PERFORMING A CONTROL DIRECTION TEST
Perform a control test with the vehicle wheels off the ground. If the wheels
rotate after the vehicle is powered ON, adjust the TH Trim knob until they
stop. To make the wheels move forward, pull the trigger. To reverse them,
wait for the wheels to stop, then push the trigger. When moving forward,
the wheels should maintain a straight line without any steering wheel
input. If not, adjust the ST Trim knob, so the wheels maintain a straight line
without having to turn the steering wheel.

AUDIBLE WARNING TONES
1. Input
Voltage:
The ESC checks the in put voltage when it is powered
ON. If a voltage problem is detected, the ESC continuously sounds 2
beeps with a 1 second pause (xx-xx-xx). Power OFF the ESC and en-
sure the connections are secure and that the battery power is not too
low for safe operation.
2. Radio Connection:
The ESC checks radio signal input when it is pow-
ered ON. If a problem is detected, the ESC continuously sounds 1 beep
with a 2 second pause (x--x--x). Power OFF the ESC and ensure the
radio system is operating correctly.
ESC CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Ensure proper ESC function by calibrating the ESC to your transmitter inputs.
1. Power OFF the ESC.
2. Ensure your transmitter is powered ON, the throttle is not reversed,
the throttle trim is neutral and the throttle travel range is at 100%. Dis-
able any special functions such as ABS, etc.
3. Keep the throttle at neutral and power ON the ESC.
4. The ESC automatically calibrates the throttle range after 3 seconds.
5. One long beep will sound when the ESC is ready to run.

CONNECTING THE ESC
1. Connect the RED (+) ESC wire to the RED (+) motor wire.
2. Connect the BLACK (–) ESC wire to the BLACK (–) motor wire.
NOTICE:
Always disconnect the battery from the ESC when you have
fi nished operating your vehicle. The ESC’s switch only controls power
to the receiver and servos. The ESC will continue to draw current when
connected to the battery, resulting in possible damage to the battery
through over discharge.
PROGRAMMING
The ESC comes with two jumpers pre-installed in the MODE: F/B (forward/
brake) and BATT: Li-Po confi gurations.
To change the mode to F/B/R (forward/brake/reverse) or F/R (forward/
reverse) or change the battery type to Ni-MH
1. Power OFF the ESC.
2. Disconnect the jumper from the default port and connect it to the
desired port.
3. Power ON the ESC.
If the jumpers are lost or not installed, the ESC will default to MODE: F/B/R
and BATT: Li-Po.
WARNING:
Do not connect bind plugs or receiver servo leads
into the ESC programming port. Doing so may damge the ESC
and/or components.
