Specifications
Note1 : BEC means the ³Battery Elimination Circuit´. It is a DC-DC voltage regulator to supply the receiver and other equipments
from the main battery pack. With the build-in BEC, the receiver needn ¶t to be supplied with an additional battery pack.
,03257$17  7KH(6&QDPHG³[[[-xxx-2372´KDVQ¶WDEXLOW-in BEC, an UBEC (Ultimate-BEC) or an individual battery pack should
be used to supply the receiver. And an individual battery pack is needed to power the program card when programming such ESCs,
please read the user manual of the Program Card for detail information.
Wiring Diagram
Programmable Items
1. Brake
Setting ˖Enabled / Disabled, default is Disabled
2. Battery Type ˖Li-xx(Li-ion or Lipo) / Ni-xx(NiMH or NiCd)ˈdefault is Li-xx.
3. Low Voltage Protection Mode(Cut-Off Mode) ˖ Soft Cut-Off (Gradually reduce the output power) or Cut-Off (Immediately stop the
output power). Default is Soft Cut-Off.
4. Low Voltage Protection Threshold(Cut-Off Threshold) ˖Low / Medium / High, default is Medium.
1) For lithium batteries, the cells quantity of a battery pack is calculated automatically. Low / medium / high cutoff voltage for each
cell is: 2.85V / 3.15V / 3.3V. For example: For a 3 cells lithium pack, when
³MHGLXP´FXWRIIthreshold is set, the cut-off voltage
of this battery pack will be: 3.15*3=9.45V.
2) For nickel batteries, low / medium / high cutoff voltages are 0%/50%/65% of the startup voltage (it means the initial voltage of a
charged battery pack), and 0% means the low voltage cut-off function is disabled. For example: For a 10 cells NiMH battery,
fully charged voltage is 1.44*10=14.4V
ZKHQ³Medium´FXW-off threshold is chosen, the cut-off voltage will be: 14.4*50%=7.2V.
5. Startup Mode ˖Normal /Soft /Super-Soft ,(300ms / 6s /12s),default is Normal.
Normal is preferred for fixed-wing aircraft. Soft or Super-soft are preferred for helicopters. The acceleration of the Soft and Super-Soft
modes are slower in comparison, usually taking 6 seconds for Soft startup or 12 seconds for Super-Soft startup from zero throttle advance
to full throttle. If the throttle is closed (throttle stick moved to the bottom position, zero throttle) and opened again (throttle stick moved
upward) within 3 seconds after the initial startup, the restart-up will be temporarily changed to normal mode to get rid of the chances 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,( 3.75e/15e/26.25e),default is Low. Note2
Usually, low timing or medium timing is suitable for most motors. In order to get higher speed and bigger output power, please choose
High timing.
Note2 : After changing the timing setting, please test your RC model on ground before taking off!
Begin To Use Your New ESC
Note3: ,QWKHIROORZLQJLQVWUXFWLRQVZHXVHWKHZRUGVRI³7RSSRVLWLRQ´DQG³%RWWRPSRVLWLRQ´WRindicate the location of the throttle
stick.
Top Position: The throttle value is 100% at this position.
Bottom Position: The throttle value is 0% at this position.
Please start the ESC in the following sequences:
1.
Move throttle stick to the bottom position (zero throttle) and then switch on the transmitter.
2. Connect battery pack to the ESC, the ESC begins the self-test process, a special tone ³ 123´ emits, means the voltage of the battery
pack is in normal range, and then N ³beep´ tones emits, means the cells quantity of a lithium battery pack. Finally a long ³beep------´ tone
emits, means the self-test is OK, and the aircraft/helicopter is ready to take off.

If nothing is happened, please check the battery pack and all the connections;
 If a special tone ³ ´ emits after 2 beep tones (³beep-beep-´), means the ESC has entered the program mode, it is because the
throttle channel of your transmitter is reversed, please set it correctly;
 If the very rapid ³beep-beep-, beep-beep-´ tones emits, means the input voltage is too low or too high, please check your battery¶s
voltage.
3. ³VERY IMPORTANT!´ Because different transmitter has different throttle range, please calibrate throttle range before flying. Please
read the instruction on page 2------ ³Throttle Range Setting´.
Alert Tone
1. Input voltage is abnormal: The ESC begins to check the voltage when the battery pack is connected, if the voltage is not in the acceptable
range, such an alert
WRQH ZLOO EH HPLWWHG  ³beep-beep-, beep-beep-,beep-beep-´ (Every ³beep-beep-´ has a time interval of about 1
second. )
2. Throttle signal is abnormal: When the ESC can ¶t detect the normal throttle signal, such an alert WRQHZLOOEHHPLWWHG ³beep-, beep-, beep-´.
(Every ³beep-´ has a time interval of about 2 seconds)
3. Throttle stick is not in the bottom position: When the throttle stick is not in bottom (lowest) position, a very rapid alert tone will be emitted:
³beep-, beep-, beep-´. (Every ³beep-´ has a time interval of about 0.25 second.)
Protection Function
1. Start up failure protection: If the motor fails to start within 2 seconds, then the ESC will cut-off the output power. In this case, the throttle
stick MUST be moved to the bottom position (zero throttle) again to restart the motor. (Such a situation happens in the following cases:
The connection between ESC and motor is not reliable, the propeller or the motor is blocked, etc.)
2. Over-heat protection: When the temperature of the ESC is over 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.
Program Example
6HWWLQJ³Start MRGH´WR³Super-SRIW´LHRSWLRQ #3 of the programmable item #5
1. Enter Program Mode
Switch on transmitter, move throttle stick to top position, connect battery pack to ESC, wait for 2 seconds,
³beep-beep´ tone should be
emitted. Then wait for another 5 seconds, special tone ³ ´ emits, which means program mode is entered.
2. Select Programmable Items
Now you
¶ll hear 8 tones in a loop. When a long ³beep------´ tone emits, move throttle stick to bottom to enter the ³Start Mode´
3. Set Item Value (Programmable Options)
³Beep-´, wait for 3 seconds; ³Beep-beep-´, wait for another 3 seconds; then you¶ll hear ³beep-beep-beep´, move throttle stick to the top
position, then a special tone
³ ´ emits, that means you have set the ³Start Mode´ item to the value of ³Super-Soft´
4. Exit Program Mode
After the
VSHFLDOWRQH³ ´, move throttle stick to bottom within 2 seconds.
Trouble Shooting
Trouble Possible Reason Solution
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 connectors.
After power on, motor does not work, such
an alert tone emits:
³beep-beep-, beep-beep-,beep-beep-´
(Every
³beep-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 emits:
³beep-, beep-, beep- ´(Every ³beep-´ has a
time interval of about 2 seconds) Throttle signal is irregular Check the receiver and transmitter
Check the cable of throttle channel
