CONNECTIONS
RADIO CALIBRATION
Motor Wiring
There is no polarity on the A/B/C motor wires. Connect the wires to the motor and ESC. If the motor runs in reverse,
reverse 2 cables to the motor.
Receiver Wiring
Plug the ESC cable to the Throttle Channel (TH/2) of the receiver.
Plug the steering servo cable to the Steering Channel (ST/1) of the receiver.
Battery Wiring
Connect the ESC power cables to the battery, making sure that the polarity is correct.
Connect the Positive (
+
) RED cable to the Positive (
+
) connector of the battery.
Connect the Negative (
-
) BLACK cable to the Negative (
-
) connector of the battery.
If you reverse the polarities on the battery, the ESC will be immediately damaged and cannot be repaired.
This is not covered by the warranty.
Begin using your ESC by calibrating with your transmitter. We strongly recommend to use the “Fail Safe” function on the
radio system and set (F/S) to “Output OFF” or “Neutral Position”. Example of calibrating Neutral range and Endpoint.
1.
Turn ON the transmitter, ensure all parameters (D/R, Curve, ATL) on the throttle channel are at default (100%). For
transmitter without LCD, please turn the knob to the maximum and the throttle “TRIM” to 0. Please also turn the
corresponding knob to the neutral position. For FutabaTM transmitter, the direction of throttle channel shall be
set to “REV”, while other radio systems shall be set to “NOR”. Please ensure the “ABS / braking function” of your
transmitter must be DISABLED.
2.
Start by turning ON the transmitter with the ESC turned OFF but connected to a battery. Holding the SET button
and press the ON/OFF button, the RED LED on the ESC starts to flash (
Note 1 the motor beeps at the same time
),
and then release the SET button immediately. (
The ESC will enter the programming mode if the SET button is not
released in 3 seconds, please restart from step 1.
)
3.
Set the neutral point, the full throttle endpoint and the full brake endpoint.
• Leave the throttle trigger at the neutral position, press the SET button, the RED LED dies out and the GREEN LED
flashes 1 time and the motor beeps 1 time to accept the neutral position.
• Pull the throttle trigger to the full throttle position, press the SET button, the GREEN LED blinks 2 times and the
motor beeps 2 times to accept the full throttle endpoint.
• Push the throttle trigger to the full brake position, press the SET button, the GREEN LED blinks 3 times and the
motor beeps 3 times to accept the full brake endpoint.
4.
The motor can be started 3 seconds after the ESC/Radio calibration is complete.
Note 1: Beeps from the motor may be low sometimes, and you can check the LED status instead.
