• Follow the instructions included with the ESC to set the programming for the brake and voltage cutoff
to the following:
Voltage Cutoff – Auto Li-Po ON
Note: With the voltage cutoff programming set to Auto Li-Po ON, a soft cutoff of motor power
(usually noticeable as a quick “pulsing” of motor power under load) will occur when the voltage of
the 3-cell Li-Po battery pack reaches 9V under load. This is generally preferred in most cases,
however, you can disable the Auto Li-Po soft cutoff entirely by setting the voltage cutoff programming
to Auto Ni-Cd/Ni-MH ON. In this mode, soft cutoff of motor power will not occur until approximately
5.0V under load, even when using a 3-cell Li-Po battery pack for power. However, this means you
must exercise extreme care to prevent over-discharging the Li-Po battery pack during flight.
Brake – OFF
Note: It is extremely important that the motor brake programming of the ESC is disabled in order to
prevent damage to the main gear and other components.
Once you have confirmed that the ESC’s programming for the voltage cutoff and braking is correct,
disconnect the battery from the power leads. You will now need to also confirm that the motor is
operating in the correct direction.
• Turn on the transmitter and lower the throttle stick and trim completely. Then, plug the battery into the
battery lead Y-harness connected to the 3-in-1 control unit and brushless ESC. You should then almost
immediately hear beeps from the brushless ESC to indicate that it is armed and ready for use.
Note: The brushless ESC will almost always arm before the 3-in-1 control unit. This is extremely
important to remember because the main motor will then run if the throttle stick is advanced, even
if the 3-in-1 has yet to arm. Be certain to exercise extreme caution when waiting for the 3-in-1
control unit to arm, especially if the brushless ESC has already been armed.
• Once the brushless ESC has armed properly, you have placed the helicopter in a safe place free
of obstructions, and are clear of the flybar paddles, you can safely power up the model to check
operating direction of the motor.
• Advance the throttle stick slowly, just until the flybar paddles begin to spin, and note the direction. The
flybar paddles should spin clockwise when viewed from the top. If they are operating in the wrong
direction, unplug the battery, then simply reverse the order of any two of the brushless motor leads
where they connect to the ESC. Then, repeat the test to confirm that the flybar paddles (and motor) are
operating in the correct direction before proceeding.
After confirming that the brushless main motor is operating in the correct direction, and that you have
disconnected the battery, reconnect the tail motor wires to the 3-in-1 control unit. Take care to keep
the proper polarity and location of the wires as they were before the check, noting that tail motor plug
should be installed into the upper output slot of the 3-in-1 control unit with the positive lead to the top.
Then, re-attach the main rotor blades to the blade grips using the mounting bolts/nuts.
Your Blade CP+ is now ready to fly with the optional brushless main motor power system. Be sure to
take extra care when making the first test flights with the new power system as it will offer a significant
improvement in performance over the stock brushed main motor power system. Also, be sure to take
your time to re-adjust the Tail Rotor Proportional Mix and Gyro Gain Trimmer Pots (or the gain setting
value if using a heading lock type gyro), to find the best possible performance with the brushless
power system.
