INSTRUCTION MANUAL 

Advanced Tab 

NovaLink offers a visual 

temperature data graph 
that records the motor 
and ESC temperatures. 

The temperatures are 
recorded 16 times over a 

span of 3 minutes and 
then rerecorded again 

every 3 minutes 
thereafter. The graph 

displays the last 3 minutes 
worth of temperature 
readings before your ESC was switched off. 

 

 

Boost Delay 

The Boost Delay is the duration of time after the transmitter’s trigger 
reaches the full throttle position, before the ESC’s Boost Mode is 
activated.

 

 

A value from 100 to 500ms can be entered in increments of 1 

millisecond.

 

 

The Boost Mode must be activated before a value can be entered.

 

 

Boost Mode 

The Boost Mode, when activated, applies the maximum possible 
electronic motor timing advancement at full throttle. This provides 

even higher top speeds. 
 

The Boost Mode can be activated at any Timing Level. 

 

Special attention to gearing must be paid when experimenting with 

timing changes. Start with a very small pinion size and check ESC 
and motor temperature multiple times throughout your initial runs. 

 

WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN ACTIVATING BOOST 

MODE AS THIS MAY RESULT IN EXCESSIVE HEATING OF THE ESC 
AND/OR MOTOR AND CAUSE EXTREMELY HIGH SPEEDS THAT 

CAN RESULT IN AN UNCONTROLLABLE VEHICLE. CHECK 
TEMPERATURES OFTEN. 

 

RPM Select 

Timing Set Point 

Timing Set Point is the RPM trip point at which Dynamic Timing 
Advance starts advancing the motor timing. 

 

Values from 1,150 to 20,000 RPM can be entered in increments of 1 
RPM. 

 

The Timing Set Point value must be less than the Maximum Timing 

RPM value. 

 

The value shown initially in the field is the ESC’s current value if the 
ESC is connected to the NovaLink
