HITEC ENERGY SPORT ESC SERIES - Manual (Page 4)

BEC OPERATION
The Energy Sport ESCs feature an onboard BEC circuit that provides
power for the receiver and servos. Depending on the model, the BEC
is capable of supplying up to 5 amps of power. If your servos have
the ability to pull more than this current, we recommend using an
external power source. If an external power source is used, the red
positive wire on the throttle lead must be disconnected from the
receiver. You can easily lift the plastic retaining tab and slide the small
connector out of the housing. Cover this connector with electrical
tape or shrink wrap.
MOUNTING yOUR ESC
1. Choose a location that has adequate airflow to cool the ESC and
prevent overheating.
2. Mount the ESC with a combination of hook and loop tape or
double sided foam tape.
THROTTLE CALIBRATION
1. Turn on your radio and put the throttle in the full “ON” position.
2. Connect the battery pack to the ESC and wait about 2 seconds. The
motor will beep twice. Put the throttle in the minimum,
full “OFF” position and the motor will beep again. This indicates
that your ESC has established the signal range of the throttle from
your transmitter.
USING THE ESC
1. Turn on your radio and put the throttle stick in the lowest position.
2. Connect the battery pack to the ESC.
