ADJUSTING THE ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL
XL-5 Battery Settings (Low-Voltage Detection Setting)
The XL-5 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 will limit the power output to
50% throttle. When the battery voltage attempts to fall below the
minimum threshold, the XL-5 will shut down all motor output.
The LED on the speed control will slowly blink red, indicating a
low-voltage shutdown. The XL-5 will stay in this mode until a fully
charged battery is connected.
The XL-5 speed control’s Low-Voltage Detection has been disabled
for best performance with NiMH batteries. The speed control’s LED
will glow red when it is turned on, indicating Low-Voltage Detection
is disabled. Be certain to activate Low-Voltage Detection if you install
LiPo batteries in your model.
Never use LiPo batteries while Low-
Voltage Detection is disabled.
Verify that Low-Voltage Detection is DISABLED:
1. Turn on the transmitter (with the throttle at neutral).
2. Connect a fully charged battery pack to the XL-5.
3. Press and release the EZ-Set button to turn the XL-5 on. If the LED
is solid red, then the Low-Voltage Detection is DISABLED (not safe
to use LiPo batteries). If the LED is solid green, then Low-Voltage
Detection is ACTIVATED.
To activate Low-Voltage Detection (LiPo setting):
1. Make sure the LED on the XL-5 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.
To disable Low-Voltage Detection (NiMH setting):
1. Make sure the LED on the XL-5 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 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 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.
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).
7. When the LED blinks GREEN ONCE, programming
is complete. The LED will then shine green or red
(depending on Low-Voltage Detection setting),
indicating the XL-5 is on and at neutral (D).
