Note: We strongly advise the use of battery connections that do not allow reverse polarity , or ESC will be damaged.

Please disconnect the battery and ESC , if not use for a long time to avoid damaging battery and accidents.

First time to use remote control transmitter or change the parameters ,like throttle middle point, ATL, EPA , throttle range will be set again.

Remote control transmitter ABS must be set as “OFF”, set throttle channel direction as “REV”, set throttle trim as “0”, EPA/ATL clockwise and

anticlockwise direction of throttle channel are set as 100% ( Max.), or it may cause no work or misoperation.

Set throttle range ( refer the setting process of throttle range)

After Wire connection and basic setting, and motor prompt tone ﬁnshed, the ESC can work.

● After setting ,Turn off the power , and turn on again, the ESC will ready for working.

● Indicator function : red light ﬂashes when motor run.When motor run with full throttle ,green light ﬂashes.

Reset to factory default setting: press the “set” button more than 3 seconds, then red and green lights will ﬂash 3 times, all the setting will ●
