Sensored motor wiring
When using sensored brushless motor, please connect the “SENSOR” port of the ESC and the the “SENSOR”
port of the motor with a sensor wire.
For sensored brushless motor, the #A, #B, #C wires of the ESC MUST be connected with the motor wire #A, #B,
#C respectively. Do not change the wires sequence optionally! (#A is Blue, #B is Yellow, #C is Orange.)
Sensorless motor wiring
When using sensorless brushless motor, the #A, #B, #C wires of the ESC can be connected with the motor wires
freely (without any order). If the motor runs in the opposite direction, please swap any two wire connections.
Please disconnect the battery from the ESC after running the car!

In order to make sure the ESC fits the throttle range of your transmitter, you must calibrate it when begin to use a new ESC, or a used transmitter if some of its settings have been changed,
like the Throttle Trim, D/R, EPA or other parameters. Otherwise, the ESC cannot work properly. Besides, we strongly recommend users to enable the “failsafe” function of the transmitter, set
the “F/S” of the throttle channel to the Shutdown mode or set the protection value to the neutral position, so the car can be stopped if the receiver fails to get the radio signals from the
transmitter. Please calibrate the throttle range according to the following steps.

• In the ESC setting process, the motor will emit “Beep” tone at the same time
when the LED is flashing.
• If the “N” is bigger than the number “5”, we use a long time flash and long
“Beep—” tone to represent “5”, so it is easy to identify the items with the big
serial number.
For example, if the LED flashes as the following:
“A long time flash + 1 short time flash” (Motor sounds “B—B”) = the No. 6 item,
“A long time flash + 2 short time flash” (Motor sounds “B—BB”) = the No. 7 item,
“A long time flash + 3 short time flash” (Motor sounds “B—BBB”) = the No. 8 item,
and so on.
The Program Card is optional equipment which needs to be purchased separately. It has 3 digital
LEDs to display the programmable items’ number and the options’ number. It is portable and
very easy to use.
(For detailed information, please refer to the user manual of the program card).

ATTENTION
The reference gear ratios in the above form are based on the 1/10 RC cars with 2S Lipo and 0
timing ESC. If the ESC timing is increased, then the gear ratio needs to be increased
accordingly. Besides, please pay attention to the temperature of the ESC and the motor to
avoid any damage to the equipments.
Note: “T” indicates the limit value of motor turns when the ESC timing is set to 0 degree. The larger the timing, the more turns the motor needs. Please pay close attention to temperatures of the motor and the ESC to avoid any
damage to these two equipments.

Trouble(s)
Solution(s)
Possible Causes
No battery voltage is input to the ESC. The switch of the ESC is damaged
The voltage of the battery pack is not in the normal range, it’s too high or too low.
The throttle signal wire is oppositely inserted or into the incorrect channel.
The wire connections between the ESC and the motor need to be changed.
The ESC is not suitable for the chassis.
Low voltage cutoff protection (Red LED blinks)
Thermal protection (Green LED blinks)
ESC detects abnormal signals from the sensor port of the motor and the ESC changes to
sensorless driving mode automatically.
Low battery discharge rate.
The motor RPM is too high (i.e. the motor runs too fast), and the gear ratio is too small.
The “Punch” setting is too high.
Check the connections between the battery and the ESC, re-solder the connectors if needed.
Change the switch.
Check the voltage of the battery pack.
Plug the signal wire (Rx lead) correctly into the throttle channel (usually Channel #2) of the receiver.
Swap any two wire connections between the ESC and the motor. (Note: This method is ONLY
available for SENSORLESS motor ) Please don't use the ESC for this special chassis.
Check the battery voltage. If still has some capacity, lower the cut-off threshold voltage;
if not, replace a new battery.
Wait several minutes to cool the ESC. Increase the gear ratio or the T number (Turns) of the motor.
Check the sensor wire connection.
The Hall sensors in the motor are damaged, please change the motor.
Use a battery pack with better discharge ability.
Use a low-speed motor, or increase the gear ratio.
Set the acceleration (punch) to the softer mode.
After power on, motor doesn’t work but emits “beep-beep-, beep-beep-”
alert tone. (there’s 1-second pause between 2 “beep-beep-”).
After power on, the Red LED turns solid red but the motor doesn’t work.
Turn on the switch, no LED lights up, and neither the motor nor fan works.
The car runs backwards when accelerating forward on radio.
The motor stuttering under heavy acceleration.
The car slows down and then stopped. The Red and Green LEDs blink
rapidly and synchronously when throttle stick in neutral.
The connections between the motor and ESC are not A-A, B-B and C-C;
The ESC is damaged
Check wiring & connections.
Contact the distributor for sales-after service.
The motor stutters and can’t start up.

Release the SET
button once the LED
flashes.
1. Running Mode:
With “Forward with Brake” mode, the car can go forward and brake, but cannot go backward, this mode is suitable for competition; “Forward / Reverse with Brake” mode has reverse running function, which is suitable for daily training.
Note: “Forward/Reverse with Brake” mode uses “Double-click” method to make the car go backward. When you move the throttle stick from forward zone to backward zone for the first time (The 1st “click”), the ESC begins to brake the motor,
the motor slows down but it is still running, not completely stopped, so the backward action is NOT happened immediately. When the throttle stick is moved to the backward zone again (The 2nd “click”), if the motor speed is slowed down to zero
(i.e. stopped), the backward action will happen. The “Double-Click” method can prevent mistakenly reversing action when the brake function is frequently used in steering. By the way, in the process of braking or reversing, if the throttle stick is moved
to forward zone, the motor will run forward at once. “Forward/Reverse” mode uses “single-click” method to make the car reverse. When moving the throttle stick from neutral zone to backward zone, the vehicle reverses immediately, so this mode is
usually used by rock crawler.
2. Drag Brake Force:
Set the amount of drag brake applied at neutral throttle to simulate the slight braking effect of a brushed motor while coasting.
3. Low Voltage Cut-Off:
The function mainly prevents the Lipo battery from over discharging. The ESC detects the battery voltage at any time, if the voltage is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds, the output power will be reduced 70%, after 10
seconds the output power will be completely shut off and the red LED flashes in such a way: “
☆
-,
☆
-,
☆
-”. Please stop your car at the track side as soon as possible to avoid obstructing other racing cars.
Note: For NiMH battery, if the voltage of the whole NiMH battery pack is higher than 9.0V, it will be considered as a 3 cells Lipo battery pack; If it is lower than 9.0V, it will be considered as a 2 cells Lipo battery pack. For example, if a NiMH battery
pack is 8.0V, and the threshold is set to 2.6V/Cell, so it will be considered as a 2 cells Lipo battery pack, and the low-voltage cut-off threshold for this NiMH battery pack is 2.6x2=5.2V.
4. Start Mode (Also called “Punch” or “Acceleration”):
Level 1 has very soft start acceleration, while level 9 has very quick start acceleration. From Level 1 to Level 9, the start force is increasing. If you choose “Level 7” to “Level 9”, you should use
good quality battery with powerful discharge ability, otherwise you cannot get the burst start effect as you want. If the motor cannot run smoothly (the motor is cogging), sometimes it is caused by the weak discharge ability, please use a better battery
or increase the gear ratio.
5. Maximum Brake Force:
The ESC provides proportional brake function. The brake force is related to the position of the throttle stick. Maximum brake force refers to the force when the throttle stick is located at the end point of the backward zone.
A very large brake force can shorten the brake time, but it may damage the gears.
6. Maximum Reverse Force:
Sets how much power will be applied in the reverse direction.
7. Initial Brake Force:
It is also called “minimum brake force”, which refers to the force when the throttle stick is located at the initial position of the backward zone. The default value is equal to the drag brake force, so the brake action can be very
smoothly.
8. Throttle Neutral Range:
This setting adjusts the width of the neutral range.
9. Timing:
This function can be used to fine-tune the output power of the motor, the bigger the timing, the faster the motor runs or the larger output power of the motor. As the Boost Timing technology has been introduced into this ESC, so under the
sensored mode, adjust the ESC timing can greatly increase the motor speed. Therefore, please remember to enlarge the gear ratio of the chassis and carefully check temperatures of the motor and the ESC after increasing the timing.
