z
Switch “ON” the transmitter and check the throttle channel settings are +/-100% (for computer radios). For
Radios program the “Servo Reverse” function on the throttle channel. Set the throttle to “closed” or brake
position
z
Connect with battery. For speed controllers without BEC, switch on the power to receiver.
z
You should hear a ‘
beep
’.
Between connect with battery and the ‘beep’ the throttle stick must not be
moved.
If you do not hear a ‘beep’, disconnect the power connectors, wait for 5 seconds and repeat the
procedure of connecting.
z
If you do not hear ‘
beep
’ again, check the following:
1).Is 3 Pin connector plugged in throttle channel?
2).Is the throttle stick in “closed” position (OFF)?
3).Is the throttle channel in ‘normal’ position?
z
The position of ‘full throttle’ will be adjusted automatically.
z
Warning: Once the Motor Battery Pack is connected, handle the model with extreme care!
Ensure that
everyone is well clear of the propeller at all times. Rotating propellers are extremely dangerous!
z
Always Connect the motor battery pack just before flight and disconnect it immediately after landing the model.
z
Warning: Even when the switch on the transmitter is ‘off’ remember the Motor Battery pack may be connected,
handle the model with extreme care and stay well clear of the Propeller!
Setting the Propeller Brake On or Off:
z
The speed controller is supplied with the ‘brake’ activated. If you want to turn off the brake, do the following:
1).Switch on the transmitter and move the stick to full throttle
2).Connect the main power pack
3).Wait 5 seconds
4).After 5seconds you will hear 5 single “beeps”
5).Swiftly move the throttle stick to the closed position; you will hear two “beeps”.
6).The brake is now turned off
z
The brake setting will not change after disconnecting the main power pack. When turning on the speed
controller with the brake active, you will always hear one ‘beep’. When the brake is turned off you will hear two
‘beeps’. If you want to activate the brake again, repeat the procedure.
Setting the Timing Mode:
z
It is possible to set two timing modes with these speed controllers
1).Soft timing-for 2,4,6, pole motors. Soft timing gives maximum efficiency
2).Hard timing only for 6 and more pole motors
z
Hard timing in creases both the motor revolutions and the current (up to 20%) with the same prop and battery
pack when compared to soft timing. This is more suitable for faster flying models.
z
Always use soft timing for first flights. If the temperature of the batteries, speed controller and motor are below
50
℃
degrees following the first flights it is possible to test the system using the hard timing mode. Do not use
hard timing with 2 pole motors.
z
The Speed controllers are supplied with soft timing-to change the timing:
1).Switch on the transmitter and move the stick to full throttle
2).Connect the main power pack and wait 5 seconds.
3).After 5 seconds you will hear 4 “beeps”
4).After further 5 seconds you will hear 5 “beeps” for soft timing
