adjustment and 4 steps of initial brake force adjustment. Also compatible with the mechanical disc-brake system.

Multiple protection features: Low voltage cut-off protection / Over-heat protection / Throttle signal loss protection /
Motor blocked protection

Easily programmed with the SET button of the ESC, and also compatible with pocket-sized Program Card (Optional
equipment) and the advanced LCD Program Box (Optional equipment).
 Special program port for connecting to the LED Program Card or the LCD Program Box. User needn't unplug the Rx
lead from receiver when programming the ESC.

【BEGIN TO USE THE NEW ESC】

WARNING! THIS BRUSHLESS SYSTEM IS VERY
POWERFUL! FOR SAFETY, PLEASE ALWAYS
KEEP THE WHEELS AWAY FROM THE TRACK
WHEN YOU BEGIN TO SWITCH ON THE ESC.
1. Connect The ESC, Motor, Receiver, Battery
And Servo
The #A, #B, #C wires of the ESC can be connected
with the motor wires freely (without any sequence).
If the motor runs in the opposite direction, please
swap any two wire connections.
2. Throttle Range Setting (Throttle Range
Calibration)
In order to make the ESC match the throttle range,
you must calibrate it when you begin to use a new
ESC, or a new transmitter, or change the settings of
EZRUN-WP-SC8
120A / 760A
Sensorless brushless motors
1/10 SCT/Truggy / Buggy /Monster

neutral position of the throttle stick, ATV or EPA parameters, etc. Otherwise the ESC cannot work properly.
The following pictures show how to set the throttle range with a Futaba
A) Switch off the ESC, turn on the
transmitter, set the direction of throttle
channel to "REV", set the "EPA/ATV"
value of throttle channel to "100%", and
disable the ABS function of your
transmitter.
B) Hold the "SET" key and then switch on
the ESC, and release the "SET" key as
soon as possible when the red LED
begins to flash. (Note2 )
If you don't release the "SET" key as soon as the red LED begins to flash, the ESC will enter the program mode,
Note2:
in such a case, please switch off the ESC and re-calibrate the throttle range again from step A to step D.
C) Set the 3 points according to
the steps shown in the pictures
on the right side.
1) The neutral point
Move the throttle stick at the
neutral point, and then click the
SET key, the green LED
flashes 1 time.
2) The end point of forward
direction
Move the throttle stick at the
end point of forward direction,
and then click the SET key, the
green LED flashes 2 times.
3) The end point of backward
direction
Move the throttle stick at the
end point of backward
direction, and then click the
SET key, the green LED
flashes 3 times.
D) Throttle range is calibrated;
motor can be started after 3
seconds.
3. Check The LED Status In Normal Running
a) When the throttle stick is in the neutral range, neither the Red LED nor the Green LED lights up.
b) When the car moves forward, the Red LED solidly lights; the Green LED also lights up when the throttle stick is at
the top position (100% throttle).
c) When the car brakes, the Red LED solidly lights; the Green LED also lights up when the throttle stick is at the
bottom position and the maximum brake force is set to 100%.
d) When the car reverses, the Red LED solidly lights; the Green LED also lights up when the throttle stick is at the
bottom position and the maximum reverse force is set to 100%.
4. Check The Lipo Cells Setting If You Are Using Lithium Battery
If you are using Lipo battery, we strongly suggest setting the programmable item # 11 --- "Lipo Cells" manually to avoid
the over-discharge problem. Please read the instructions on page 2.
In normal case, when the ESC is switched on, the motor will emit several "Beep" tones to express the cells amount of the
battery pack. For example, "Beep-Beep-" means 2S Lipo, "Beep-Beep-Beep-" means 3S Lipo, etc.
