Specifications
ǏBegin To Use The New ESCǐ
Warning! For safety, please always keep the propeller away from human body or any other object.
STEP #1. Connect the ESC, motor, receiver, battery and servo according to the following diagram.
The output wires of A, B, C of the ESC can be connected with the motor wires freely (without any order). If the motor runs
in the opposite direction, please swap any two wire connections.
STEP #2. Throttle Range Setting (Throttle Range
Calibration)
In order to make the ESC fit the throttle range, you
must calibrate it for the following cases; otherwise the
ESC cannot work properly.
Ź Begin to use a new ESC;
Ź Begin to use a new transmitter;
Ź Change the settings of neutral position of the
throttle stick, ATV or EPA parameters, etc.
The Normal Start Process
1. Move the throttle stick to the neutral position or the bottom position, and then turn on the transmitter.
2. Connect the battery pack to the ESC.

easy to be damaged.
4. Move the throttle stick upwards, the motor begins to run and speeds up.
The LED Status
There is a red LED in the ESC, the usages are:
1. The LED lights when the throttle stick is moved to the maximum position (full throttle).
2. When setting the throttle range or setting the programmable items of the ESC, the LED flashes at the same time
when the motor beeps.
