Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc I've got a couple of Hobbywing 860's that I bought for the Clod Buster, and one unused for a truck TBD, so I probably won't pick this up. I wonder if these are similar to the 1080's at all much the way the 860 was actually a re-purposed 1060. |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc A super 1080. |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc So is this the 4s capable 1080 I was hoping for? Looks to have all the 1080 features besides the selectable 6v/7.4v bec, but at least the amperage is up to 4.... sooo close! |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc MEH on the on/off SWITCH, i like the power button on the 1080. Maybe there's a reason why they used that, instead of a power button like the 1080 ? (.. Don't know the correct terms for the on/off buttons ..) |

Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc I'm running the HW860 in a twin motor tug boat and it works very well. The HW880 would provide a bit more capacity. |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc Has anyone used this in a Mad torque I think it would work good. |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc The difference I see with the 880 on/off switch is there is no programming button built in, like the 1080 has, so programming probably has to be done with the LED programming box. Wouldn't be an issue for me as I find it way easier to program the 1080 with the programming box rather than playing around with a programming button. Keep 1 program box in my RC workshop and have another in my trail pack in case field adjustments are required on the run. Nothing on the Hobbywing website to say the program box is included with the 880. I would assume it is the same box as supplied with the 1080. |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc Cheap 4s brushed. I like. BTW why is it called a dual ESC if the outputs are merely parallel? Any ESC can be a dual ESC by that logic. Anyway, I think I'm getting one. :D |

Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc This has been up for a while. Does anyone have any feedback? Can you use this with one motor if you choose to do so? |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc I guess no one has feedback, thats disappointing. I have continued searching for information on the WD 880 and have some communication with Hobbywing since my previous post: Q. Would the quicrun 880 esc allow me the option of using one motor instead of two? i am aware the qr wp 1080 is designed for one motor. asked on April 9, 2019 A. Yes, the 880 will run single motor as well. HOBBYWING North America Seller · April 9, 2019 Q. ... will the WP 1080 do anything the 880 will not do? A. The size would be the basic difference overall. The 880 is larger than the 1080 ESC. Features and adjustability, are the same. You can check out the instruction manuals and see the "Programmable Items" section #3, to see a list of each products adjustable features. We also have a video that explains the features of each, and how they work as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7vSVPh3KuQ&t= Q. ... I would appreciate verification of my understanding of the Brushed Motor limit data at the bottom of the spec sheets. The 880 Dual says with a Brushed Motor Limit with a 2S LiPo is 12T or RPM 3000@7.4v. Does that mean the most turns the motor can have is 12? It is 10T on the WP 1080. A. A turn limit is the "Low" limit, so you can run that listed turn motor and "above" that turn. My response: Thanks for the clarification. I placed my order. I have had my RC for a few years, and it has had major makeovers by friends. I have never got into the details. Now I have taken a deeper interest. As a RC owner I'm somewhat a veteran, on knowledge I am a newbie. Hopefully the info above will be of value to others. |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc Perfect for my sons xr10 build. I should be picking one up soon. |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc Has anybody got some run time on these yet? I had this thought... I just picked up a Bully2 rtr (minus radio, I bought it "used" but it had never been run) and while the dig function works, it kinda lags, and the esc is not smooth at all. I'd like to run dual esc's (not just dual outputs on 1 esc) and have the ability to run 4s. I've heard of people running dual 1080's, but those can't run 4s. What do you guys think about a pair of these 880's, de-cased/stripped of unnecessary leads & switches, only running 1 motor from each? I'm not opposed to spending more if I absolutely need to, but I don't think I'd really benefit from higher end esc's at my level of use. Dual 880's sounds reasonable in my pea brain since they're cheaper than 1080's ($33 each vs $42, and I already have the necessary programmer) and have the same programmable features, which have been adequate for me. I know they're going to be physically larger than BRmini's, FXR's, or even 1080's, but by de-casing them, and ditching RC4WD's dig unit I'll still be ahead of where I'm at as far as size/weight. The lower voltage bec won't be a concern as I'll either throw a CC bec or possibly a 2s rx pack in the car to power the servo (either another 2290 or an A700) anyway. If I'm out of my mind, I'd like to hear why I shouldn't do it? |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc I know this is old but I’m looking for info on the 880. The specs say it’s compatible with 775 motors. But then it only lists motor limits for 540 and 550 motors based on battery size. Where is the info for 775 motors? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc Is this taking the place of the 1080 as the "go to" brushed ESC now? Does anyone have a photo of them side by side for a size comparison? The 1080 is perfect in my SCX10ii and just wondering how much bigger it is? |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc 3 Attachment(s) Bigger but not big, IMO. I don’t really have enough experience to comment on your other thoughts. This one runs a 13T Crawlmaster Sport on 4S regularly, no problem and stays really cool, like ambient temperature cool as far as I can report, on stock gearing. |

Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc Finally got mine off the slow boat. Paid $23 to aliexpress. So far I'm happy with it. The start speed is not as good as with a castle or holmes hobbies esc but it's not bad. Same as with the 1080. But for the price and the fact it can run 4s I will be getting more.

Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc Excellent! It’s pretty cool, right? I’m sure there’s mo-better stuff out there, but it’s almost inconceivable that you get this kind of versatility for $23, and programmable like a 1080? Lol, stoked you wanted to try it out and I wanna hear what you do with programming. I like ideas and most of mine are still falling off the learning curve. Cheers. Linc |
Re: Hobbywing wp-880 dual brushed waterproof esc There are 2 downsides to the 880 over the 1080 IMO and neither of them are that bad. 1) It's a larger Heavier ESC, Unless you're going for a super lightweight rig this probably doesn't matter at all. 2) The Initial start up speed. Now I am not 100% certain that this is different then the 1080, but i think it is. I have a crawlmaster pro 550 running on 4s. With freewheeling disabled I can get the motor to buzz and then slowly turn, once I enable freewheeling for the active drag brake (necessary for a crawler IMO) the initial start speed jumps to like 60rpm (guessing). So you can not crawl as slow before the esc registers no input. It's basically cutting off the bottom end of the throttle that doesn't have enough power for most motors to move the vehicle effectively, but with a nice $80 motor this is useable throttle being trimmed off. In the outdoors on the rocks I might not notice it. But in my house I do. In the end it's just what's more important, 4s power or initial startup speed. If you don't use freewheeling for downhill control then the 880 is better and cheaper but no included programmer (same as the 1080 programmer, so you probably already have one any ways.) If you incorrectly believe there is no need for 4s power in a crawler then the 1080 is best for crawling. |
