    20A SimonK ESCs 1. What is “Firmware”? Generally speaking, firmware is code program built into the micro controller unit (MCU) of electronic products. After the micro controller unit is powered up, the firmware will control MCU’s signals. Since the factory will download the firmware to the MCU’s Flash memory, many people call this process “Flashing”.
  • Page 12 For modelers who do not have any knowledge about MCU, the flashing process is difficult. Or some model flyers just need their models fly well and do not care about flashes. If you are in one of them, you can choose Red Pawz already flashed ESC. 6. Install your ESCs We believe it is easy for you to install ESCs to multi-rotor platform.
  • Page 13 8. How to do throttle calibration Normally, you do not need to do throttle calibration for new multicopter ESCs. However, in some special cases, you still need to do it. Remove your props, and disconnect the battery. Push your radio throttle to maximum, connect the flight battery, wait for the 3 beeps(di da di), wait for 1s, you will hear a short beep(di).

    Flying with competitors If a few simple rules are followed, quad racing can be a lot of fun. 1) NEVER land near another pilot. This is an absolutely golden rule. Landing your quad near another pilot, especially one who is at a significant distance, is like screaming in the ear of someone listening to a whisper at the other side of a room.
