPack is useful in all brushless motor applications, where it serves to give just that little boost needed to overcome ripples in the battery voltage caused by hard acceleration or long battery wires. Ripple voltage is hard on an ESC - adding the CC CapPack can help reduce the load on the controller's on-board capacitors. This CapPack uses four 560µF, 35V capacitors totaling 2240µF, which increases its ripple reducing capabilities.It can be used with LiPo batteries up to 8 cells. If your batteries are greater than 8s (35V) then you will need the 880µF, 50V CapPack.
Helis: CC CapPack is highly recommended for all 500 class and smaller heli applications where Y harnesses and long wires can bleed voltage, and hard collective pulls can strain even the most powerful batteries.
Surface Vehicles: With their high torque requirements - going from 0 to 100% throttle isn't easy on controllers or batteries - RC cars and trucks put enormous loads on brushless power systems. Use CC CapPacks in high performance applications (IE drag racing and high speed runs) to help your system power through the abuse.
Fixed Wing Aircraft: Larger electric power systems lead to larger electric powered aircraft, and sometimes the distance between the battery pack and the ESC grows beyond the length of the wires installed on the components. Adding wire also adds inductance, which can increase the ripple voltage in a system. CC CapPack essentially negates the ripple caused by the addition of up to 12 inches of length to the battery wires.
Note: All Castle controllers with data logging capabilities can report the ripple voltage they encounter during use. Ripple voltage peaks should always be less than 10% of the total pack voltage; the smaller the ripple voltage the better. If an application exhibits more than 10% ripple voltage under peak loads, the user should consider using higher discharge (C Rating) batteries, shorter wires, higher current connectors, better gearing or a smaller load.
Multiple CapPacks may be used in an application. They should all be installed as close to the ESC as possible.

Refund Policy
You have the right to cancel within 7 working days after the day you take receipt of goods. You must notify us within this time that you wish to cancel. You are required to take good care of the goods and return them to us at your own cost within 30 days. Your product must be complete, unused and in ‘as new’ condition (e.g. if you have opened the box to examine the product you must have done so without damaging or marking the product in any way). It should be returned with the original box, packing and accessories. If the returned item is in a condition which does not enable us to resell as new, we reserve the right to make a charge from any refund to cover this cost. We recommend that goods are returned by recorded or insured delivery. If you would like to phone our despatch department we can arrange to have the item(s) picked up. We will subtract the return cost from your refund. No refund will be provided for lost goods being returned to us, as this is the responsibility of the sender. We cannot cancel your purchase when: • The seal is broken on any software in the case of a simulator. Special Orders - If the goods were a special order that we do not have in stock and have had to order specially - If you cancel we reserve the right to charge a restocking fee of 10%. If we send a substitute without first checking that the substitute is acceptable then consumers are not expected to pay return carriage costs. These rights are in addition to those relating to faulty or misdescribed goods. If goods are returned as faulty, generally we will provide a replacement. If the item is of a ‘ready to go’ type model eg. Helicopter, plane, car etc. the item will be sent back to the supplier for a decision to be made in respect of a refund or replacement. Only then will a decision be made
