Smart Technology Electronic Speed Control (ESC)
The AeroScout S 2 1.1m is equipped with an exclusive Smart technology
electronic speed control that can provide a variety of real-time power system
related telemetry data while you fly, including motor RPM, current, battery
voltage and more to compatible Spektrum AirWare
™
equipped transmitters.
When powered on, the ESC will send the below information to the flight control
and the information will be displayed on the transmitter telemetry screen.
• RPM*
• Voltage
• Current
• Throttle
• FET Temperature
• BEC Temperature
* For the RPM telemetry information to display correctly, you must program the
motor pole count into the Telemetry settings of your transmitter.
The AeroScout S 2 1.1m uses a 14-pole motor.
To program the motor pole count information:
1. Power on your transmitter.
2. Set the throttle cut to on.
3. Power on the aircraft and allow it to initialize.
4. In your transmitter, go to the

WARNING:
Do not perform this or any other equipment maintenance
with the propeller installed on the aircraft. Serious injury or property
damage could result from the motor starting inadvertently.
NOTICE:
Crash damage is not covered under warranty.
NOTICE:
After any impact or replacement always ensure the receiver is
secure in the fuselage. If you replace the receiver, install the new receiver in
the same location and orientation as the original or damage may result.
Repairs to the foam can be made using virtually any adhesive
(hot glue, regular CA [cyanoacrylate adhesive], epoxy, etc).
Use of CA accelerator on the aircraft can damage paint. DO NOT handle the
aircraft until accelerator fully dries.
When damaged parts are not repairable, see the Replacement Parts list for
ordering by item number.

WARNING:
Always disconnect the flight battery from the model
before removing the propeller.
Disassembly
1. Remove the wing from the aircraft.
2. Use a long 2.5mm hex driver inside the motor pod to remove the four
screws
(A)
from the motor mount.
3. Disconnect the 3 motor wires from the ESC, and pull the motor
(B)
from the
mount.
Assemble in reverse order.
If, after assembly, the motor spins in the wrong direction, switch the
connections of any two of the three motor wires.
Assembly Tips
• If, after assembly, the motor spins in the wrong direction, switch the con-
nections of any two of the ESC/motor wires.
• The raised lettering on the propeller must face forward for correct propeller
operation.
