Instruction Manual 

the Minimum Brake value 
graphically by grabbing the bold 

horizontal line in the red section 
with your cursor and dragging it up 

or down. This will also adjust the 
Drag Brake value if the Independent Drag Brake feature is set to 

"Off". 

 

* You must press "Enter" for the software to recognize the custom value. 

 

Minimum Drive 

Minimum Drive is the amount of forward drive applied with the first 

pulse of transmitter throttle information. 
 

This setting is measured as a percentage of full throttles. There are 

Ten preset selections in the drop down menu. Custom values can be 
entered in increments of 0.1%* 

 

Increasing the Minimum Drive setting starts the forward drive at a 

stronger/higher level, causing the vehicle to take off more 
aggressively from neutral. This is useful in compensating heavier 

vehicles, minimizing the amount of trigger throw required before 
effective drive is applied. Minimum Drive may need to be reduced to 
compensate for low traction conditions. 

 

Minimum Drive is featured in green 

in the chart below. You can control 
the Minimum Drive value 

graphically by grabbing the bold 
horizontal line in the green section with your cursor and dragging it 

up or down.

 

 

 

* You must select "Enter" for the software to recognize the custom value. 

 

Motor Rotation 

This feature allows you to change the rotational direction of the 

motors output/pinion shaft. 
 

There are two settings: CCW (counter-clockwise) and CW (clockwise). 

CCW is standard in most vehicles and is the default setting. 

 

For optimal performance, you should use the correct rotation setting 
for the motor instead of reversing the transmitters channel throw. 

 

Note: Advanced timing is not available in clockwise rotation. 

 

Reverse

 

Changing this feature activates or deactivates the speed controls 

reverse functionality. 

 

There are two settings. Selecting "Off" (default) will disable the 

reverse function and the ESC will have only forward and brakes. 
Selecting "On" will enable reverse in addition to forward and brakes. 
To use reverse, simply push the trigger in the braking direction a 

second time.
