2. Connect the three motor wires from the ESC to the motor wires 

in any order. 

In the event the motor spins the wrong direction, reverse any two 

wires. 

3. Connect the throttle servo lead to the throttle port on your receiver.
4. Secure all wiring so it is protected from damage or being caught 

by moving parts. 

NOTICE:

 Do not connect a dedicated receiver battery to the 

receiver along with the ESC. When the ESC is turned On it will 

provide the receiver with 6V regulated power from the main 

battery through the throttle connection. The ESC may be damaged 

if the receiver is also connected to a dedicated receiver battery.

ESC and Transmitter Calibration

1.  Begin with the transmitter and receiver binding complete.
2.  Set your transmitter’s throttle channel to 100% travel and 

trim to neutral. 

3.  Turn on your transmitter and connect a battery to the ESC but 

don’t power it on. 

4.  Press and hold the Set button while turning on the ESC. 

When the red LED begins to flash, release the Set button. 

The ESC will enter programming mode if the button is 

pressed for more than three seconds.

TIP:

 The red LED should be flashing when the ESC enters 

calibration mode. If the green LED is flashing the ESC is in 

programming mode.
