Vyxalon™ Apex Drone Drive

The Vyxalon™ Apex Drone Drive is a next-generation electronic speed controller (ESC) designed for professional drone propulsion systems. Engineered for industrial UAV, UAS, and mission-critical drone applications, the Vyxalon Apex Drone Drive combines advanced Gallium Nitride (GaN) power technology with high-speed Field-Oriented Control (FOC) to deliver exceptional propulsion efficiency, rapid throttle response, and superior thermal performance.

Powered by Allient Intelligent Controls (AiC), the drive operates with up to 100 kHz PWM switching, 25 kHz control loops, and support for both sensorless and encoder-based FOC. The Vyxalon Apex Drone Drive maximizes flight time, improves reliability, and provides precise motor control in the most demanding environments. Its lightweight IP67-rated aluminum enclosure, broad 4S – 14S voltage compatibility, and advanced protection features make it an ideal solution for professional and commercial drone platforms.
