XL-5 HV Battery Settings (Low-Voltage Detection Setting)

The XL-5 HV electronic speed control is equipped with built-in Low-
Voltage Detection. The Low-Voltage Detection circuitry constantly 
monitors the battery voltage. When the battery voltage begins to 
reach the minimum recommended discharge voltage threshold 
for LiPo battery packs, the XL-5 HV will limit the power output to 
50% throttle. When the battery voltage attempts to fall below the 
minimum threshold, the XL-5 HV will shut down all motor output. 
The LED on the speed control will slowly blink red, indicating a low-
voltage shutdown. The XL-5 HV will stay in this mode until a fully 
charged battery is connected. 
When you turn your model on, the XL-5 HV speed control’s status 
LED will glow green, indicating that 

Low-Voltage Detection is 

activated

 to prevent over-discharging of LiPo batteries. 

LiPo 

batteries are intended only for the most advanced users that are 
educated on the risks associated with LiPo battery use.

 

Verify that Low-Voltage Detection is ACTIVATED:

1.   Turn on the transmitter (with the throttle at neutral).
2.   Connect a fully charged battery pack to the XL-5 HV. 
3.   Press and release the EZ-Set button to turn the XL-5 HV on. If the 

LED is solid green, then the Low-Voltage Detection is ACTIVATED.

If Low-Voltage Detection is DISABLED:

1.   Make sure the LED on the XL-5 HV is on and RED.
2.   Press and hold the EZ-Set button (the 

LED will turn off). After ten seconds, the 
motor will beep twice and the LED will 
shine GREEN. Release the button.

3.   Low-Voltage Detection is now ACTIVATED.

For NiMH battery users, follow these steps to disable Low-Voltage 
Detection (NiMH setting):

1.   Make sure the LED on the XL-5 HV is on and GREEN.
2.   Press and hold the EZ-Set button (the 

LED will turn off). After ten seconds, the 
motor will beep three times and the 
LED will shine RED. Release the button.

3.   Low-Voltage Detection is now DISABLED.

XL-5 HV Setup Programming 

(Calibrating your ESC and transmitter)

Read through all of the programming steps before you begin. If you 
get lost during programming or receive unexpected results, simply 
unplug the battery, wait a few seconds, plug the battery pack in, and 
start over.  
1.   Disconnect one of the motor wires between the  

XL-5 HV and the motor. This is a precaution to 
prevent runaway when the speed control is turned 
on before it is programmed. 

2.   Connect a fully charged battery pack 

to the XL-5 HV. 

3.   Turn on the transmitter (with the 

throttle at neutral).

4.   Press and hold the EZ-Set button (A).  

The LED will first turn green and then 
red. Release the button. 

5.   When the LED blinks RED ONCE, pull 

the throttle trigger to the full throttle 
position and hold it there (B).

6.  When the LED blinks RED TWICE, push the 

throttle trigger to the full reverse and hold it 
there (C).

Note:

 If you are calibrating to clear an error code on the ESC, then 

skip step 7 and proceed to step 8.

7.   When the LED blinks GREEN ONCE, programming is complete. 

The LED will then shine green or red (depending on Low-
Voltage Detection setting). 

8.  When the LED blinks GREEN ONCE, continue holding the trigger 

in the reverse position and also press and hold the button on 
the ESC for about 10 seconds until the ESC beeps. This places 
the ESC in NiMH mode and clears any error codes. 

XL-5 HV Operation

To operate the speed control and test the programming, reconnect 
the motor wires and place the vehicle on a stable block or stand so 
that all of the driven wheels are off the ground. 
Note that in steps 1-8 below, Low-Voltage Detection is ACTIVATED 
(factory default) and the LED shines green. If Low-Voltage Detection is 
DISABLED, the LED will shine red instead of green in steps 1-8 below. 
1.   With the transmitter on, press and release the EZ-Set button. The 

LED will shine GREEN. This turns the XL-5 HV on. If you press and

WARNING: FIRE HAZARD!

Do not use LiPo batteries in this vehicle with  

Low-Voltage Detection disabled.
