1. INSTALLATION
The NOSRAM MATRIX EVOLUTION ISTC is supplied with 12AWG power-wires without connectors. Be very
careful with the correct wire sequence/colors since an incorrect connection may damage the speed-cont-
rol! Avoid creating solder bridges on the solder-tabs and isolate all connections carefully.
Caution: Avoid soldering longer then 5sec per soldering joint when replacing the power wires on the speed-
control and motor to prevent possible damage due to overheating of the components!
• Connect the speed-control to the receiver (position: Channel 2)
BRUSHLESS MOTOR:
• Blue power-wire  Speedo MOT.A to motor „A"
• Yellow power-wire  Speedo MOT.B to motor „B"
• Orange power-wire  Speedo MOT.C to motor „C"
• Connect the hall sensor cable to the speed-control and the motor.

• Doublecheck all connections before connecting the speed-control to a battery.
CAUTION: If battery is connected with reversed polarity it will destroy your speed-control!
• Red power-wire  Speedo BAT+ to battery „Plus"
• Black power-wire  Speedo BAT- to battery „Minus"
• The speed-control is now ready to be set-up (see section 6).

RECEIVER CONNECTING WIRE: RECEIVER CONNECTING WIRE:
This NOSRAM speed-control is equipped with an NOSRAM Multicon speed-control is equipped with an NOSRAM Multicon receiver
wire. As supplied, it will easily fit in all ordinary receivers.
HALL SENSOR WIRE:
This bi-directional multipole wire (which comes with the motor and NOT the speed-control!) connects the
speed-control and the motor. Do not alter or modify this cable! There are replaceable/optional hall sensor
wires available: • #92510 (20cm) • #92520 (10cm)
POWER WIRES:
For maximum performance, 12AWG power wires without any connectors are used. The unique splitted
solder-tabs allow easy and convenient replacement of the power wires. Nevertheless some soldering skills
are required. Avoid soldering longer then 5sec per soldering joint to prevent possible damage to the speed-
control due to overheating of the components! There is a full 12awg replacement power wire set available:

4. INSTALLATION TIPS
• Mount the speedo using the supplied thick/black doubled-sided tape.
• Position the speed-control where it is protected in the event of a crash.
• Install the speed-control so that you have easy access to the connector and buttons.
• Make sure there is enough clearance (about 3cm) between the speed-control, power-wires, antenna
and receiver. Avoid any direct contact between power components, the receiver or the antenna. This can
cause interference. If interference occurs, position the components at a different place in the model.
• The aerial should be run vertically up and away from the receiver. Avoid contact with any parts made of
carbon fibre or metal. If the aerial is too long, don't coil up the excess length. It is better to cut it down
to a length of about 35 cm. See also the instructions supplied with your radio control system.
• Make sure there are enough cooling slits in the body. This will increase the performance and life of all the
electronic components.
HEATSINK: To achieve best perfomance even under extreme conditions, the heatsink has been directly
mounted to the speed-control. This ensures the best possible heat transfer away from the speed-control.
Caution: Never attempt to remove the heatsink, because the speed-control will get damaged if you do this.
The heatsink is an integral part of the speed-control and therefore cannot be removed.
Because of the physical principles of brushless technology, the speed-controls do get a little hotter then
brushed systems. Therefore it is required to let the speed-control cool down completely after every run.
