ESC LED STATUS
• No ESC LEDs will glow when there is no throttle input from the transmitter.
• The red ESC LED glows when there is any throttle input from the transmitter.
AUDIBLE WARNING TONES
1. Input Voltage:
The ESC checks the in put voltage when it is powered ON. If a voltage
problem is detected, the ESC continuously sounds 2 beeps with a 1 second pause
(xx-xx-xx). Power OFF the ESC and ensure the connections are secure and that
the battery power is not too low for safe operation.
2. Radio Connection:
The ESC checks radio signal input when it is powered ON.
If a problem is detected, the ESC continuously sounds 1 beep with a 2 second pause
(x--x--x). Power OFF the ESC and ensure the radio system is operating correctly.
DYNAMITE
®
FUZE™ 130A SENSORLESS BRUSHLESS ESC
For sensorless brushless motors:
1. Connect the ESC terminal A (typically designated by a blue wire) to the motor’s terminal
A (red wire on a Dynamite
®
Fuze™ sensorless motor). This may also be changed in
Programming Item 12, Motor Rotation, without changing wire connections.
2. Connect the ESC terminal B (typically designated by a yellow wire) to the motor’s terminal
B (blue wire on a Dynamite
®
Fuze™ sensorless motor).
3. Connect the ESC terminal C (typically designated by an orange wire) to the motor’s
terminal C (black wire on a Dynamite
®
Fuze™ sensorless motor).
NOTICE:
Always disconnect the battery from the ESC when you have finished operating
your vehicle. The ESC’s switch only controls power to the receiver and servos. The ESC will
continue to draw current when connected to the battery, resulting in possible damage to
the battery through over discharge.
ESC CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Ensure proper ESC function by calibrating the ESC to your transmitter inputs.
1. Power OFF the ESC.
2. Ensure your transmitter is powered ON, the throttle is not reversed, the throttle trim is
neutral and the throttle travel range is at 100%. Disable any special functions such as
ABS, etc.
3. Press the SET button while powering ON the ESC. Release the button as soon as the red
LED starts to flash.
4. Calibrate the throttle points by pressing the SET button once after each step.
- Neutral (1 flash)—leave the throttle at rest, untouched
- Full throttle (2 flashes)—pull the throttle fully back
- Full brake/reverse (3 flashes)—push the throttle fully forward
5. The motor will run 3 seconds after the last step is completed.
Tip:
If the motor turns in the wrong direction, reverse the connection of any 2 outside
motor wires. The center wire must remain in the center and cannot be moved to another
motor tab.
