Warnings
• To avoid short circuits, ensure that all wires and connections must be well insulated before connecting the ESC to related devices.
• Ensure all devices are well connected to prevent poor connections and avoid damage to your electronic devices.
• Read through the manuals of all power devices and chassis and ensure the power configuration is rational before using this unit.
• Please use a soldering iron with the power of at least 50W to solder all input/output wires and connectors.
• Do not hold the vehicle in the air and rev it up to full throttle, as rubber tires can "expand" to extreme size or even crack to cause serious injury.
• Stop immediate usage once the casing of the ESC exceeds 90℃/194℉ as this may cause damage to both the ESC and motor. Hobbywing recommends setting the "ESC Thermal
Protection" to 105℃/221℉ (this refers to the internal temperature of the ESC).
• Users must always disconnect the batteries after use as the current on the ESC is consuming continuously if it is connected to the batteries (even if the ESC is turned off). The battery will
completely be discharged and may result in damage to the battery or ESC when it is connected for a long period of time. This WILL NOT be covered under warranty.

Connections

Battery
Receiver
This is an extremely powerful brushless motor system. For your safety and the safety of those around you, we strongly recommend removing the pinion gear attached to
the motor before performing calibration and programming functions with this system. It is also advisable to keep the wheels in the air when you turn on the ESC.
ATTENTION
1. Motor Wiring
The motor wiring is different between the sensored and the sensorless; please only follow the introductions below.
• Sensored Motor Wiring
There is strict wiring order from the ESC to the motor, the three A/B/C ESC wires must connect to the three A/B/C motor wires correspondingly. Next, connect the ESC sensor port and
the motor sensor port with the stock 6-pin sensor cable. If you don't plug the sensor cable in, your ESC will still work in sensorless mode even if you're using a sensored motor.
• Sensorless Motor Wiring
Users do not need to be worried in regards to the connectivity with the A/B/C(ESC and motor) as there is no polarity. You may find it necessary to swap two wires if the motor runs in
reverse.
2. Receiver Wiring
The throttle control cable on the ESC has to be plugged into the throttle (TH) channel on the receiver. The throttle control cable has an output voltage of 6V/7.4V to the receiver and
steering servo, hence, no separate battery can be connected to the receiver. Otherwise, your ESC may be damaged.
3. External switch Connecting (Optional):
A detachable switch (stock accessory) is included in the product box. You only need to plug this switch into the 3-pin port marked with "SW" when you want to use external switch
(instead of the built-in electronic switch).
3. Battery Wiring
Proper polarity is essential. Please ensure positive (+) connects to positive (+), and negative (-) connects to negative (-) when plugging in the battery! When reverse polarity is applied to
the ESC from the battery, it WILL damage the ESC. This WILL NOT be covered under warranty!

ESC/Radio Calibration

Begin using your ESC by calibrating with your transmitter. We strongly recommend Hobbywing users to use the "Fail Safe" function on the radio system and set (F/S) to "Output OFF" or
"Neutral Position". Example of calibrating Neutral range and Endpoint. (*The operation is same when you're using the external switch.)
1. Turn on the transmitter, ensure all parameters (D/R, Curve, ATL) on the throttle channel are at default (100%). For transmitter without LCD,
please turn the knob to the maximum, and the throttle "TRIM" to 0. Please also turn the corresponding knob to the neutral position.

flashes.
2. Start by turning on the transmitter with the ESC turned off but connected to a battery. Holding the "ON/OFF" button, the RED LED on the ESC
starts to flash (Note 2: the motor beeps at the same time), and then release the ON/OFF button immediately.
Note 2: Beeps from the motor may be low sometimes, and you can check the LED status instead.

1A. Running Mode
Option 1: Forward with Brake
Racing mode. It has only forward and brake functions.
Option 2: Forward/ Reverse with Brake
This option is known to be the "training" mode with "Forward/ Reverse with Brake" functions. Hobbywing has adopted the "DOUBLE-CLICK" method, that is your vehicle only brakes on
the 1st time you push the throttle trigger forward (brake) (1st push). The motor stops when you quickly release the throttle trigger and then re-push the trigger quickly (2nd push), only
then the vehicle will reverse. The reverse function will not work if your car does not come to a complete stop. The vehicle only reverses after the motor stops. This method is for preventing
vehicle from being accidentally reversed.
Option 3: Forward and Reverse
This mode is often used by special vehicles (rock crawler). It adopts the "SINGLE-CLICK" method. The vehicle will reverse immediately when you push the throttle trigger forward (brake).
Orange (C)
1B. Max. Reverse Force
The reverse force of the value will determine its speed. For the safety of your vehicle, we recommend using a low amount.
1C. Cutoff Voltage
Sensor port of motor
Sets the voltage at which the ESC lowers or removes power to the motor in order to either keep the battery at a safe minimum voltage (for LiPo batteries). The ESC monitors the battery
voltage all the time, it will immediately reduce the power to 30% (in 3 seconds) and cut off the output 10 seconds later when the voltage goes below the cutoff threshold. The RED LED
will flash a short, single flash that repeats (☆, ☆, ☆) to indicate the low-voltage cutoff protection is activated. Please set the "Cutoff Voltage" to "Disabled" or customize this item if you
are using NiMH batteries.
Option 1: Disabled
The ESC does not cut the power off due to low voltage. We do not recommend using this option when you use any LiPo battery as you will irreversibly damage the product. You need to
select this option when you are using a NiMH pack.
Motor
Option 2: Auto
The ESC calculates the corresponding cutoff voltage as per the number of LiPo cells it detects and the "3.3V/cell" rule. For example, if the ESC detects a 2S, the cutoff voltage for the
battery shall be 6.6V.
Option 3: Customized
The customized cutoff threshold is a voltage for the whole battery pack (adjustable from 3.0V to 8.0V). Please calculate the value as per the number of LiPo cells you are using.
For example, when you use a 2S and you want the cutoff voltage for each cell is 2.8V, you will need to set this item to 5.6V.
1D. ESC Thermal Protection
The output from the ESC will be cut off with the value you have preset.
The GREEN LED flashes (☆, ☆, ☆) when the ESC temperature reaches to the preset value. The output will not resume until the ESC temperature gets down.
Warning! Please do not disable this function unless you're in a competition. Otherwise the high temperature may damage your ESC and even your motor.
1E. Motor Thermal Protection
The GREEN LED flashes (☆☆, ☆☆, ☆☆) when the motor temperature reaches to the preset value. The output will not resume until the motor temperature gets down.
Warning! Please do not disable this function unless you're in a competition. Otherwise the high temperature may damage your motor and even your ESC. For non-Hobbywing motor,
the ESC may get this protection activated too early/late because of the different temperature sensor inside the motor. In this case, please disable this function and monitor the motor
temperature manually.
1F. BEC Voltage
Option 1: 6.0V
It's applicable to ordinary servos. Do not use this option with high voltage servos; otherwise your servos may not function normally due to insufficient voltage.
Option 2: 7.4V
It's applicable to high voltage servos. Do not use this option with ordinary servos; otherwise your servos may be burnt due to high voltage.
1G. Remote Off
Option 1: Enabled
Users can simply push and hold the brake trigger for 6 seconds. This option allows the user to turn off the ESC without pushing the ON/OFF button switch.
Option 2: Disabled
Users must turn off the ESC by pressing the ON/OFF switch button from the ESC.
1H. Sensor Mode
Full Sensored
The power system will work in the "sensored" mode at all times. The efficiency and drivability of this mode is at the highest.
2A. Throttle Rate Control
This item is used to control the throttle response. It can be adjustable from 1 to 30 (step: 1), the lower the throttle rate, the more the limit will be on the throttle response. A suitable rate
can help driver to control his vehicle properly during the starting-up process. Generally, you can set it to a high value to have a quick throttle response if you are proficient at throttle control.
2B. Throttle Curve
The throttle curve parameter reconciles the position of the throttle trigger (in throttle zone) and the actual ESC throttle output. It is linear by default and we can change it to non-linear via
adjusting the throttle curve. For example, if adjust it to +EXP, the throttle output at the early stage will be higher (than the output when the curve is linear); if it is adjusted to –EXP,
the throttle output at the early stage will be lower (than the output when the curve is linear).
2C. Neutral Range
As not all transmitters have the same stability at "neutral position", please adjust this parameter as per your preference. You can adjust to a bigger value when this happens.
2D. Coast
The RPM of the motor will be lowered gradually when throttle is reduced. The vehicle will not reduce speed abruptly when the throttle is reduced to return to the neutral position.
The bigger the value, the more the "COAST" will be felt. Example, COAST of 0 deactivates, and a COAST of 20% would be the maximum amount of COAST.
