1.Plan Speed Control Placement
Choose a location for the speed control that is protected from debris. To prevent radio interference, place the speed
control as far away from the radio receiver as possible and keep the power wires as short as possible. Select a location
that has good airfl ow ventilating. If the ESC gets air fl ow, it will run cooler; and that means it will be more effi cient.
2.Mount Speed Control in Vehicle
Use double-sided tape to mount the speed control in vehicle (do not use CA glue).
■ CONNECTION
1)Connect the motor sensor harness to
ESC. Insert the 6 pin connector on the
end of the motor's sensor wires into
ESC's sensor harness socket.
2)Co n n ect T h rot t l e l ead to E SC a nd
other end to the Receiver (Th rottle
Channel, Ch2)
3)Connect the motor and the ESC.
4)Connect ESC to batter pack.
*Calibration is necessary for the fi rst use
of the ESC, or whenever used with a
new/different transmitter.
Individual transmitter's signals for full
th rot tle, fu l l b rake and neut ra l va r y.
You must calibrate your ESC so that it
will operate more effectively with your
transmitter.
■ How to calibrate the ESC?
1)ESC switch OFF.
2)Connect the ESC to the battery and the motor.
3)Turn on the transmitter.
4)Press and hold the ESC switch for few seconds, the motor will ring long beep once. After that, the red LED will blink the
motor will ring like beep-beep-beep... in a row which indicates it is time to set the neutral position, full throttle and full
brake one by one. You could release the ESC switch now.
5)Keep the throttle trigger in neutral position, press the ESC switch once, the green LED will blink once then extinguish
and the motor will ring beep once which indicates the neutral position has been set.
6)Hold full throttle and press the ESC switch once, the green LED will blink twice then extinguish and the motor will ring
twice like beep-beep which indicates the full throttle has been set.
7)Move the throttle trigger to full brake and hold full brake, press the ESC switch once, the green LED will blink three
times then extinguish and the motor will ring three times like beep-beep-beep which indicates the full brake has been
set.
8)After the calibration is fi nished, keep the throttle in neutral position, the red LED will stay ON, the ESC and the motor is
ready to work.
■ ESC ON/OFF AND LED INDICATOR
1.ESC ON/OFF: When the ESC is OFF, press the switch once, the red LED will stay on (The factory default motor turbo
timing is 10ー), then the ESC is ready to work. When the ESC is on, press and hold the switch for 1 second, the LED will
extinguish and the ESC is OFF.
CAUTION:
1.After running at full load, the ESC will be very hot. In this case, please turn off the ESC after it cools down.
2.When the motor is running, the ESC can't be powered off by pressing the switch; when the motor stops working, the ESC
can be powered off. In an emergency, please disconnect the battery to power off the ESC.
3.When the motor is running, keep the trigger of the transmitter to full brake for 4 seconds, the ESC will be off.
