• User adjustable low voltage and over temperature protection.
• FLOW-MAX™ design cool aluminum housing with 30mm high rpm cooling fan.
• Programmable by SHR program card & PC Interface.
• User upgradable firmware.
■ FEATURES ■
• Keep this product out of reach of children.
• This product is designed only for R/C car model use. It is not suitable for any other purpose.
• Never leave this product unattended while it is connected to a power source.
• Make sure all cables are in good condition and securely fastened.
• Keep in mind that vibration during operation may loosen connections and cause loss of control.
• Do not connect in reverse polarity.
• To prevent short-circuits, please make sure that all cables and connectors are properly insulated.
• Keep this product away from water, oil, fuel or other conductive liquids. If this product becomes damp,
immediately stop using it and let it dry completely.
• Avoid using excessive force when tightening the cooling fan screws. Over tightening them may permanently
damage the aluminum housing.
• Make sure to use suitable gear ratios for your track condition. Unsuitable gear ratios may overload and
damage your speed controller and motor.
• Never operate with throttle when the motor has no load. Running the motor without load may cause
damage and risk of fire or bum.

Connection and Mounting
Connect the Rx connector to the throttle channel (CH2) of your radio receiver.
(White Shrink tube is Signal wire)
Connect one end of the sensor cable to the motor’s sensor port, and the other end to the ESC’s
sensor port.
Secure the ESC, power switch, and capacitor on your model car’s chassis with double sided tape.
If necessary, install the included cooling fan on top of the ESC with screws, and make sure to check
for correct polarity when connecting to the cooling fan power port.
Soldering Battery Wires, Motor Wires, and Capacitor
Make sure to use a soldering iron with sufficiently high temperature. Never leave the soldering iron on the mounting point for longer than 5 seconds.
If it takes than 5 seconds to melt the solder between the joints, switch to a higher temperature solder iron. Overheating the mounting points will damage the ESC.
Pay special attention to the polarity marking below the mounting point. Make sure you connect each
phase (A,B,C) of the motor to the corresponding (A,B,C) mounting point on the ESC.
We recommend using a red color wire for the po) battery input terminal, and a black color wire
for the negative(-) terminal. Connecting a battery in reverse polarity will damage the ESC !!
Remember to solder the included power capacitors to the battery input mounting point!
Running the motor without connecting capacitor will damage the ESC!

BASIC INSTALLATION
Always power ON your transmitter first before powering ON your ESC to avoid unexpected operation of the motor. For your safety, motor operation is automatically disabled until neutral throttle signal is detected
from the radio receiver.
Synchronizing the FLETA and Transmitter
In order for the ESC to recognize the full throttle range of your radio, a throttle range calibration is required.
Before starting, make sure your radio throttle 2CH EPA and D/R is set at 100%. The trim and sub-trim should be zero.
Warning: To prevent any chance of loss of control or damage and injuries, make sure to remove the pinion gear from the motor during the calibration process!
1) Turn on your radio, making sure the throttle is at neutral.
2) Turn on your ESC while pressing the set button.
Release the set button when green LED light up solid.
3) Press the set button once to set the neutral throttle position.
The green LED will blink to indicate position is memorized.
4) When the red LED light up solid, hold full throttle and press the set button once.
The LED will blink to indicate full throttle position is memorized.
Make sure to hold full throttle until the LED change to different color.
5) When the green and red LED light up solid, hold full brake and press the set button once.
The LED will blink to indicate full brake position is memorized, and return to green.
6) Finished the calibration.
