                         Thank you for purchasing ZTW Gecko Series Brushless 
                         Electronic Speed Controllers (ESC).

High  power  systems  for  RC  model  can  be  very  dangerous  and  we  strongly  suggest 
that  you  read  this  manual  carefully.  ZTW  Model  have  no  control  over  the  use, 
installation, application, or maintenance of these products, thus no liability shall be 
assumed nor accepted for any damages, losses of costs resulting from the use of this 
item. Any  claims  arising  from  the  operating,  failure  or  malfunctioning  etc.  will  be 
denied.  We  assume  no  liability  for  personal  injury,  property  damage  or 
consequential damages resulting from our product or our workmanship. As far as is 
legally permitted, the obligation for compensation is limited to the invoice amount 
of the product in question.

The  ZTW  ESC's  high  power  BEC  has  been  specifically  designed  for  extreme 
aerobatics  and  therefore  has  the  capability  to  support  the  higher  momentary  peak 
demand  loads  to  eliminate  the  possibility  of  unwanted  shutdowns,  and  is  also 
capable  of  supporting  continuous  simultaneous  multiple  servo  operations  typically 
found in CCPM equipped hardcore 3D E-helicopters.

Wires Connection:

The speed controller can be connected to the motor by soldering directly or with high 
quality connectors. Always use new connectors, which should be soldered carefully 
to the cables and insulated with heat shrink tube. The maximum length of the battery 
pack wires shall be within 6 inches.

       Solder controller to the motor wires.
       Solder appropriate connectors to the battery wires. 
       Insulate all solder connectors with heat shrink tubes.
       Plug the “JR” connector into the receiver throttle channel.
       Controller Red and Black wires connects to battery pack Red and Black wires 
       respectively.
