Dear customer, we
are pleased that you have chosen a RO-Control Navy speed controller for
brushless
motors
from
our
range.
This
gives
you
a
particularly
powerful
c
ontroller
for controlling
your
rc-boats
engine.
Despite the relatively simple operation of these controllers, their use requires some knowledge
from you. These instructions will help you to familiarize yourself quickly with the possibilities of the
speed controller. To achieve this goal safely and quickly, you should read these operating
instructions carefully before commissioning the controller. The safety and warning notices are of
particular importance.
Brushless
motors
can
be
very dangerous.
Any improper use can
cause personal injury and destroy the controller and the devices
connected to it. We
strongly recommend that you read these
operating instructions completely before use.
Since we have no control over the use, installation or maintenance of the controller, we accept no
liability for this product for any damage or loss resulting from the use of the product.
We also accept no responsibility for damage or loss caused by unauthorized changes to our
product.
Remote-controlled models are not toys and may only be used by young people under 14 years of
age under the constant supervision of adults who are familiar with the construction, operation,
material and possible dangers. Construction, commissioning and operation of remote-controlled
models are dangerous and are the full responsibility of the operator. We expressly point out these
risks and accept no liability. Careful, well-considered handling during operation protects against
personal injury and property damage. Perform maintenance and inspections of your models and
electronic devices at short, regular intervals. Check regularly that all fastenings are securely
fastened.
The controllers are only intended for use in battery- or battery-operated, remote-controlled
models. Any other operation is not permitted. Please note that despite many safety features, an
accidentally starting electric motor, e.g. due to a defect of the controller, has considerable risk
potential and can result in considerable injuries. We cannot check the handling of the controller
and reject any claim for damages due to failure, faulty operation or malfunction. We assume no
liability for personal injury, property damage and their consequences arising from our delivery or
work. Never operate a damaged regulator, e.g. due to exposure to water or mechanical
deformation, a crash or similar.

Make sure that you do not reverse the polarity of the battery, that you avoid short circuits, that the
drive motor is effectively suppressed and that the air can circulate freely. Use plug systems that
are protected against polarity reversal. All cables and connections should be well insulated. The
regulator must not come into contact with grease or oil. Only use the connectors, original parts and
accessories recommended by us. Always set the throttle to "Stop" before switching on the
transmitter.
In addition, it is imperative that you observe the following notes:
•
Make sure that all cables and connections are well insulated before connecting the controller to
other devices, as a short circuit can damage the controller.
•
Ensure that all equipment is properly connected, poor connections may cause you to lose
control of your model ship and cause other unforeseen problems, personal injury, property
damage or destruction of the controller.
•
Please use a soldering iron with a power of at least 60 W to solder all input and output lines.
•
Stop the controller if the heat sink temperature exceeds 90 °C. Otherwise the controller and / or
the motor will be damaged. We recommend activating the thermal protection (ESC Thermal
Protection) which automatically stops operation at a value of 105 °C inside the controller.
•
Never try to operate two brushless motors with only one controller, otherwise the controller will
fail.
•
Always keep the propeller away from your body and other objects, as they can be very
dangerous.
•
Protect the speed controller from vibrations, dust, moisture and mechanical stress!
•
Always connect the drive battery to the controller just before starting the model. After you have
landed/develed, disconnect immediately.
•
The controller is equipped with a tarnish protection. Nevertheless, for safety reasons, be very
careful and cautious when plugging the battery into the controller to prevent personal injury.
•
Even if the receiving system is switched off, but the battery is still connected to the controller,
there is a fundamental risk potential.
•
Make absolutely sure that the controller is always operated within the values of the technical
data. Overloading can lead to damage, resulting in great dangers.
•
Always follow the instructions for connecting and installing the controller.
•
High currents cause the cables to heat up, which can cause fire or burns to the skin. Lay the
cabling accordingly and proceed very carefully.
•
Be sure to follow the warnings of the manufacturer of the motor, battery and model you are
using.
•
The controller must never be connected to the 230V AC mains.
•
When operating a
rc-boat
, you must comply with all safety regulations, so as not to
endanger
themselves and others.
After use, please remove all batteries and dispose of them separately. Hand in old
electrically operated equipment free of charge at the municipalities' collection points for
electrical waste. The remaining parts belong in the household waste. Thank you for
your help!
