Product Usage Instructions

Attention Cautions

Completely discharge the battery or ESC may result in damage
when connected for a long period of time. This will not be covered
under warranty.

Receiver Wiring

The throttle control cable on the ESC must be plugged into the
throttle (TH) channel on the receiver. The throttle control cable
provides an output voltage of 6V/7.4V to the receiver and steering
servo, so no separate battery can be connected to the receiver to
avoid damaging the ESC.

Battery Wiring

Proper polarity is essential when plugging in the battery.
Ensure that positive (+) connects to positive (+) and negative (-)
connects to negative (-). Applying reverse polarity may damage the
external standard cappack.

Calibration and Programming

1. Begin by calibrating your ESC with your transmitter. It is
recommended to use the Fail Safe function on the radio system and
set (F/S) to Output OFF or Neutral Position.

2. Turn on the transmitter and ensure all parameters (D/R,
Curve, ATL) on the throttle channel are at default (100%). For
transmitters without an LCD, turn the knob to the maximum and the
throttle TRIM to 0. Also, turn the corresponding knob to the
neutral position. For FutabaTM transmitters, set the direction of
the throttle channel to REV, while other radio systems should be
set to NOR. Disable the ABS/braking function on your
transmitter.

3. Start by turning on the transmitter with the ESC turned off
but connected to a battery. Hold the ON/OFF button until the RED
LED on the ESC starts to flash (Note: the motor may beep at the
same time), then release the ON/OFF button immediately.

FAQ

Q: Can I connect a separate battery to the receiver?

A: No, the throttle control cable on the ESC provides power to
the receiver and steering servo, so no separate battery is
required.

Q: What happens if I reverse the polarity when connecting the

battery?

A: The external standard cappack may be damaged if reverse
polarity is applied to the ESC from the battery.

ATTENTION

This is an extremely powerful brushless motor system. For your safety and the safety of those around you, we strongly recommend removing the pinion gear attached to the motor before performing calibration and programming functions with this system. It is also advisable to keep the wheels in the air when you turn on the ESC.

1. Motor Wiring The motor wiring is different between the sensored and the sensorless; please only follow the introductions below. · Sensored Motor Wiring There is strict wiring order from the ESC to the motor, the three A/B/C ESC wires must connect to the three A/B/C motor wires correspondingly. Next, connect the ESC sensor port and the motor sensor port with the stock 6-pin sensor cable. If you don’t plug the sensor cable in, your ESC will still work in sensorless mode even if you’re using a sensored motor. · Sensorless Motor Wiring Users do not need to be worried in regards to the connectivity with the A/B/C(ESC and motor) as there is no polarity. You may find it necessary to swap two wires if the motor runs in reverse.
2. Receiver Wiring The throttle control cable on the ESC has to be plugged into the throttle (TH) channel on the receiver. The throttle control cable has an output voltage of 6V/7.4V to the receiver and steering servo, hence, no separate battery can be connected to the receiver. Otherwise, your ESC may be damaged.
3. Battery Wiring Proper polarity is essential. Please ensure positive (+) connects to positive (+), and negative (-) connects to negative (-) when plugging in the battery! When reverse polarity is applied to the ESC from the battery, the external standard cappack will still be damaged.

Begin using your ESC by calibrating with your transmitter. We strongly recommend Hobbywing users to use the “Fail Safe” function on the radio system and set (F/S) to “Output OFF” or “Neutral Position”. Example of calibrating Neutral range and Endpoint.

Release the ON/OFF button once the LED flashes.

1Turn on the transmitter, ensure all parameters (D/R, Curve, ATL) on the throttle channel are at default (100%). For transmitter without LCD, please turn the knob to the maximum, and the throttle “TRIM” to 0. Please also turn the corresponding knob to the neutral position. For FutabaTM transmitter, the direction of throttle channel shall be set to “REV”, while other radio systems shall be set to “NOR”. Please ensure the “ABS/braking function” of your transmitter must be DISABLED.
2. Start by turning on the transmitter with the ESC turned off but connected to a battery. Holding the “ON/OFF” button, the RED LED on the ESC
starts to flash (Note 2: the motor beeps at the same time), and then release the ON/OFF button immediately.
Note 2: Beeps from the motor may be low sometimes, and you can check the LED status instead.

Attention! The temperature of its Aluminum housing may be very high when there is heavy load. For precaution, we recommend users to have a fan blown towards the ESC. (Start with the ESC turned off), press the ON/OFF button to turn on the ESC (the indication LED comes on); and press the ON/OFF button again to turn off the ESC (the indication LED dies out). Note 3Do not turn off the ESC when the motor is spinning. The sudden stoppage may result in unwanted damage to both the motor and ESC. If there is an emergency, battery plugs can be pulled out to switch the ESC off.

Note 4: Item 4C (Boost Start RPM) & item 4D (Boost End RPM) are not programmable if item 4B (Timing Activation) is set to “Auto”. The PWM Drive Frequency, Brake Frequency, Brake Control, Boost Timing, Turbo Timing and relevant items are not programmable ( that’s item 2E, 3F, 3G and 8 items from 4A to 5D are
not programmable) when Sensor Mode (Item 1H) is set to “Sensored/Sensorless Hybrid”.
1A. Running Mode Option 1: Forward with Brake Racing mode. It has only forward and brake functions. Option 2: Forward/ Reverse with Brake This option is known to be the “training” mode with “Forward/ Reverse with Brake” functions. Hobbywing has adopted the “DOUBLE-CLICK” method, that is your vehicle only brakes on the 1st time you push the throttle trigger forward (brake) (1st push). The motor stops when you quickly release the throttle trigger and then re-push the trigger quickly (2nd push), only then the vehicle will reverse. The reverse function will not work if your car does not come to a complete stop. The vehicle only reverses after the motor stops. This method is for preventing vehicle from being accidentally reversed. Option 3: Forward and Reverse This mode is often used by special vehicles (rock crawler). It adopts the “SINGLE-CLICK” method. The vehicle will reverse immediately when you push the throttle trigger forward (brake).
1B. Max. Reverse Force The reverse force of the value will determine its speed. For the safety of your vehicle, we recommend using a low amount.
1C. Cutoff Voltage Sets the voltage at which the ESC lowers or removes power to the motor in order to either keep the battery at a safe minimum voltage (for LiPo batteries). The ESC monitors the battery voltage all the time, it will immediately reduce the power to 30% (in 3 seconds) and cut off the output 10 seconds later when the voltage goes below the cutoff threshold. The RED LED will flash a short, single flash that repeats (, , ) to indicate the low- voltage cutoff protection is activated. Please set the “Cutoff Voltage” to “Disabled” or customize this item if you are using NiMH batteries. Option 1: Disabled The ESC does not cut the power off due to low voltage. We do not recommend using this option when you use any LiPo battery as you will irreversibly damage the product. You need to select this option when you are using a NiMH pack. Option 2: Auto The ESC calculates the corresponding cutoff voltage as per the number of LiPo cells it detects and the “3.3V/cell” rule. For example, if the ESC detects a 2S, the cutoff voltage for the battery shall be 6.6V. Option 3: Customized The customized cutoff threshold is a voltage for the whole battery pack (adjustable from 3.0V to 11.1V). Please calculate the value as per the number of LiPo cells you are using. For example, when you use a 2S and you want the cutoff voltage for each cell is 2.8V, you will need to set this item to 5.6V.
1D. ESC Thermal Protection The output from the ESC will be cut off with the value you have preset. The GREEN LED flashes (, , ) when the ESC temperature reaches to the preset value. The output will not resume until the ESC temperature gets down. Warning! Please do not disable this function unless you’re in a competition. Otherwise the high temperature may damage your ESC and even your motor.
1E. Motor Thermal Protection The GREEN LED flashes (, , ) when the motor temperature reaches to the preset value. The output will not resume until the motor temperature gets down. Warning! Please do not disable this function unless you’re in a competition. Otherwise the high temperature may damage your motor and even your ESC. For non-Hobbywing motor, the ESC may get this protection activated too early/late because of the different temperature sensor inside the motor. In this case, please disable this function and monitor the motor temperature manually.
1F. BEC Voltage Option 1: 6.0V It’s applicable to ordinary servos. Do not use this option with high voltage servos; otherwise your servos may not function normally due to insufficient voltage. Option 2: 7.4V It’s applicable to high voltage servos. Do not use this option with ordinary servos; otherwise your servos may be burnt due to high voltage.
1G. Remote Off Option 1: Enabled Users can simply push and hold the brake trigger for 6 seconds. This option allows the user to turn off the ESC without pushing the ON/OFF button switch. Option 2: Disabled Users must turn off the ESC by pressing the ON/OFF switch button from the ESC.
1H. Sensor Mode Option 1: Full Sensored The power system will work in the “sensored” mode at all times. The efficiency and drivability of this mode is at the highest. Option 2: Sensored/Sensorless Hybrid The ESC operates the motor in sensored mode during the low-speed start-up process, followed by switching to operating the motor in the “sensorless” mode. This dual drive mode is applicable to 4WD SCT vehicles using 4 pole motors. Warning! Do not select the option 1 if you are using a non-Hobbywing matching motor, when it’s a 4 pole sensored motor, otherwise you may damage your ESC and motor.
1I. Motor Rotation/Direction With the motor shaft faces you (the rear end of the motor is away from you), increase the throttle input, the motor (shaft) will rotate in the CCW/CW direction if the “Motor Rotation/Direction” set to “CCW/CW”. Generally, the vehicle runs forward when the motor (shaft) rotates in the CCW direction. However, some vehicles only run forward when the motor rotates in the CW direction due to the different chassis design. In that case, you only need to set the “Motor Rotation/Direction” to “CW).
2A. Throttle Rate Control This item is used to control the throttle response. It can be adjustable from 1 to 30 (step: 1), the lower the throttle rate, the more the limit will be on the throttle response. A suitable rate can help driver to control his vehicle properly during the starting-up process. Generally, you can set it to a high value to have a quick throttle response if you are proficient at throttle control.
2B. Throttle Curve The throttle curve parameter reconciles the position of the throttle trigger (in throttle zone) and the actual ESC throttle output. It is linear by default and we can change it to non-linear via adjusting the throttle curve. For example, if adjust it to +EXP, the throttle output at the early stage will be higher (than the output when the curve is linear); if it is adjusted to ­EXP, the throttle output at the early stage will be lower (than the output when the curve is linear).

2C. Neutral Range As not all transmitters have the same stability at “neutral position”, please adjust this parameter as per your preference. You can adjust to a bigger value when this happens.
2D. Coast The RPM of the motor will be lowered gradually when throttle is reduced. The vehicle will not reduce speed abruptly when the throttle is reduced to return to the neutral position. The bigger the value, the more the “COAST” will be felt. Example, COAST of 0 deactivates, and a COAST of 20% would be the maximum amount of COAST.
What is COAST? When a vehicle has a larger final drive ratio, the tendency of having a “drag” feel is higher. The “COAST” technology is to allow the car to roll (coast) even when the final drive ratio is high. The Coast function brings better and smoother control feeling to racers. Some drivers will refer to this to the traditional brushed motors. Note 5: The “Coast” will be void (even if you set it to any value besides 0) if the above “drag brake” is not “0%”.
2E. PWM Drive Frequency The acceleration will be more aggressive at the initial stage when the drive frequency is low; a higher drive frequency is smoother but this will create more heat to the ESC.If set this item to “Customized”, then the PWM frequency can be adjusted to a variable value (which ranges from 0K to 32K) at any 0-100% throttle input, Please choose the frequencies as per the actual test results of your vehicles.
2F. Softening Value It allows users to fine-tune the bottom end, change the driving feel, and maximize the driving efficiency at different track conditions. The higher the “Softening Value “, the milder the bottom end. In Modified class, drivers often feel the power of the bottom end is too aggressive. Little throttle input usually brings too much power to the car and make it hard to control at the corners, so HOBBYWING creates this softening function to solve the issue. Note 6: You can increase the motor mechanical timing accordingly after you set the softening value. Every time you increase the softening value by 5 degrees, you can increase the mechanical timing by 1 degree. For example, if you set the softening value to 20 degrees, then you can increase the mechanical timing by 4 degrees. Please note that you will never increase the mechanical timing by over 5 degrees.
2G. Softening Range It’s the range to which “Softening Value” starts and ends. For example, 0% to 30% will be generated when the user pre-programs the “Softening Range” at a value of 30%.
3A. Drag Brake It is the braking power produced when releasing from full speed to neutral position. This is to simulate the slight braking effect of a neutral brushed motor while coasting. It’s not recommended for buggy and monster truck. (Attention! Drag brake will consume more power and heat will be increased, apply it cautiously.)
3B. Max. Brake Force This ESC provides proportional braking function; the braking effect is decided by the position of the throttle trigger. It sets the percentage of available braking power when full brake is applied. Large amount will shorten the braking time but it may damage your pinion and spur.
3C. Initial Brake Force It is also known as “minimum brake force”. It is the force when pushing throttle trigger from neutral zone to the initial brake position. To get a smoother braking effect, the default is equal to the drag brake.
3D. Brake Rate Control It’s adjustable from 1 to 20 (step: 1), the lower the brake rate, the more limit on the brake response. A suitable rate can aid the driver to brake his vehicle correctly. Generally, you can set it to a high value to have a quick brake response.
3E. Brake Curve This item is used for regulating the relation between the throttle range in brake zone and the brake force. The default setting is linear. You can change it to non-linear via a LCD program box and a PC (HOBBYWING USB LINK software needs to be installed on the PC.) for different braking effect.
3F. Brake Frequency The brake force will be larger if the frequency is low; you will get a smoother brake force when the value is higher.If set this item to “Customized”, then the brake frequency can be adjusted to a variable value (which ranges from 0K to 16K) at any 0-100% throttle input, Please choose the frequencies as per the actual test results of your vehicles.

3G. Brake Control Option 1: Linear Hobbywing has recommended using this mode under all circumstances. The braking effect is a bit weaker in this mode than in Traditional brake mode, but it’s easy to control and brings great control feel. Option 2: Traditional This brake mode is the same as to the XERUN series of ESCs, the brake force is stronger. Option 3: Hybrid The ESC switches the brake mode between Linear and Traditional as per the vehicle speed to prevent the slide (between tires and track) from affecting the braking effect. Note 6: Please select the right mode for your vehicle as per the track condition, motor performance, and etc.
4A. Boost Timing It is effective within the whole throttle range; it directly affects the car speed on straightaway and winding course. The ESC adjusts the timing dynamically as per the RPM (when “Boost Timing Activation” set to “RPM”) or throttle amount (when “Boost Timing Activation” set to “Auto”) in the operation. The Boost Timing is not constant but variable.
4B. Boost Timing Activation Option 1: RPM In RPM mode, the ESC adjusts the Boost Timing dynamically as per the motor speed (RPM). The actual Boost Timing is 0 when the RPM is lower than the Boost Start RPM. The Boost Timing changes as per the RPM when the RPM change is between the Boost Start RPM and the Boost End RPM. For example, if the Boost Timing is set to 5 degrees and the Boost Start RPM is 10000, the Boost End RPM is 15000. The Boost Timing corresponds to different RPM is shown below. When the RPM is higher than the Boost End RPM, the actual Boost Timing is the value you had previously set.

RPM (Motor Speed) <10000 10001-11000

11001-12000

5 Degrees

5 Degrees

Option 2: Auto In Auto mode, the ESC adjusts the Boost Timing dynamically as per the throttle amount. Only at full throttle, the actual Boost Timing is the value you had previously set.
4C. Boost Start RPM This item defines the RPM at which Boost Timing is activated. For example, when the Boost Start RPM is set to 5000, the ESC will activate the corresponding Boost Timing when the RPM goes above 5000. The specific value is determined by the Boost Timing and the Boost End RPM you had previously set.
4D. Boost End RPM This item defines the RPM at which Boost Timing (you specifically set) is applied. For example, when Boost Timing is set to 10 degrees and the Boost End RPM to 15000, the ESC will activate the Boost Timing of 10 degrees when the RPM goes above 15000. The ESC will adjust the Boost Timing accordingly as per the actual RPM when the RPM goes below 15000.
5A. Turbo Timing This item is adjustable from 0 degree to 64 degrees, the corresponding turbo timing (you set) will initiate at full throttle. It’s usually activated on long straightaway and makes the motor unleash its maximum potential.
5B. Turbo Delay When “TURBO DELAY” is set to “INSTANT”, the Turbo Timing will be activated right after the throttle trigger is moved to the full throttle position. When other value(s) is applied, you will need to hold the throttle trigger at the full throttle position (as you set) till the Turbo Timing initiates.
5C. Turbo Increase Rate This item is used to define the “speed” at which Turbo Timing is released when the trigger condition is met. For example, “6 degs/0.1sec” refers to the Turbo Timing of 6 degrees that will be released in 0.1 second. Both the acceleration and heat is higher when the “Turbo increase rate” is of a larger value.
5D. Turbo Decrease Rate After the Turbo Timing is activated and the trigger condition turns to not be met (i.e. vehicle slows down at the end of the straightaway and gets into a corner, full throttle turns to partial throttle, the trigger condition for Turbo Timing turns to be not met), if you disable all the Turbo Timing in a moment, an obvious slow-down like braking will be felt and cause the control of vehicle to become bad. If the ESC can disable the Turbo Timing at some “speed”, the slow-down will be linear and the control will be improved. WarningBoost Timing & Turbo Timing can effectively improve the motor efficiency; they are usually used in competitions. Please take some time to read this manual and then set these two items carefully, monitor the ESC & motor temperatures when you have a trial run and then adjust the Timing and FDR accordingly as aggressive Timings and FDR may cause your ESC or motor to be burnt.

In order to make one firmware applicable to all different racing conditions, there are ten “easy-to-select” preset modes (as shown below). Users are able to change the settings of the modes provided (and rename those modes) as per the control feel, track, and etc. For example, the name can be changed from “Modify” to “TITI2019_MOD_4.5” to indicate the race was
ran with a 4.5T motor at 2019 TITC. This can be saved for future reference as well.

  1. Program your ESC with a multifunction LCD program box You can program this XR10 Pro ESC via a multifunction LCD program box or via a multifunction LCD program box & a PC (HOBBYWING USB LINK software needs to be installed

on the PC). Before programming, you need to connect your ESC and the LCD program box via a cable with two JR male connectors and turn on the ESC; the boot screen will show up on the LCD. Press any button on the program box to initiate the communication between your ESC and the program box. Seconds later, “CONNECTING ESC” will be

displayed, and indicates the following parameters. You can adjust the setting via “ITEM” & “VALUE” buttons, and press the “OK” button to save new settings to your ESC.

  1. Program your ESC with a WiFi Module The XR10 Pro ESC can also be programmed via a WiFi module along with smart phone devices (HOBBWYING WiFi LINK software needs to

be installed on the smart phone). Before programming, users will need to plug the programming cable on the WiFi module into the programming port on ESC and switch on the ESC. For detailed information about ESC programming via WiFi module, please refer to the

External Programming Port for Connecting

user manual of Hobbywing’s WiFi Express. Attention! This ESC has a separate programming port. Please don’t use the throttle control cable (also called Rx cable) on the ESC to

Program Card or WIFI module

connect the program box; otherwise the program box won’t function.

  1. Data Checking

The ESC is able to record the maximum ESC temperature, maximum motor temperature, minimum battery voltage and maximum motor speed in operation. It automatically saves the recorded data to the designated area when you turn off the ESC after a run. You can check those data via a multifunction LCD program box whenever necessary.

Users need to switch on the ESC after connection between the program box and the ESC has been established. Press the “R/P” button on any “item” page followed by pressing

the “R/P” button again multiple times. The following 5 item pages will be displayed circularly: Mode ¹ ESC Temperature¹ Motor Temperature ¹ Min Voltage¹ Max RPM.

Attention! · Press the “VALUE” button on any data-recording page can get you into the next preset mode. Please note that improper operation will get you into other preset mode(s).

· Press the “ITEM” button on any data-recording page can get you to the parameter setting page of the current preset mode; press the “R/P” button if you want to return to

the data-recording page

1. During the Start-up Process · The RED LED turns on solid indicating the ESC doesn’t detect any throttle signal or the throttle trigger is at the neutral position. · The GREEN LED flashes rapidly indicating the neutral throttle value stored on your ESC may be different from the current value stored on the transmitter. When this happens,
re-calibrate the throttle range.
2. In Operation · The RED LED turns on solid and the GREEN LED dies out when the throttle trigger is in the throttle neutral zone. The RED LED will blink slowly (to confirm with ROAR’s Sportman
(or Zero Timing) rules) if the total value of Boost Timing and Turbo timing is 0. · The RED LED dies out and the GREEN LED blinks when your vehicle runs forward. The GREEN LED turns solid when pulling the throttle trigger to the full (100%) throttle endpoint. · The RED LED dies out and the GREEN LED blinks when you brake your vehicle. The GREEN LED turns solid when pushing the throttle trigger to the full brake endpoint and setting the
“maximum brake force” to 100%. · The RED LED dies out, the GREEN LED blinks when you reverse your vehicle. The GREEN LED turns solid when pushing the throttle trigger to the full brake endpoint and setting the
“reverse force” to 100%.
3. When Some Protection is Activated · The RED LED flashes a short, single flash and repeats “, , ” indicating the low voltage cutoff protection is activated. · The GREEN LED flashes a short, single flash and repeats “, , ” indicating the ESC thermal protection is activated. · The GREEN LED flashes a short, double flash and repeats “, , ” indicating the motor thermal protection is activated. · The RED & GREEN LEDS flash a short, single flash and repeats “, , ” at the same time indicating the drive mode has been automatically switched to sensorless mode from senored mode because of abnormal sensor signal when pairing the ESC with a sensored motor.

Trouble(s) The ESC was unable to start the status LED, the motor, and the cooling fan after it was powered on. The ESC was unable to start the motor, but the RED LED on the ESC turned on solid. The vehicle ran backward when you pulled the throttle trigger towards you.
The motor suddenly stopped or significantly reduced the output in operation.
The motor stuttered but couldn’t start.
The vehicle could run forward (and brake), but could not reverse.
The motor got stuck or stopped when increasing the throttle during the starting-up process.
The RED & GREEN LEDS on the ESC flashed rapidly at the same time when the throttle trigger was at the neutral position. The motor stuttered but couldn’t start.

Possible Causes
1. No power was supplied to the ESC. 2. The ESC switch was damaged.
The throttle cable was reversely plugged into the TH channel or plugged into wrong channel on the receiver.
1. The (ESC-to-motor) wiring order was incorrect. 2. Your chassis is different from popular chassis.
1. The receiver was influenced by some foreign interference. 2. The ESC entered the LVC protection. 3. The ESC entered the thermal shutdown protection.
1. Some soldering between the motor and the ESC was not good.
2. The ESC was damaged (some MOSFETS were burnt). 1. The throttle neutral position on your transmitter
was actually in the braking zone. 2. Set the “Running Mode” improperly. 3. The ESC was damaged. 1. Poor discharging capability of the pack. 2. The RPM of the motor was too high, or the FDR
was too low. 3. Set the “Punch/Start Mode” to a high level. (When pairing with a sensored motor) the ESC automatically switched to sensorless mode when it detected incorrect signal from Hall sensor.
1. The (ESC-to-motor) wiring order was incorrect. 2. The ESC was damaged.

Solution(s)
Check if all ESC & battery connectors have been well soldered or firmly connected.
Plug the throttle cable into the throttle channel (CH2) by referring to relevant mark shown on your receiver.
1. Swap any two (ESC-to-motor) wires if you are using a sensorless motor. 2. There is nothing you can do if you are using a sensored motor and your
chassis is different from popular chassis. 1. Check all devices and try to find out all possible causes, and check the
transmitter’s battery voltage. 2. The RED LED keeps flashing indicating the LVC protection is activated,
please replace your pack. 3. The GREEN LED keeps flashing indicating the thermal protection is
activated, please let your ESC cool down before using it again.
1. Check all soldering points, please re-solder if necessary. 2. Contact the distributor for repair or other customer service.
1. Recalibrate the throttle neutral position. No LED on the ESC will come on when the throttle trigger is at the neutral position.
2. Set the “Running Mode” to “Fwd/Rev with Brk “. 3. Contact the distributor for repair or other customer service.
1. Change another pack with great discharging capability. 2. Change a low- speed motor, or increase the FDR. 3. Set the punch/start mode to a low level.
1. Check if the sensor cable is loose or poor contact issue exists. 2. Hall sensor inside the motor is damaged.
1. Check if the wiring order is A-A, B-B, and C-C. 2. Contact the distributor for repair or other customer service.

Note: this section is applicable to the situation when the motor limit is regulated and the ESC timing is not regulated. 1) You can get a higher top end speed via the following methods:
· Decrease the FDR (by using a bigger pinion within the reasonable range) · Increase the Timing. If you only want to increase the top end speed on straightaway, you can increase the Turbo timing. If you want to increase the speed at different sections of
the entire track, you can increase the Boost timing. · Change another battery with higher discharge capability. 2) You can get a higher acceleration via the following methods: · Increase the FDR (by using a smaller pinion within the reasonable range). · Increase the throttle acceleration. · Increase the Boost Timing. · Decrease the Boost Start RPM & the Boost End RPM. · Decrease the Turbo Delay. · Increase the Turbo Increase Rate. 3) You can get a lower motor temperature and a longer run time via the following methods: · Increase the FDR (by using a smaller pinion within the reasonable range) · Decrease the Timing · Increase the Boost Start RPM & the Boost End RPM. · Increase the Turbo Delay · Decrease the Turbo Decrease Rate. Note: Please adjust the FDR and other parameters slightly (feel and test the ESC and motor temperatures after every adjustment.), keep trying different settings until you get the
“satisfactory” speed and the acceptable motor/ESC temperature. You can also save the “setting” for future reference or use.
