ESC LED STATUS

•  No ESC LEDs will glow when there is no throttle input from the transmitter.
•  The red ESC LED glows when there is any throttle input from the transmitter.

AUDIBLE WARNING TONES

1.  Input Voltage:

 The ESC checks the in put voltage when it is powered ON. If a voltage 

problem is detected, the ESC continuously sounds 2 beeps with a 1 second pause  
(xx-xx-xx). Power OFF the ESC and ensure the connections are secure and that  
the battery power is not too low for safe operation. 

2.  Radio Connection:

 The ESC checks radio signal input when it is powered ON.  

If a problem is detected, the ESC continuously sounds 1 beep with a 2 second pause  
(x--x--x). Power OFF the ESC and ensure the radio system is operating correctly.

For sensorless brushless motors:

1. 

Connect the ESC terminal A (typically designated by a blue wire) to the motor’s terminal 
A (red wire on a Dynamite

®

 Fuze™ sensorless motor). This may also be changed in 

Programming Item 12, Motor Rotation, without changing wire connections.

2. 

Connect the ESC terminal B (typically designated by a yellow wire) to the motor’s terminal 
B (blue wire on a Dynamite

®

 Fuze™ sensorless motor).

3. 

Connect the ESC terminal C (typically designated by an orange wire) to the motor’s 
terminal C (black wire on a Dynamite

®

 Fuze™ sensorless motor).

NOTICE: 

Always disconnect the battery from the ESC when you have finished operating 

your vehicle. The ESC’s switch only controls power to the receiver and servos. The ESC 
will continue to draw current when connected to the battery, resulting in possible dam-
age to the battery through over discharge.

ESC CALIBRATION PROCEDURE

Ensure proper ESC function by calibrating the ESC to your transmitter inputs.

1. 

Power OFF the ESC. 

2. 

Ensure your transmitter is powered ON, the throttle is not reversed, the throttle trim is 
neutral and the throttle travel range is at 100%. Disable any special functions such as 
ABS, etc.

3. 

Press the SET button while powering ON the ESC. Release the button as soon as the red 
LED starts to flash. 

4. 

Calibrate the throttle points by pressing the SET button once after each step. 

 - Neutral (1 flash)—leave the throttle at rest, untouched
 - Full throttle (2 flashes)—pull the throttle fully back
 - Full brake/reverse (3 flashes)—push the throttle fully forward

5. 

The motor will run 3 seconds after the last step is completed.

Tip:

 If the motor turns in the wrong direction, reverse the connection of any 2 outside 

motor wires. The center wire must remain in the center and cannot be moved to another 
motor tab.

ESC FUNCTIONS AND MODES

The ESC includes programming options so you can adjust the way your vehicle performs.  
Refer to the included settings table to adjust the ESC for your driving conditions.

ESC PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE

Programming is accomplished using the SET button on the ON/OFF switch or Digital Program 
Box (DYN3748).

1. 

Connect a fully charged battery to the ESC.

2. 

Power ON the ESC using the ESC switch.

3. 

Hold the SET button for 1 second until the green LED blinks, then release the SET button  
to enter programming mode.

4. 

Press and release the SET button as needed to get to the desired menu option (the Green 
LED will blink corresponding to the menu item number). Programming menu items 1 
through 9 are accessible using the SET button on the ESC. Programming menu items 10 and 
above are only accessible using the optional ESC programming card. Programming of menu 
items 10 and 11 is only possible after firmware updates to the ESC programming card.

5. 

When at the desired menu item, hold the SET button for 3 seconds until the red LED blinks. 

6. 

Press the SET button to move among the settings based on how many times the red LED 
blinks (Refer to the table for more information).

7. 

Save the setting by holding the SET button for 3 seconds.

8. 

Power OFF the ESC switch and repeat the instructions above to change other settings. 

Tip:

 If desired, the ESC programming can be returned to default settings  

by powering ON the ESC and holding the SET button for 5 seconds.
