  Hard Cut Off 

 
Using Your New ESC 

Improper polarity or short circuit will damage the ESC therefore it is your responsibility to double check 
all plugs for proper polarity and first fit BEFORE connecting the battery pack. 

Alert Tones 

The ZTW ESC is equipped with audible alert tones to indicate abnormal conditions at power up. 
1. Continuous beeping tone (****) – Indicates that throttle stick is not in the minimum position. 
2. Single beeping tone followed by a one second pause (*    *    *    *)– Indicates that the battery pack 
voltage exceeds the acceptable range. (The ESC automatically checks and verifies the battery voltage 
once the battery is connected). 

Built-in Intelligent ESC Safety Functions 

1. 

Over-heat protection

: When the temperature of ESC exceeds 110 deg C, the ESC will reduce the 

output power to allow it too cool. 
2. 

Lost Throttle signal protection

: The ESC will automatically cut power to the motor when it detects 

a lost of throttle signal for 2 seconds, then the motor will emit continuous beeping tone. 

POWERING UP THE ESC FOR THE FIRST TIME & SETTING THE AUTOMATIC THROTTLE 
CALIBRATION 

The ZTW ESC features Automatic Throttle Calibration to attain the smoothest throttle response and 
resolution throughout the entire throttle range of your transmitter. This step is done once to allow the 
ESC to “learn and memorize” your Transmitter’s throttle output signals and only repeated if you change 
your transmitter. 
1.Switch your Transmitter ON and set the throttle stick to its maximum position. 
2.Connect the battery pack to the ESC. Wait for about 2 seconds, the motor will beep for twice, then put 
the throttle in the minimum position, the motor will also beep, which indicates that your ESC has got the 
signal range of the throttle from your transmitter. 

The throttle is now calibrated and your ESC is ready for operation. 

 

ENTERING THE PROGRAMMING MODE 

 

1.

 

Switch your Transmitter 

ON

 and set the throttle to its 

maximum 

position. 

2.

 

Connect the battery pack to the ESC. 

3.

 

Wait until you hear two short beeps (

●●

   

●●

   

●●

   

●●

) confirming that the ESC has now entered the 

programming mode. 

4.

 

If the throttle stick is left in the

 maximum

 position beyond 5 seconds, the ESC will begin the 

sequence from one function and its associated setting options to another. (Please refer to the table 

below to cross reference the functions with the audible tones). 

5.

 

When the desired tone for the function and setting option is reached, move the throttle stick down 

to its 

minimum

 position. ESC will emit two beeps (**) confirming the new setting has been stored. 

6.

 

The ESC only allows the setting of one function at a time. 

Therefore should you require making changes to other function, disconnect the battery
