Protection Functions:
1. Low voltage cut-off (LVC) 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.
LVC protection for WP1040-BRUSHED
2S LiPo 3S LiPo 5-9 Cells NiMH
Output reduces 50% at 6.5V Output cuts
off at 6.0V, cannot be recovered
Output reduces 50% at 9.75V Output
cuts off at 9.0V, cannot be recovered
Output reduces 50% at 4.5V Output cuts
off at 4.0V, cannot be recovered
LVC protection for WP1040-BRUSHED Crawler & Boat
2S LiPo 3S LiPo 5-9 Cells NiMH
Output cuts off at 6.5V. If the throttle
stick moves to neutral and then up again,
the output can be recovered to 50%. If
the voltage drops to 6.5V again, the
above process repeats in circles.
Output cuts off at 9.75V. If the throttle
stick moves to neutral and then up again,
the output can be recovered to 50%. If
the voltage drops to 9.75V again, the
above process repeats in circles.
Output cuts off at 4.5V. If the throttle
stick moves to neutral and then up again,
the output can be recovered to 50%. If
the voltage drops to 4.5V again, the
above process repeats in circles.
2. Over-heat protection:
When the internal temperature of the ESC is higher than 100 Celsius degree or 212 Fahrenheit degree 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 degree (176 Fahrenheit degree) 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. The “fail safe” function of the radio system
is strongly recommended to be activated.
The difference between “BRUSHED” and “BRUSHED CRAWLER & BOAT” ESC:
“Brushed” and “Brushed - Crawler& Boat” ESCs have different backward -running modes.
“Brushed” ESC
uses “Dou ble- Click” method to make the car go backward. When you move the throttle stick from forward zone to
backward zone for the first time, the ESC begins to brake the motor, the motor speeds down but still running, so the backward
action is NOT happened at thi s moment. When the throttle stick is moved to the backward zone again (The 2nd “click”), if the motor
speed is slowed down to zero (i.e. stopped), the backward action will be activated. The “Double - Click” method prevents mistakenly
reverse when the brake function is frequently used in steering.
“Brushed - Crawler & Boat” ESC
uses “Single - click” to make the car go backward. When you move the throttle stick from forward
zone to backward zone, the car will go backward immediately. This mode is common for the Rock Crawler and tank.
The maximum reverse force (for backward running ) is 50% for the general “Brushed” ESC, 100% for the “Crawler” mode of a
“Brushed - Crawler & Boat” ESC, and 25% for the "Boat" mode of a “Brushed - Crawler & Boat” ESC.
The Low Voltage Cut-off Protection modes are different (Please check the instructions in the section of “PROTECTION
FUNCTIONS” )
