Warning
1. Always attempt to y your aircraft in areas free of
people, animals, power lines, and other obstacles.
2. DO NOT approach or touch the motors or
propellers when the unit is powered on.
3. Ensure that there are no open circuits or short
circuits when soldering the ESC (Electronic Speed
Controller) cables.
4. Before takeoff, ensure that the propellers and
motors are installed correctly.
5. Ensure that all parts of the aircraft are in good
condition. DO NOT y with worn or damaged parts.
6. Ensure that all parts are firmly in place and all
screws are tight before each ight.

7. DO NOT connect the ESC to a DC regulated power
supply or the power system and the electronic
speed controller will be damaged when the product
captures energy produced during deceleration, as
this product has a default Active Braking Function.
8. Be sure to use the product in strict accordance with
the specifications (voltage, current, temperature,
etc.) listed in this document. Failure to do so may
result in permanent damage to the product.
9. DO NOT use the DJI 430 Lite ESC with other
models of ESCs.
Introduction
DJI 430 Lite ESC uses a square wave drive
supporting simple functionalities, intended to meet
the specic needs of its users. Internally, an efcient
and responsive algorithm is working hard to provide
your platform with a level of maneuverability and
stability that belies its size. Like most DJI products,
the ESC firmware can be updated, ensuring that
430 Lite ESC is constantly optimized.

Features
• Active Brake Function
• High Rotational Speed Motors
46,000 rpm (7 pole pairs)
322,000 rpm (1 pole pair)
• Maximum Continuous Current: 30A
• DJI ASSISTANTTM 2 Software
• Complete Electromagnetic Compatibility Test
Radiated emission
Electrostatic discharge immunity
Radiated RF electromagnetic eld immunity
Active Brake Function: The motor actively
reverses torque when decelerating, recovering
some of the rotational energy. Normal braking
relies mainly on air resistance.

Gain Value Settings
The 430 Lite ESC features a square wave drive. To
achieve optimal sensitivity, adjust the gain values
according to your ight control system and frame
before use. The table below shows typical gain
values used with the DJI NAZATM-M V2 ight control
system and the DJI F450 multirotor ying platform,
at a takeoff weight of 1.3 kg.

Connecting the ESCs
Tools Required: Power distribution board (PDB),
electric soldering iron and soldering tin.
1. Solder the black GND cable and white VCC cable of
the ESCs to the pads on the PDB as shown. Make
sure the solder is rmly attached to the power pads
and that there is no possibility for a short circuit.

2. Connect the signal cable to your ight controller.
The signal cable’s white wire transmits the control
signal; the black wire is for GND.
3. Connect the motor to the ESC. Test the motors and
ensure that the rotation direction of each motor is
correct. You can reverse the rotation direction by
swapping the positions of any two cables.
4. A PWM signal cable is also used to connect to a
PC to update rmware.

the cables firmly to the power hub at the proper
length (the wires should be just long enough to reach
the soldering point, facing outwards, and should not
be bunched up in front of the soldering point).
Ensure that there are no open circuits or
exposed wires when soldering the ESC cables.
•It is recommended that you solder a power
connector onto the power hub.
• DJI will release rmware updates when
available. Please refer to the ofcial DJI
website. An ESC Programmer is required for
ESC rmware updates. Please purchase this
from the DJI Online Store. Please refer to the
DJI Snail ESC Programmer User Guide for
details on rmware updates.
