Maximum RPM:
40,000 RPM on a 14 Pole Motor
Hookup Instructions:
1. Solder an appropriate connector on the b (red) and
battery
– (black) leads. We recommend Deans Ultra or
Anderson Power Pole connectors. If using a polarized
connector, make sure the polarity matches your batteries,
and make sure your connector can handle 60 amps of
current.
2. Connect the three motor wires to your brushless motor
(ignore the wire colors). If the motor spins in the wrong
direction, swap any two of the motor wires to reverse the
direction. We recommend using gold plated spring
connectors (also known as bullet connectors) between the
motor and the speed control to facilitate swapping the wires.
Make sure to cover the bullet connectors with heat shrink
tubing.
3. Plug the servo connector into the appropriate channel on
your receiver. Most receivers use channel 3 for the throttle,
but some use channel 1. Consult the manual for your
receiver for details. The red wire on the servo connector is
positive (+), the brown or black wire is negative (-), and the
orange or white wire is the signal.
4. Make sure your transmitter throttle channel is not reversed.
Most Futaba transmitters have the throttle channel reversed
by default.
5. Before flight, you must program the battery type, number of
cells, and cut-off voltage. See the next page for
programming instructions.
6. Install your ESC in a location in your airplane that receives
good cooling airflow. Keep the motor and battery wires
away from your receiver and antenna.
Notes on the BEC:
This speed control does not have a built-in battery-eliminator circuit
(BEC). You must either use a 4.8V receiver pack, or use a separate
switching BEC to provide power to your receiver.
