IMPORTANT:

 Never leave your RC model unsupervised when the 

battery is plugged in. If a defect occurs, it could set fi re to the 

model or the surroundings.

• Never wrap your speed-control in plastic fi lm or metal foil. In fact, 

make sure it gets enough fresh air.

• Avoid soldering longer then 5sec per soldering joint when repla-

cing the power wires to prevent possible damage to the speed-

control due to overheating of the components!

IMPORTANT: Pay close attention

 to the following points, as they 

will 

destroy

 the speed-control and

void your warranty:

• Never allow the speed-control or other electronic components to 

come in contact with water. Do not operate the speed-control 

in the rain. If you ever have to operate in the rain, protect your 

speed-control properly to avoid that water reaches the speedo.

• If the speed-control is connected to the motor, never run the motor 

directly with a separate battery or run-in device.

• Never  connect  the  speed-control  incorrectly  or  with  reversed 

polarity.

• All wires and connections have to be well insulated. Short-circuits 

will destroy the speed-control. Pay special attention to the recei-

ver- and switch wires.

• Never change the polarity of the receiver connector.

• Never open the speed control and never solder on the PCB (except 

on external solder-tabs).

WARNING NOTES

SPECIFICATIONS 

• Mount the speedo using the supplied thick/black doubled-sided tape. 

Do not use the clear Scotch 468MP tape!

• Position the speed-control where it is protected in the event of a crash.

• Install the speed-control so that you have easy access to the connector and buttons.

• Make sure there is enough clearance (about 3cm) between the speed-control, power-wires, antenna and receiver.

Avoid any direct contact between power components, the receiver or the antenna. This can cause interference. If 

interference occurs, position the components at a difference place in the model.

• The aerial should be run vertically up and away from the receiver. Avoid contact with any parts made of carbon fi bre 

or metal. If the aerial is too long, don’t coil up the excess length. It is better to cut it down to a length of about 35 

cm. See also the instructions supplied with your radio control system.

• Make sure there are enough cooling slits in the body. This will increase the performance and life of all the electronic 

components.

INSTALLATION TIPS

CONNECTIONS

RECEIVER CONNECTING WIRE:

This LRP speed-control is equipped with an LRP Multicon

wire. As supplied, it will easily fi t in all ordinary receivers.

HALL SENSOR WIRE:

This bi-directional multipole wire (which comes with the motor and NOT the speed-control!) connects the speed-cont-

rol and the motor. Do not alter or modify this cable! There are replaceable/optional

rol and the motor. Do not alter or modify this cable! There are replaceable

 hall sensor wires available:

• #81910 (20cm)

• #81920 (10cm)

POWER WIRES:

For maximum performance, 13AWG power wires without any connectors are used.The unique splitted solder-tabs 

allow easy and convenient replacement of the power wires. Nevertheless some soldering skills are required. Avoid 

soldering longer then 5sec per soldering joint to prevent possible damage to the speed-control due to overheating of 

the components! There is a full 13awg replacement power wire set available: #82505

achieve  best  performance  even  under  extreme  circumstances.  Clean 

the heatsink and stickerplate before you attach the clear/thin Scotch 

468MP thermal tape to guarantee perfect heat dissipation.

Caution: 

Use ONLY the supplied clear/thin Scotch 468MP thermal tape 

to attach the heatsink! Do not us standard double sided tape!

Because of the physical principles of brushless technology, the speed-

controls do get a little hotter then brushed systems. Therefore it is re-

quired to let the speed-control cool down completely after every run.

When running in extreme conditions (high ambient temperature, low-
