Robot Power Scorpion XL 2.0 Dual Channel R/C Motor Controller 20A, 5.5-28V
Utilizes advanced automotive-rated power chips
Features fully reversible H-bridge channels
Handles 30A peak current per channel
Includes built-in drive and mixing functions
Supports 5.5V to 28V battery voltage
The Robot Power Scorpion XL 2.0 Dual Channel R/C Motor Controller 20A, 5.5-28V is a versatile and high-performance speed controller designed for small robots ranging from one to twelve pounds. Utilizing advanced automotive-rated power chips, it offers exceptional power handling and load protection. This controller is ideal for sumo robots, ant and beetle weight combat robots, as well as other small robotic applications such as firefighting robots, maze solvers, and carpet rovers. It can also be used for scooters and robots up to 30 pounds, provided the motor current limits are adhered to.
The Scorpion XL features built-in drive and mixing functions, providing an all-in-one solution for small robots and other loads. It is equipped with fully reversible H-bridge channels and supports a battery voltage range of 5.5V to 28V. The controller includes metal screw terminals for secure motor and battery connections, eliminating the need for soldering. It can handle a continuous current of 12.5A with peaks up to 30A on each drive channel, and it incorporates full current and temperature limiting for enhanced reliability.
The controller is designed to work seamlessly with common R/C systems and can be driven by microcontrollers using servo command outputs. It includes a receiver battery eliminator circuit, a failsafe feature to shut off motors if the R/C signal is lost, and a calibration function to match the controller to the radio or signal source. The Scorpion XL's software is upgradeable via an in-circuit programming header.

A valid Return Authorization (RA) number must be obtained prior to returning the product. Returns without an RA number will be refused.
The RA number is valid for 30 days. The returned item must be received within that period.
The RA number must be included with the return.
Products must be returned in unused, unmodified condition (e.g., no scratches, alterations, missing parts, or signs of installation/use) and in their original packaging, suitable for resale.
Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, except in cases of a product confirmed defective through RobotShop's troubleshooting process or of a verified shipping error by RobotShop.
Refunds are processed within 7 days after receipt and inspection of the returned item.
A $100 cleaning fee may apply to domestic robots returned in used or unclean condition.
A 20% restocking fee may apply to large-quantity returns of items ordered specifically for the customer from the manufacturer or not part of RobotShop's standard inventory.
Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
Consumables — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tires, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odor-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
Build-it-yourself products and items requiring customer assembly — Including robots & kits, robot parts, and other products requiring assembly or soldering. Not eligible for return once assembled, soldered, or installed.
Digital Goods, Software, and Apps — Final sale only, due to licensing restrictions.
Clearance Items — Products identified as clearance or final sale, including end-of-life or discontinued items.
Custom-made, personalized, or special-order items — Products manufactured, configured, adapted, or built to the customer's own specifications and requirements.
On-Demand Items — Standard catalogue products not stocked by RobotShop and ordered specifically to fulfill a customer request.
While the same return policy applies, these orders require a separate contact process for returns.
