ESC Programming Procedure
Programming can be accomplished using the Dynamite
®
LED Program Card (DYNS3005, sold separately) or via the
transmitter. Please refer to your DYNM3875 manual for transmitter programming instructions.

Electronic Speed Control (ESC) Programming
STEP 1: Enter Program Mode
1.
Power on the transmitter and set the throttle to full.
2.
Connect the battery pack to the ESC. After 2
seconds, the ESC will beep twice.
3.
Wait 5 seconds and the ESC will emit a musical tone.
STEP 2: Select Programmable Item
The ESC will emit four groups of beeps in a loop.
Move the throttle to neutral within 3 seconds of the tone
matching the item you want to select.

STEP 3: Set Item Value
After selecting a programmable item, you will hear
several tones in a loop.
1.
Move the throttle to full to select the value matching
the tone. The ESC will emit an alternating tone to
indicate selection.
2.
Keep the throttle in full to return to Step 2 and
continue item selection. Move the throttle to the
neutral within 2 seconds to exit the Program Mode.
STEP 4: Exit Program Mode
1.
In Step 3, after hearing the alternating tone, move the
throttle to neutral within 2 seconds.

2.
Disconnect the battery pack from the ESC.
Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)
Discharging a Li-Po battery below 3V per cell may damage
your battery.The included ESC protects the boat battery
from over-discharge using Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Before
the battery charge decreases too much, LVC removes
power supplied to the motor. Power to the motor pulses,
showing that some battery power is reserved for boat
control and safe landing.
Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the boat after
use to prevent trickle discharge. Charge your Li-Po battery
to about half capacity before storage. During storage, make
sure the battery charge does not fall below 3V per cell. LVC
does not prevent the battery from over-discharge during
storage.
NOTICE:
Repeated operation to LVC will damage the
battery.
Tip:
Monitor your boat battery’s voltage before and after
boating by using a Li-Po Cell Voltage Checker (EFLA111,
sold separately).
