Operation
* Install/Solder the relevant battery connector (Battery Specific) to the battery wires.Red
to +ve and Black to -ve. (WARNING! Reversing the battery polarity will destroy your
ESC and void the warranty.)
* Connect supplied BEC wire(200mm) to 3pin port match the (- + s) between the receiver
connector and ESC.
* Connect the 3 motor wires(Brushless motor) or 2 motor wire(Brushed Motor) to the
motor. The connector suggest use the ESC connected plug. Match the label of the ESC
Output (A, B, C) to the Tablabels on the motor when soldering. Avoid soldering each joint
for longer than 5 seconds. Prior to operation make sure you have not created a short by
either creating a wire bridge or solder bridge on the solder tabs on the motor.
(WARNING! Improper wiring may damage the ESC and void the warranty.)
* Connect the sensor cable between the ESC sensor plug and the Motor sensor plug.(
* Connect the receiver plug to the CH2/throttle pin of the receiver.
Radio & Esc setup
Transmitter Settings:
Throttle Travel Maximum / 100%
Brake Travel Maximum / 100%
Throttle Exponential Start with 0%
Throttle Neutral Trim Center / 0
Throttle Servo Reverse Reverse (Futaba, KO, Sanwa)
Initial set-up of the throttle end-points of the ESC:
* Connect the power wires of the ESC to a fully charged battery set; making sure the
polarity is correct.
* Bind your receiver and transmitter first if your radio requires you to do so.
* Turn on the transmitter and hold the throttle at full brake position.
* Turn on ESC and listen for 2 beeps.
* After you hear the 2 beeps, apply full throttle and listen for another 2 beeps.
* Once you hear the 2 beeps, release the throttle to neutral position.
* A beep will then sound, signifying that the ESC endpoints have been successfully set.
Note! If you do not hear the beeping sound as described above, try reversing the throttle
reverse setting in the transmitter.

Detailed Explanation of each Function Menu items
1) Running Mode
Froward/Brake-------This function the car will not have reverse function, Just forward and brake.
Forward/Rev--------- This function the car will reverse immediately when the throttle brake the car.
Froward/Brk/Rev--- Set this function the first touch of throttle brake the car will have brake function, and if you release to center
position after brake and continue brake again the reverse function will appear.
2) Battery Type
Lipo, Li-Fe or Nixx select.
3.) Battery Cut-Off Voltage
Lipo --- Low ------ cut off at 2.9V/cell
Middle -- cut off at 3.2V/cell
High ----- cut off at 3.4V/cell

Disable - No cut off protect

4) Initial start force
Usually the throttle force starts from 1% to 100%; it can let you get the best linear control feeling. This function can let you get a
more aggressive feeling in the throttle. You can choose the throttle start point at 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% or 35% to 100%.
This function comment is used in brushed motors, because the power of brushed motors is typically weak than brushless motors.
5) Punch
Allows you to change the punch of the ESC (Level 1 to Level 5). Level 1 has the most miniature punch and Level 5 has the highest
punch. Adjust punch level to maximize acceleration speed with minimum wheel spin.
6) PWM(Driver Freq)
Allows you to change the forward drive frequency of the ESC ("2K to 24K From six-step)
* The 2K setup will give you good punch at the low end.
* The 24K setup will result in strong mid to top end.
* Experiment to find out what suits your driving style best.
7) Timing
Allows you to adjust the timing of the motor (0º-100º Mode 1º increments): Generally speaking, in brushless systems, an increase in
timing will result in an increase in the RPM of the motor. However, an increase in timing also will decrease the efficiency of the
system, thus generates heat on the ESC and motor.
8.) Turbo Timing
Turbo Timing is unique to brushless systems because the ESC can simulate motor timing advance. While mechanical timing
advance in a brushed motor system is limited by the physical phasing of the motor, brushless ESC timing advance can push beyond
that physical limit. As a result, motors can run at a super-high RPM in the Turbo Timing mode, resulting in a sensation of having a
2nd gear/Turbo for top speed. This menu allows you to adjust the amount of Turbo Timing in your rake ESC in 1º increments. (The
"Turbo Timing" should never be greater in value than Timing)
9) Motor rotation
CCW — Motor clockwise rotation, fit for over 90% car kit.
CW — Motor anti-colckwise rotation, fit for some special car kit.
10) Drag Brake
Set the automatic brake force applied when the throttle returns to neutral position (8 steps from Off to 100%):
* 60%, 80% and 100% Drag Brake recommend used in Crawl only.
11) Max Reverse Force
Control the Maximum Reverse power when you Reverse the car.
12) Brake Punch
When you set Punch 6, the brake time will follow your throttle brake simple and direct, if you used Punch 1-5 the brake
feeling have something ABS, get more smooth.
-
13) Brake PWM(Brake Freq)
Brake PWM operates similar to PWM except it affects the braking instead of the throttle (4 steps from 600hz to 4khz)
* At 600 Hz, the Drag brake and the Brake force will feel the punchiest.
* At 4k Hz, the Drag brake and the Brake will feel smooth.
14) Neutral Range
Set the sensitive relay to your throttle feeling, preset in 9%.
15) Motor Type
This is a special function of the "RUN PLUS" ESC, it can let you choose two different type of motor, Brushless motor or
Brushed motor, but please carefully to select the "Value" of "Item" 15, because Improper configuration may damage the ESC.
Li-Fe — Low ------ cut off at 2.2V/cell Nixx — Low
Middle--- cut off at 2.5V/cell Middle — cut off at 4.0V/ total
High ------ cut off at 2.8V/cell High
