Programmable Items (The option written in bold font is the default setting)

1. Brake Setting Enabled /：Disabled

2. Battery Type / NiMH：Lipo

3. Low Voltage Protection Mode(Cut-Off Mode) /Cut-Off (Immediately stop the：Soft Cut-Off (Gradually reduce the output power)

output power)

4. Low Voltage Protection Threshold(Cut-Off Threshold) Low / / High：Medium

1) For lithium battery, the battery cell number is calculated automatically. Low / medium / high cutoff voltage for each cell is:

2.85V/3.15V/3.3V. For example: For a 3S Lipo, when “Medium” cutoff threshold is set, the cut-off voltage will be:

3.15*3=9.45V

2) For NiMH battery, low / medium / high cutoff voltages are 0%/50%/65% of the startup voltage (i.e. the initial voltage of

battery pack), and 0% means the low voltage cut-off function is disabled. For example: For a 6 cells NiMH battery, fully

charged voltage is 1.44*6=8.64V, when “Medium” cut-off threshold is set, the cut-off voltage will be: 8.64*50%=4.32V。

5. Startup Mode /Soft /Super-Soft (300ms / 1.5s / 3s)：Normal

a) Normal mode is suitable for fixed-wing aircraft. Soft or Super-soft modes are suitable for helicopters. The initial acceleration of

the Soft and Super-Soft modes are slower, it takes 1.5 second for Soft startup or 3 seconds for Super-Soft startup from initial

throttle advance to full throttle. If the throttle is completely closed (throttle stick moved to bottom position) and opened again

(throttle stick moved to top position) within 3 seconds after the first startup, the re-startup will be temporarily changed to normal

mode to get rid of the chance of a crash caused by slow throttle response. This special design is suitable for aerobatic flight

when quick throttle response is needed.

6. Timing： ° ° °Low / Medium / High,( 3.75 /15 /26.25 )

Usually, low timing is suitable for most motors. To get higher speed, High timing value can be chosen.

Begin To Use Your New ESC

IMPORTANT! Because different transmitter has different throttle range, please calibrate throttle range before flying.

Throttle range setting (Throttle range should be reset whenever a new transmitter is being used)

Normal startup procedure

Protection Function

1. Start up failure protection: If the motor fails to start within 2 seconds of throttle application, the ESC will cut-off the output power. In this

case, the throttle stick be moved to the bottom again to restart the motor. (Such a situation happens in the following cases: TheMUST

connection between ESC and motor is not reliable, the propeller or the motor is blocked, the gearbox is damaged, etc.)

2. Over-heat protection: When the temperature of the ESC is over about 110 Celsius degrees the ESC will reduce the output power.,

3. Throttle signal loss protection: The ESC will reduce the output power if throttle signal is lost for 1 second, further loss for 2 seconds

will cause the output to be cut-off completely.

Trouble Shooting

Trouble

Possible Reason

Action

After power on, motor does not work, no

sound is emitted

The connection between battery

pack and ESC is not correct

Check the power connection.

Replace the connector.

After power on, motor does not work,

such an alert tone is emitted:

“beep-beep-, beep-beep-,beep-beep-”

(Every “beep-beep-” has a time interval

of about 1 second)

Input voltage is abnormal, too high

or too low.

Check the voltage of battery pack

After power on, motor does not work,

such an alert tone is emitted:

“beep-, beep-, beep- ”(Every “beep-” has

a time interval of about 2 seconds)

Throttle signal is irregular

Check the receiver and transmitter

Check the cable of throttle channel

After power on, motor does not work,

such an alert tone is emitted:

The throttle stick is not in the

bottom (lowest) position

Move the throttle stick to bottom position

“beep-, beep-, beep-” (Every “beep-” has

a time interval of about 0.25 second)

After power on, motor does not work, a

special tone “ ” is emitted after 2

beep tone (beep-beep-)

Direction of the throttle channel is

reversed, so the ESC has entered

the program mode

Set the direction of throttle channel correctly

The motor runs in the opposite direction

The connection between ESC and

the motor need to be changed.

Swap any two wire connections between ESC and

motor

Program the ESC with your transmitter (4 Steps)

Note: Please make sure the throttle curve is set to 0 when the

throttle stick is at bottom position and 100% for the top position.

1. Enter program mode

2. Select programmable items

3. Set item’s value (Programmable value)

4. Exit program mode

1. Enter program mode

1) Switch on transmitter, move throttle stick to top

position, connect the battery pack to ESC

2) Wait for 2 seconds, the motor should emit

special tone like “beep-beep-”

3) Wait for another 5 seconds, special tone like

“ ” should be emitted, which means

program mode is entered

4. Exit program mode

There are 2 ways to exit

program mode:

1. In step 3, after special

tone “ ”, please

move throttle stick to

the bottom position

within 2 seconds.

2. In step 2, after tone

“beep-----beep-----”(th

at is: The item #8),

move throttle stick to

bottom within 3

seconds.

3. Set item value (Programmable value)

You will hear several tones in loop. Set the value matching to a tone by moving throttle stick

to top when you hear the tone, then a special tone “ ” emits, means the value is set

and saved. (Keeping the throttle stick at top, you will go back to Step 2 and you can select

other items; or moving the stick to bottom within 2 seconds will exit program mode directly)

2. Select programmable items

After entering program mode, you will hear 8 tones in a loop with

the following sequence. If you move the throttle stick to bottom

within 3 seconds after one kind of tones, this item will be selected.

1. “beep” brake (1 short tone )

2. “beep-beep-” battery type (2 short tone)

3. “beep-beep-beep-” cutoff mode (3 short tone)

4. “beep-beep-beep-beep-” cutoff threshold (4 short tone)

5. “beep-----” startup mod e (1 long tone)

6. “beep-----beep-” timing (1 long 1 short)

7. “beep-----beep-beep-” set all to default (1 long 2 short)

8. “beep-----beep-----” exi t (2 l o ng ton e )

Note: 1 long “beep-----” = 5 short “beep-”

Move throttle stick

to bottom position

and then switch

on transmitter.

Connect battery pack

to ESC, special tone

like “ 123” means

power supply is OK

When self-test is

finished, a long

“beep-----” tone

should be emitted

Move throttle stick

upwards to go flying

Several “beep-” tones

should be emitted to

present the amount of

lithium battery cells

Switch on the

tra n s m it te r,

move throttle

st i c k t o t h e

t op po si ti on

Connect battery

pack to the

ESC, and wait

for about 2

seconds

The “Beep-Beep-” tone

should be emitted,

means the top point of

throttle range has been

confirmed

Move throttle stick to the

bottom position, several

“beep-” tones should be

emitted to present the

amount of battery cells

A long “Beep-” tone should

be emitted, means the

lowest point of throttle

range has been correctly

confirmed
