5.0 Stick Programming Mode
Plug a battery into the ESC and hold full throttle on the transmitter before the ESC arms, or
have a helper hold full throttle before you plug in the battery. After a few seconds you will
get the four rings in a row signaling full throttle calibration. Keep holding full throttle. After a
few more seconds, you will hear another four rings in a row. After the second group of four
rings, relax the throttle to neutral. If you have successfully entered programming mode, the
ESC will beep twice, pause, and repeat the two beeps.
The programming sequence is always presented in sequential order and always starts with
the first setting in the list in the following section. The first beep(s) signifies which section of
the programming you are in and the second beep(s) signifies which setting is waiting for a
“yes” or “no” answer
