PREPARATIONS BEFORE DRIVING

Checking standby mode

At the time of shipment, the standby 

mode is as shown in the figure on the 

right. Each LED has the following 

meaning.

[Important] Safety feature for driving in reverse

On radio controlled cars, the same throttle controls are used for braking and 

driving in reverse. This can cause car to move backward when the intention is to 

apply the brakes. Suddenly trying to reverse the motor while it is rotating forward 

can place severe stree to the gears, motor, and ESC, sometimes resulting in 

internal damage. The XARVIS XX is equipped with the following feature to 

prevent this.

After applying the brakes, before reversing, the ESC will wait 1 second or more 

for the throttle to return to neutral and for the the motor to go from rotating in a 

forward direction to coming to a complete stop (it will not go into reverse within 

the span of 1 second).

This feature prevents unintentional reversing even if the reverse drive feature is 

set ON on the ESC. It prevents damage to the drivetrain of the car and potential 

collision with other vehicles, as well as many other possible problems, and is 

essential to allow short braking action when turning corners.

Stanby mode at time of shipment

This completes the preparation before driving. Connect the motor and enjoy 

driving.

When using lithium polymer batteries, set the cutoff voltage before driving to 3.2V/cell (1 

recommended)(P.16)

Verifying the transmitter positions have been correctly set to their initial settings

The standby LED (see below) should be the only one 

illuminated 

when the throttle is in 

the neutral, maximum forward, and maximum reverse (brake) positions. If the Stanby 

LED is 

unlit 

in all other positions, the initial setup has been completed properly. 

(The standy LED is the only LED that alternately illuminates and goes out when 

adjusting the throttle)

If the standby LED does not follow this lighting pattern, the initial setting was not 

completed properly. Make sure the throttle related adjustment on the transmitter 

are initialized and the RX cable is properly connected to the receiver. Then, retry 

the initial setting procedure. 

Depending on the configuration of the vehicle, 

the car may move in reverse

 when the throttle 

is operated in the forward direction. If your car displays this behavior, 

change the rotation 

direction of the motor

 (P.16).

Note, this safety feature cannot be disabled. However, as detailed in [Reverse 

drive ON/OFF and motor rotating selection](P.16), when configuring to 

crawleroriented settings, vehicle movement that occurs once the throttle is 

placed in the brake position will be specialized for reverse driving (the brake 

will not work), thus disabling this function.

LED<green> : 

Factory shipped condition = unlit

If the 

battery voltage becomes lower than the cutoff voltage

 (P.16) while 

driving, the green LED will blink and the car will drive at extremely low 

speeds. If this occurs, 

replace the battery

.

LED<blue> : 

Factory shipped condition = lit

Standby LED when setting mode (P.10) is in ESC  mode. Unlit during Link 

mode.

Under "ESC Mode", <blue> LED will be blinking if the program selected 

(P.12) is "Boost/Turbo Disabled", or both "Full Boost Timing"(P.17) and "Full 

Turbo Timing" (P.19) are disabled.

LED<red> : 

Factory shipped condition = unlit

Standby LED when setting mode is in Link mode. Unlit during ESC mode.

Under "Link Mode", <red> LED will be blinking if the program selected (P.12) 

is "Boost/Turbo Disabled", or both "Full Boost Timing"(P.17) and "Full Turbo 

Timing" (P.19) are disabled.

LED<orange> : 

Factory shipped condition = lit

Illuminated when the reverse drive feature (P.16) is set to ON.

 Unlit when set to 

OFF.

If the ESC heats up to temperature limits while driving, the motor will remain 

at low speed and the Orange LED will blink. 

If this situation occurs, 

discontinue operation until the ESC temperature drops back to ambient 

temperature.

 If the Orange LED starts blinking after driving for only a brief 

period of time, 

check to see if the gear ratio settings are overloading the 

motor.
