2. Safety instructions
Risk of injury! Risk of damage! Proceed
with care!
The POWERJAZZ may be operated only, if
there is no risk to objects or persons!
As soon as the drive battery and the
motor are connected to the POWERJAZZ,
extreme caution must be taken! The
motor could start up without warning!
(e.g. due to faulty operating or electrical
defect).
Ejected propeller parts and even an
electric motor can cause serious injuries!
A damaged POWERJAZZ can function
faultily or malfunction and may therefore
not be used anymore!
The battery and motor cables of the
POWERJAZZ should not be extended!
Confirming to legal regulations is other-
wise not given anymore.
The POWERJAZZ may be powered only
by NiCd, NiMH, LiPo or lead batteries!
Running on main adapters is permitted!
The POWERJAZZ may not be connected
to the 110V or 230V AC network!
The POWERJAZZ may be operated only in
an environment, where there is no
discharging of static electricity!
Current readings may be done only whit a
clip-on ammeter!
Looped-in measuring
devices may damage the POWERJAZZ.
The POWERJAZZ always needs to be
sufficiently cooled!
This is especially
important, when using batteries with higher
capacity.
The
POWERJAZZ
may
not
be
disconnected from the battery as long as
the motor is still rotating.

Features of the POWERJAZZ ESC
The POWERJAZZ is designed for brushless mo-
tors. It works without sensors in the motor and
has very sensitive control characteristics and a
smooth start up! The POWERJAZZ has an auto-
matic adjustment of motor timing - no manual
adjustment is needed.
Several functions as start up protection at power
up, over temperature protection or over current
limitation are implemented. Auto adjustment of
the under voltage cut off according to the cell
count is standard.
The POWERJAZZ has unlimited part load capa-
bility due to the active free wheeling circuit.
The POWERJAZZ has an optocuppler for
interference suppression and no BEC, so an
additional receiver battery is necessary.
An acoustic start up signal, with shows whether
NiCd / NiMH or LiPo Mode is active. An audible
signal monitors the adjusting.
