4 • SPARTAN
All instructions and
precautions outlined in this
manual should be strictly
followed to ensure safe
operation of your model.
• Don’t Get Burned: The ESC and motor can become extremely hot during
use, so be careful not to touch them until they cool.
• Use the Factory-Installed Stock Connectors: Do not change the battery and
motor connectors. Improper wiring can cause fire or damage to the ESC.
Please note that modified speed controls can be subject to a rewiring fee
when returned for service.
• No Reverse Voltage: The ESC is not protected against reverse polarity
voltage.
• No Schottky Diodes: External Schottky diodes are not compatible with
reversing speed controls. Using a Schottky diode with your Traxxas speed
control will damage the ESC and void the 30-day warranty.
• Always adhere to the minimum
and maximum limitations of the
speed control as stated in the
specifications table in the Owner’s
Manual. If your ESC operates on
two batteries, do not mix battery
types and capacities. Use the
same voltage and capacity for
both batteries. Using mismatched
battery packs could damage the
batteries and electronic speed control.
LiPo Batteries
Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are becoming popular for use in R/C
models due to their compact size, high energy density, and high current
output; however, these types of batteries require special care and handling
procedures for long life and safe operation.
WARNING: LiPo batteries are
intended only for advanced users that are educated on the risks associated
with LiPo battery use. Traxxas does not recommend that anyone under
the age of 14 use or handle LiPo battery packs without the supervision of a
knowledgeable and responsible adult.
Your model is able to use LiPo batteries. LiPo batteries have a minimum safe
discharge voltage threshold that should not be exceeded. The electronic
speed control is equipped with built-in Low-Voltage Detection that alerts the
driver when LiPo batteries have reached their minimum voltage (discharge)
threshold.
It is the driver’s responsibility to stop immediately to prevent
the battery pack from being discharged below its safe minimum threshold.
Low-Voltage Detection on the speed control is just one part of a
comprehensive plan for safe LiPo battery use.
It is critical for you, the user,
to follow all other instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer and
the charger manufacturer for proper charging, use, and storage of LiPo
batteries. Make sure you understand how to use your LiPo batteries.
Be
aware that Traxxas shall not be liable for any special, indirect, incidental,
or consequential damages arising out of the installation and/or use of
LiPo batteries in Traxxas models. If you have questions about LiPo battery
usage, please consult with your local hobby dealer or contact the battery
manufacturer. As a reminder, all batteries should be recycled at the end of
their useful life.

Important Warnings for users of Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries:
Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are significantly more volatile than
other rechargeable batteries.
ONLY use a Lithium Polymer (LiPo) balance charger with a balance adapter
to charge LiPo batteries, such as the Traxxas EZ-Peak Plus Charger, part
1500
3600
Do not use a
6-cell 7.2V battery in
combination with a
7-cell battery 8.4V pack.
1500
3600
Do not mix battery
capacities. Use two
batteries with the
same capacity.
This model is not intended
for use by children under
14 years of age without the
supervision of a responsible
and knowledgeable adult.

WARNING! CAUTION! DANGER!
FIRE HAZARD!
Charging and discharging batteries has the potential for
fire, explosion, serious injury, and property damage if not performed per the
instructions. In addition, Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries pose a SEVERE risk of
fire if not properly handled per the instructions. Before use, read and follow all
manufacturer’s instructions, warnings, and precautions. Never allow children under 14 years old
to charge or use LiPo batteries without the supervision of a responsible, knowledgeable adult.
• While charging or discharging, ALWAYS place the battery (all types of batteries) in a fire
retardant/fire proof container and on a non-flammable surface such as concrete.
• ALWAYS charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
• REMOVE flammable items and combustible materials from the charging area.
• ONLY use a Lithium Polymer (LiPo) balance charger with a balance adapter to charge LiPo
batteries.
• If any battery or cell is damaged in any way, do NOT charge, discharge, or use the battery.
• BEFORE you charge, ALWAYS confirm that the charger settings exactly match the battery
type (chemistry), specification, and configuration to be charged.
• Do NOT exceed the maximum manufacturer recommended charge rate.
• Do NOT disassemble, crush, short circuit, or expose the batteries to flame or other source
of ignition.
• NEVER leave batteries unattended while charging.
