Motor cables
The sequence is arbitrary. The motor rotation will
be reversed by switching 2 of the 3 motor cables.
Motor sensor cables are not used.
Use polarized connectors for battery cables
only! Connecting the battery with reverse
polarity will destroy the ESC.

Quick Set-up
At delivery status the KOBY ESC is set at
APM
(Auto-Programming-Mode). It will adapt itself to the
throttle positions of the RC.
1. Switch on Tx - set throttle control to off
2. Switch on RX
3. Connect battery to KOBY ESC
4. Give 1s full throttle or start with full throttle
5. Ready
If the motor fails to start, disconnect battery and
switch Tx option “reversion of rotation” on or off.
In all other modes the throttle position will be
programmed and fixed and not learnt with
every start.

Programming
Overview of different mode settings
Programming procedure
1.
For an acustic programming confirmation
connect ESC to motor
2. Turn on the Tx and the Rx. Set the throttle to
EMF-brake position
3.
Connect battery
4.
Wait 2 sec. or
5.
Press Button
6.
7. Mode tone: the speed control switches to every
single mode. There is a break between single
signal sequences.
Mode 1: one tone, Mode 2: two tones
Set the throttle to full speed (front position) if
desired mode is reached.
8.
9.
Attention:
only for Mode 2: For programming a
seperate motor-off-position, set the throttle in
the desired position now. The ESC reconfirms
10. Control output: The speed control repeats the
programmed mode.
11.
Ready – disconnect battery
7.1 Auto-Programming-Mode APM (Mode 1)
In APM the ESC equalizes itself after every battery
connection to the actual throttle control. To identify
full gas position, please set the throttle to full gas
for at least 1 second. Brake position is the throttle
position at ESC connection.
Programming APM deletes all previous
settings (Reset).
7.2 Glider-Mode (Mode 2)
All required properties for electric powered glider
airplanes are preadjusted in this mode.
Mode-Standard Settings
Cell type::
LiPo
Speed characteristic:
Prop
Speed up:
slow, optimized for big propellers
Undervoltage disconnection: active
Brake:
active
To fly with under voltage disconnection and
without brake, change the trim after
programming such that the brake position is
not reached in flight.
