VTX series instructions
5: Features
The diagram above shows the VTX-75 which has
four MOSFETs and capacitors. The VTX-40 has two
only. Otherwise, the VTX-40 is largely the same as
the VTX-75.
Speed pot and reversing switch input is via a 6 pin
connector, supplied.
Power & Motor connections are by 6.3mm blade
connectors on top of the board. Spare power
connections are provided and can be used for control
wires or for extra motor wires as you wish.
Also available is an expansion connector option, see
page 12.
Regen brake defeat option, RAT and MST presets are
not normally fitted but are replaced by fixed resistors.
Parking brake and Thermal Sensor are standard on
VTX-75 but optional on VTX-40.
A version of the controller is supplied with fixed
acceleration, deceleration and gain: in this the presets
are replaced by fixed resistors.
