Transmitter
Stick Programmable Functions
Initial
throttle range setup. Perform throttle range setup before the first use of
the ESC.
Remove propeller from motor while performing
initial throttle range setup.
1.0 Throttle range setup (full throttle and stop).
1.1 Turn on transmitter and set throttle to
maximum position.
1.2 Connect battery to ESC. After approximately 2
seconds, the LED flashes rapidly, then 1 second after you will hear 2
beeps (1 KHZ tone) confirming the maximum throttle position has been set.
(If at this time, you leave the throttle stick at maximum position for
over 10 seconds, the ESC will reset itself to Factory default throttle
setting.)
1.3 Move throttle to minimum position within 10
seconds and hold throttle at minimum position, the LED flashes slowly for
1 second. Then you will hear 2 beeps (1 KHZ tone) indicating minimum
throttle position is set and confirmed. You only need to do this once as
throttle range will be stored in the memory of the speed controller. You
can reset the throttle range by performing steps 1.1 to 1.3 again
2.0 Start using the ESC
2.1 Turn on the transmitter with the throttle
stick set at minimum position.
2.2 Connect the battery to the ESC. The LED
flashes rapidly for 1 second, and then you will hear 2 beeps (1KHZ tone)
confirming minimum throttle position detected. Then you will hear one beep
(1 KHZ tone) confirming the ESC is armed and ready. You¡¦re ready to fly.
If you don¡¦t receive the armed confirmation the go to the trouble-shooting
section
Trouble-shooting
If you hear a pulsed warning tone and/or see a
continuous flashing LED after powering up the ESC:
Check your transmitter. Is it on? If yes.
Check the ESC servo connection? Connection good?
If yes.
Check the motor connection to the ESC, reconnect
them if necessary.
Check your battery. Fully charged? Replace battery
if necessary.
Try another receiver.
Disconnect battery and then reconnect battery and
start at step 2.0 again.

Speed controller programming card user manual
A total of 12 DIP switches and a send button are
on the programmer.
1 is equal to ON and 0 is equal to OFF.
On is marked in the upper left hand corner of the
DIP switch assembly.
[1]=ON [0]=OFF
Switch 1 [1] = factory default setting
Battery = Lipo
Brake = light brake
Motor start = 0.3sec medium soft start
Frequency = 8 KHz
Timing = automatic
[0] = user selectable setup mode.
With switch 1 in the [1] or ON position, all other
DIP switch positions are ignored.
With switch 1 in the [0] or OFF position, all
other DIP switch positions are used.
Switch 2 and 3 Battery type selection.
[0][0] = NICAD or NIMH cut-off to 50% power at
0.88Volts /Cell
[1][1] = Lipo cut-off to 50% power at
3.1Volts/Cell
Switch 4 and 5 Brake setup.
[0][0] brake disable.
[1][0] Light brake.
[0][1] Medium brake.
[1][1] Hard brake
Switch 6 and 7 Motor start setup.
[0][0] fast acceleration 0.15second second delay

delay
[0][1] moderately slow acceleration 0.7 second
delay
[1][1] slow acceleration 1second delay
Switch 8 and 9 ESC switching frequency*
[0][0]=8KHZ
[1][0]=16KHZ
[0][1]= 32KHZ
[1][1]=RESERVED SWITCH POSITION (NO FUNCTION)
*If you don¡¦t understand this setting, leave it at
8 KHz.
Switch 10 and 11 AND 12 Timing*
[0][0][0]=AUTOMATIC
[1][0][0]= 5¢X
[0][1][0]= 12¢X
[1][1][0]= 18¢X
[0][0][1]= 25¢X
* If you don¡¦t understand this setting, just leave
it on AUTOMATIC.
ESC setup with programming card
Step 1) Without the battery power connected to the
ESC, plug in the servo cable of the ESC into the programmer card with the
switches set to your desired position.
Step 2) Connect battery power to ESC and you will
hear 3 beeps. This confirms the ESC is connected to the programmer
Step 3) Push and hold the send button of the
programmer card until you hear 3 beeps of 1 second intervals. This
confirms the ESC has received the setup configuration.
Step 4) Disconnect the
battery from the ESC and unplug the ESC from the programmer card. Your ESC
is now ready to be plugged into the receiver. Enjoy flying!
CAUTIONS!
¡P
NEVER reverse the
polarity from battery to ESC.
¡P
Futaba transmitters should
have throttle channel set to ¡§reverse¡¨.
Always test the ESC with
your transmitter and receiver before actual
use.
¡P
When testing, be sure the
motor is properly mounted, without
propeller attached.
¡P
Be sure to check that no one
is using your frequency before flight.
¡P
Always position yourself
behind a spinning propeller, not in front.
¡P
Be sure to switch off the ESC and Disconnect the Battery
Pack immediately after your flight
has ended.
¡P
RC aircraft power systems are
dangerous. Please act with
caution accordingly.

speed controllers are fully guaranteed against defects in material or
workmanship for 12 months from date of purchase. The warranty does NOT cover damage
to reverse-polarity connection of the battery, water or crash damage,
nor any other claim not arising from a defect in
materials or assembly. You must contact your selling dealer
