Begin To Use The New ESC
1. Connect the ESC, motor, receiver, battery and servo
according to the following diagram
“+” and “-” wires on the ESC are connected with the battery pack,
and #A, #B and #C are connected with the motor wires. The
“SET” button is used for programming the ESC.
The control cable of the ESC (trio wires with black, red and white
color) is connected with the throttle channel of the receiver
(Usually CH2).
The #A, #B, #C wires of the ESC can be connected with the
motor wires freely (without any order). If the motor runs in the
opposite direction, please swap any two wire connections.
Note: You can use the transmitter to set the throttle channel
to the “Reverse” direction, and then the motor will run
reversely. Please calibrate the throttle range again after
changing the direction of throttle channel.
2. Throttle Range Setting (Throttle Range Calibration)
In order to make the ESC fit the throttle range, you must calibrate it for the following cases; otherwise the ESC cannot
work properly.
1) Begin to use a new ESC;
2) Begin to use a new transmitter;
3) Change the settings of neutral position of the throttle stick, ATV or EPA parameters, etc.
There are 3 points need to be set, they are the top point of “forward”,” backward” and the neutral point.
