We tested this system three times during manufacture. It was working normally when it left our factory.
If damage in transit has occurred, please return to place of purchase for attention.
THIS ESC IS GUARANTEED FOR ONE YEAR.
INCLUDED ARE ONE OR THE OTHER OF THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS:
You will supply the 2.4 Ghz 4 channel (or more) Digital Proportional SPEKTRUM R/C.
NB:
To use a 4 ch RX it may be necessary to remove the 4 x ch RX from its case to fit the pcb.
You will also supply a locomotive or trail car, the 7.2 – 24 volt traction batteries (depending on ESC), a fuse,
an ON-OFF switch and wires where necessary to connect the ESC to the battery and motor(s).
Where soldering is necessary, we recommend a low wattage soldering iron and resin core solder.
THIS BRAND OF R/C HAS BECOME VERY POPULAR. TO AVOID CONFUSION WITH OTHER
OPERATORS, WE SUGGEST YOU MARK THE TX TO SHOW WHICH LOCO IT OPERATES.

Summary of Contents for RCS PRO-3
- Page 1 USE ONLY OPERATING PROGRAM PRO-v1. DO NOT CONNECT TO MAINS POWER (110 – 240V AC). THE # PRO-3, # PRO-6 & # PRO-PnP CAN BE USED WITH TRACK AND/OR BATTERY POWER. THEY ALL HAVE CONSTANT BRIGHTNESS DIRECTIONAL LIGHTS & 4 SOUND TRIGGERS.
- Page 2 - 2 - INSTALLING ESC’s. ESC’s can use most SPEKTRUM 2.4 GHz digital proportional R/C’s with four (4) or more servo outputs. Be advised some RX’s have wider spaced servo pins such as the AR6210 will not fit into the # DEC-v3. We have conducted development &...
- Page 3 The # PRO-PnP White (F) - Yellow (R) 2 wire cable needs to be connected to the ESC part. See the wiring diagram. The # PRO-3 & # PRO-6 require connecting the lights to the 4 x screw terminals as per the ESC diagram.
- Page 4 1.6 The “BINDING” plug is removed & stored safely. The R/C system is now ready for speed calibration. RCS offers an optional extra # BINDER cable and switch. When fitted this will enable any loco to be bound to any TX without requiring access to the insides of the loco.
- Page 5 - 5 - 2. CALIBRATION. The 2 step in system preparation is to calibrate the direction & throttle sticks. Even though this step is only needed once when first setting up a new ESC, from time to time it is advisable to run through the procedure. A pushbutton is supplied for both Calibration and system Programming.
- Page 6 - 6 - 3. PROGRAMMING. Operating features of the system can be programmed from the TX using the supplied pushbutton. Programming can only take place when the system is in neutral. 3.1 START VOLTAGE. This feature is designed to equalise the starting voltage of dissimilar locos. 3.2 TOP SPEED VOLTAGE.
- Page 7 - 7 - OPERATING THE ESC’s. 4. HOW TO OPERATE AFTER COMPLETING CALIBRATION & PROGRAMMING. N.B. If fitted, the TX “RATE” switch must be set to HI. THE THROTTLE STICK MUST BE ALL THE WAY DOWN BEFORE TURNING THE SYSTEM ON. Always turn the TX on first.
- Page 8 - 8 - MU’ing LOCO CONSISTS. MULTIPLE LOCOS IN A CONSIST. ESC’s are capable of MU’ing multiple locos in one consist of locos. You can add as many speed matched locos to the loco consist, as you like. Each loco must be bound to the controlling TX.
