BEEP SOUND AND LED STATUS

The Meaning of Beep Sound
∞ 1 short Beep: The battery is NiMH/NiCd
∞ 2 short Beeps: The battery is 2S Lipo
∞ 3 short Beeps: The battery is 3S Lipo
∞ 1 long Beep: Self-test and throttle calibration is OK, the ESC is ready to run
THROTTLE

PROTECTION FUNCTIONS

1. LOW VOLTAGE CUT-OFF PROTECTION: If the voltage of battery pack is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds, the ESC
will enter the protection mode.
When the car stops, the red LED blinks to indicate the low voltage cut-off protection has been activated.
2S Lipo
Output reduces 50% at 6.5V
Output cuts off at 6.0V, cannot be
recovered
2. OVER-HEAT PROTECTION: When the internal temperature of the ESC is higher than a factory preset threshold for 5 seconds, the ESC will
reduce and cut off the output power.
When the car stops, the red LED blinks to indicate the over-heat protection has been activated. If the ESC cools down to 80 Celsius degrees, the
output power is recovered to normal state.
3. THROTTLE SIGNAL LOSS PROTECTION: The ESC will cut off the output power if the throttle signal has been lost for 0.1 second.
RÉSOLUTION DES PROBLÈMES
TROUBLE
After power on, motor can't work, no sound
is emitted, and LED is off.
After power on, motor can't work; red LED
blinks.
The car runs backward while giving throttle.
(The motor runs in the opposite direction)
The car can't go backward.
The car can't go forward, but can go
backward.
The motor doesn't work, but the LED in the
ESC works normally.
The motor suddenly stops running while in
working state
The car cannot get top speed and the red
LED doesn't solid on at full throttle
Motor is cogging when accelerated quickly.
8
∞ When the throttle stick is in neutral range, red LED is off
∞ Forward, brake or reverse at partial throttle, red LED blinks
∞ Forward, brake or reverse at full throttle, red LED is solid
SET THE ESC
3S Lipo
Output reduces 50% at 9.75V
Output cuts off at 9.0V, cannot be
recovered
POSSIBLE REASON
The ESC doesn't get its working voltage; Connections
between battery pack and ESC are broken.
Switch is damaged.
Throttle signal is abnormal.
Automatic throttle range calibration is failed.
The wire connections between ESC and the motor
need to be changed.
The jumper position is wrong.
The neutral point of throttle channel is changed or
drifted.
The direction of throttle channel is not correct.
The connections between motor and ESC are broken.
Motor is damaged.
The throttle signal is lost.
Low voltage cut-off protection or Over-heat cut-off
protection has been activated.
Some setting in the transmitter are incorrect.
The battery has limited discharge ability.
Motor RPM is too high, the gear ratio is too
aggressive.
Something wrong in the driving system of the car.
LED Status
5-9 cells NiMH
Output reduces 50% at 4.5V
Output cuts off at 4.0V, cannot be
recovered
SOLUTION
Check the battery wires connection or replace the
defective connectors.
Replace the switch.
Check the throttle wire connection; make sure it is
plugged into the throttle channel of the receiver.
Set the "TRIM" of throttle channel to 0 or turn the knob
to its neutral position.
Swap two wire connections between the ESC and the
motor.
Check the jumper and plug it to the correct position.
Set the "TRIM" of throttle channel to 0 or turn the knob
to its neutral position.
Reset the direction of throttle channel from original
"NOR" to "REV", or from original "REV" to "NOR".
Check the connections and replace the defective
connectors.
Replace the motor.
Check the transmitter and the receiver.
Check the throttle wire connection.
Replace the battery pack, or cool down the ESC.
Check the settings.
Set D/R, EPA, ATL to 100% or turn the knobs to
maximum value.
Set TRIM to 0 or turn the knob to its neutral position.
Use battery with better discharge ability.
Use motor with lower RPM, or use smaller pinion to get
softer gear ratio.
Check the driving system of the car.
