1.  Connect a fully charged battery.
2.  Turn the transmitter ON first the ESC, noting that the transmitter should always 

be ON if the ESC is ON.

3.  Keep the throttle stick at its neutral position, wait for 3 seconds to let the ESC 

perform its self test and automatic throttle calibration.

4.  When the ESC is ready to run, a long beep will sound.
5.  This calibration will be performed every time the ESC is powered on. If you are 

touching the trigger during this process the ESC will not calibrate or function, 

simply release the trigger and wait for the audible chime.

6.  Check the ESC operation to ensure you have full throttle and brake before 

driving the vehicle.

Note that you’ll need to calibrate the throttle range again when using a new 

transmitter or when changing the settings of the neutral position of the throttle 

channel, D/R, ATV, ATL or EPA. If this is not carried out the ESC may not work properly.

Understanding the LED Status Light and Alert Tones

Your Helion 40A ESC is programmed to communicate with you to let you know its 

status. 
LED in normal use

•  If the throttle trigger is in the neutral range the LED will be off.

•  The red LED blinks when the car is running forward, backward or braking.

•  The red LED lights solid when the throttle trigger is moved to the full throttle or 

full reverse position.
