• Water-proof and dust-proof, suitable for all-weather conditions.

• Small size with built-in capacitor module.

• Three running modes: Fwd/Br, Fwd/Rev/Br and Fwd/Rev, fits for various

  vehicles. Note 1: Fwd =Forward, Br=Brake, Rev=Reverse.

• Great current endurance capability.

• Great built-in BEC output capacity.

• Automatic throttle range calibration, easy to use. 

• ESC parameters can be easily changed by changing the jumper pins.

• Multiple protections: Low voltage cut-off protection for battery / Over-heat

  protection / Throttle signal loss protection.       

1. Outcry III ESC uses jumper caps to set running mode & battery type.

We suggest users using tweezers or needle-nose pliers to set parameters by plugging / unplugging the jumper cap (as shown

in the picture above); 

For example, if you want set the battery type to the “LiPo” mode, you only need to plug the jumper cap into left two pins of the

battery pin header. 

1. Running Mode: 3 Options (Fwd / Br / Rev, Fwd / Br, Fwd / Rev). The “Fwd / Br / Rev” is the default option. Fwd=Forward,

Br=Brake, Rev=Reverse 

“Fwd / Br / Rev” mode indicates the vehicle can go forward, backward and brake. This mode uses “Double-click” method to

make the vehicle reverse. When moving the throttle Trigger/Stick  from the neutral Reverse Position for the 1st time, the ESC

begins to brake the motor and the motor slows down but is still running, so the reverse is NOT performed immediately. When

the throttle Trigger/Stick  is moved to the Reverse Position again, if the motor speed slows down to zero (i.e. stopped), the

vehicle will move in reverse. This “Double-click” method prevents reversing immediately when the brake function is frequently

used in steering. Therefore, this mode is often used in daily practice.

“Fwd / Br” mode, the vehicle can go forward and brake, but no reversing, so this mode is often used in competitions. 

“Fwd / Rev” mode uses “Single-click” method to make the vehicle reverse. When moving the throttle Trigger/Stick  from neutral 

zone to backward zone, the vehicle reverses immediately, so this mode is usually used for rock crawlers. 

2. Battery Type: 2 Options (Lipo, NiMH), the “Lipo” is the default option.       

1. Low Voltage Cutoff Protection (LVC): If the voltage of battery pack is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds, the ESC will 

enter protection mode, so the motor speed will be lowered (when voltage is lower than the 1st trigger point) till stopped (when

voltage is lower than the 2nd trigger point). When the car stops, the red LED blinks to indicate the low voltage cut-off 

protection has been activated.

         • 2S Lipo: When the voltage is below 6.5V, the output power will be halved. When the voltage is lower than 6.0V, the

RXWSXWZLOOEHFXWRIIDQGZRQ·WEHUHVXPHGDJDLQ

         • 3s Lipo: When the voltage is below 9.75V, the output power will be halved. When the voltage is lower than 9.0V, the

RXWSXWZLOOEHFXWRIIDQGZRQ·WEHUHVXPHGDJDLQ

         • 5-9S Lipo: When the voltage is below 4.5V, the output power will be halved. When the voltage is lower than 4.0V, the

RXWSXWZLOOEHFXWRIIDQGZRQ·WEHUHVXPHGDJDLQ

2. Over-heat Protection: When the internal temperature of the ESC is higher than 100 degrees Celsius, or 211 degrees 

Fahrenheit, this protection will be activated and the output power will be reduced until cut off. The RED LED blinks when the 

Fahrenheit, this protection will be activated and the output power will be reduced until cut off. The RED LED blinks when the

Fahrenheit.  

3. Throttle signal loss protection: The ESC will cut off the output power if the throttle signal has been lost for 0.1 second. The

“Fail-Safe” function of the radio system is strongly recommended to be activated.  

1.Prior to proceeding, be sure to either remove the pinion from the motor or elevate the truck so the wheels are not able to

touch the ground. 

2.Do not touch this product while in use to avoid injury. Product emits heat and thus, the heatsink may become extremely hot.

3.This product is waterproof. Product will be functional in up to 10cm of water for 2 hours.
