If this occurs, we recommend you promptly land your plane and
determine the cause of the overheating.
Lost Signal Protection: The ESC will automatically cut power to the
motor when it detects a loss of throttle signal for 2 seconds, then the
motor will emit a continuous beeping tone.

connectors. If these connectors are not appropriate for your
application and you wish to change them, use the following
guidelines:
• Make sure they are rated at or above the amperage of the ESC.
• Always use new connectors.
• Make sure the cables and soldering posts are insulated with shrink
tubing.
• Make sure the battery is soldered with the correct polarity.
