  • AFHDS ( automatic frequency hopping digital system)
  • AFHDS was developed for Radio control models and offers active and passive anti-jamming capabilities, low power consumption and high receiver sensitivity.
  • This radio system works in the frequency range of 2.405 to 2.475GHz. This band has been divided into 141 independent channels. Each radio system uses 16 different channels and 142 different types of hopping algorithm. By using various switch-on times, hopping scheme, and channel frequencies, the system is less likely to lose transmission.
  • Each transmitter has a unique ID. When binding with a receiver, the receiver saves that unique ID and can accept only data from that unique transmitter.
  • This  avoids picking another transmitter signal and dramatically increases interference immunity and safety.
  • Warning: Even with the AFHDS 2A-BS technology, if the radio system is not used in accordance with this manual, it can still fail and cause serious injury. Be sure to read and understand this entire manual, as well as the manual that came with all other RC components you are using.

Calibration

This function is used to set the neutral position for the throttle trigger and steering wheel.
Every transmitter is calibrated before leaving the factory, however if recalibration is required, please follow these steps:

  1. Turn and hold the wheel as far clockwise as it will turn, move the throttle trigger to the full reverse position and turn on the transmitter. If done correctly, both Red and Green LEDs will double flash on and off.

  2. Calibrate wheel: Turn the wheel completely clockwise, then completely counterclockwise.
    When calibration is completed the Red LED will turn off.

  3. Trigger calibration: Pull the trigger to the full throttle position.
    When calibration is completed the Green LED will turn off.

  4. Once calibration is complete press the bind button to save the settings and exit calibration mode.

Radio Functions

  • CHANNEL DESCRIPTION-
    The transmitter outputs a total of 4 channels, which are allocated as follows:

    • CHl: Steering Wheel
    • CH2: Throttle Trigger
    • CH3: Accessory Button (2 Position button)
    • CH4: Accessory Switch (3 Position Switch)
      Note: By default the output of CH3 is in the position of 1000us. Pressing the button will toggle between 1000 and 2000us.
  • CHANNEL REVERSE

    • This function is used to adjust each channel’s direction of movement in relation to its input. The STEERING REVERSE and THROTTLE REVERSE switches directly effect CHl and CH2. If the switch is up, the channel is reversed. If the switch is down, the channel is in its normal orientation.
  • TRIMS

    • The STEERING TRIM buttons are used to center the steering servo (CHl). If the vehicle steers without transmitter steering input, use these buttons to adjust the vehicle so that it drives straight without steering input from the transmitter. STEERING TRIM can be multiplexed to trim CH3 and CH4. For multiplexing instructions, refer to the [Mode Switching] section.
    • The THROTTLE TRIM buttons are used to ensure the vehicle remains still while there is no transmitter throttle input (CH2). If the vehicle drives forward or backward without transmitter throttle input, use these buttons to trim the throttle until the vehicle is completely still.
    • Adjustment range: -120us- + 120us, each step is 4us.
    • STEERING TRIM +/THROTTLE TRIM +: Increases adjustment steps.
    • STEERING TRIM-/ THROTTLE TRIM -: Decreases adjustment steps.
  • LED Indicator:

    • While using the trim buttons, the G.LED flashes slowly on short presses and quickly on long presses.
    • When the trim adjustment value is in the neutral position, the G.LED will flash twice slowly.
    • When the trim adjustment value is at its maximum setting ( + 120us / -120us), the G.LED will no longer flash with each press of the button, indicating it is at its maximum value.
  • END POINT ADJUSTMENTS (EPA)-

    • STEERING EPA is used to set the steering servo’s maximum amount of travel. This is used to ensure the steering servo provides enough throw to steer the front wheels to their maximum capacity without damaging the servo. To set the steering end points, press the “STEERING EPA (-)” button several times, then turn and hold the transmitter’s steering wheel all the way to one side. Gradually press the “STEERING EPA (+)”button until front wheels have reached their maximum steering capacity. If you hear the steering servo buzzing, press the “STEERING EPA(-)” until the buzzing stops.
      The end point adjustments can be multiplexed to adjust CH2 (throttle), CH3 and CH4. For multiplexing instructions, refer to the
      [Mode Switching] section.

    • Adjustment range: 0-120%(the default is 100%), the step value is 5%.

    • STEERING EPA+: Increases servo travel.

    • STEERING EPA-: Decreases servo travel.

    • LED Indicator:

    • When using the trim keys the G.LED will flash slowly on short presses and quickly on long presses.

    • When the end point adjustment value is at its maximum setting, the G.LED will no longer flash with each press of the button.

  • MODE SWITCHING
    This function is for reusing the STEERING TRIM and STEERING EPA buttons for different channels. Refer to the [Trims] and [END POINT ADJUSTMENTS (EPA)] sections above to view their effect on the vehicle.

    • Function settings:
      After turning on the transmitter, quickly press the Bind button twice (within 1 second) to cycle through modes 1, 2, 3, and 4. The default setting when powered on is mode 1.

    • Mode 1: G.LED flashes slowly once, STEERING TRIM adjusts CHl and STEERING EPA adjusts CHl.

    • Mode 2: G.LED flashes twice slowly, STEERING TRIM adjusts CHl and STEERING EPA adjusts CH2.

    • Mode 3: G.LED flashes three times slowly, STEERING TRIM adjusts CH3 and STEERING EPA adjusts CH3.

    • Mode 4: G.LED flashes slowly four times, STEERING TRIM adjusts CH4 and STEERING EPA adjusts CH4.

  • FAILSAFE
    This function dictates what the receiver will do in the event that it loses signal from the transmitter, this includes servo position, throttle position, etc.
    Function settings:

    • Turn on the transmitter and make sure it is connected to the receiver.
    • Hold the control surface at the desired failsafe position.
    • Press and hold the bind button for 3 seconds, the G.LED will flash for 2 seconds, indicating that the
      settings were saved.
      Note: The failsafe function is not set at the factory by default. If no failsafe setting has been set, the receiver will maintain the output of the last signal when the signal is lost. Failsafe is intended as a safety measure during transmitter signal loss and will not work if the receiver loses power.
  • BEGINNER MODE-

    • Beginner mode is designed for the people who are new to the hobby.
    • In this mode the throttle is limited to 50 percent and the channel range defaults are set to 1250-1500-1750us.
  • Function settings:

    • To switch between beginner and normal modes, press and hold the CH3 button while turning the steering wheel completely counterclockwise, as far as it can go. While holding, turn on the transmitter.
    • Note: By default, the system is set to normal mode. When set to beginner mode, the G.LED will double flash for 3 seconds after turning on the transmitter.

Radio Adjustments

Servo Reverse
While driving away from you, if the vehicle steers to the left while you steer the controller to the right, reverse channel 1 by flipping the switch labeled “STEERING REVERSE”. The switch labeled “THROTTLE REVERSE” is for reversing throttle orientation.

ESC GUIDE

Specs:

Model:| WP-1040-BRUSHED-Crawler-V4
Cont./Peak Current:| 40A / 180A
LIPO/NiMH Cells:| 2-3S LIPO / 5-9 Cells NiMH
Applications:| 1/10th Vehicles
Motor Limit 2S LiPO / 5-6 Cells NiMH:| 540/550 Size Brushed Motor ≥12T
Motor Limit 3S LiPO / 7-9 Cells NiMH:| 540/550 Size Brushed Motor ≥17T
Built in BEC:| 7.4V @ 5A (Switch-mode)
Size / Weight:| 46.5mm x 37.5mm x 27.5mm / 67g

FEATURES:

  • Waterproof and dust-proof for all weather conditions. (Note: Be sure to clean and dry ESC and connections after wet use to avoid rust.) The ESC is specially programmed for crawlers, which guarantees excellent throttle and brake linearity as well as superior control. 3 levels of drag brake: 0%, 50% and 100%, allows users to adjust brake feel for different terrains and personal preference.
  • The ESC includes low-voltage cutoff protection, thermal protection, throttle signal loss protection, and motor lock-up protection. The ESC is easily programmed using the included jumper caps.

PROTECTIVE FEATURES:

  • Low-voltage Cutoff Protection. When the “Battery Type” is set to “LIPO”, the cutoff voltage for each battery cell is 3.2V. When using a 2S LiPo, the cutoff voltage for the pack will be 6.4V. When using a 3S pack the cutoff voltage will be 9.6V. When the “Battery Type” is set to “NiMH”, the cutoff voltage (for the pack) is 4.5V. The ESC will cut throttle power output to 1/2 when it detects the pack voltage has dropped to the cut-off threshold for 2 seconds, and completely cut the throttle power output off after 8 seconds. The Red LED will blink repeatedly. Turn off the ESC and remove the discharged battery pack. Wait for the battery to cool before recharging.

  • Note: Be absolutely sure the “Battery Type” is set properly. If the low-voltage cutoff protection is activated prematurely, and you are certain the battery type is set correctly, the battery being used may not have a high enough discharge rate, or is damaged. Try another fully charged battery pack with a higher discharge rate (be sure ESC is set according to the new battery being used).

  • Thermal Protection. The ESC will cut off all power output and the Red LED will blink repeatedly when its internal tempera-ture reaches the value (105ºC/221ºF) preset by the factory. The ESC will return to normal operation when the ESC temperature falls below 80ºC/176ºF.

  • Note: If the thermal protection is activated on a regular basis, then there may be an issue with the vehicle’s power demands. The motor may be geared too high, the vehicle or load may be too heavy, the drive train may be obstructed or binding, or an improper motor is being used.
    Throttle Signal Loss Protection. The ESC will immediately cut power output and the Red LED will blink rapidly when it detects that the throttle signal has been lost for 0.1 second.

  • WARNING: To avoid short circuits, ensure that all wires & connections are well insulated and there is good contact at all connections. Read through the entire manual before operating and ensure all electronics are installed correctly. To avoid accidents, we recommend setting the vehicle on a stand, with the tires free from any contact, while connecting and adjusting electronics. Stop usage and unplug the battery immediately if the ESC exceeds 90ºC/194ºF as this may damage both the ESC and motor. Disconnect the battery after use. The ESC continually draws current from the battery (even if the ESC is turned off). If left plugged in for long periods of time, the battery will completely discharge, which may result in damage to the battery or ESC. This WILL NOT be covered under warranty.

ESC

REDCAT-WP-1040-Coe-Custom-Hauler-fig- \(16\)

OPERATION:

  1. Step 1: Connect all components (as shown in wiring diagram) and recheck all connections before moving to the next step.
  2. Step 2: Set the Throttle Range. This ESC can automatically recognize the neutral position of the transmitter, but you need to follow the following steps.
  3. Turn on the transmitter and move the throttle trigger to the neutral position.
  4. With the ESC powered off, connect the motor, battery and other devices.
  5. Turn on the ESC and wait at least 3 seconds. The ESC will automatically detect neutral. Note: The ESC will beep according to the battery type and cell count used. If the ESC is set to use a LIPO battery, the ESC will sound 2 short beeps if it detects a 2S LIPO, and 3 short beeps if it detects a 3S LIPO. If the ESC is set to use a NiMH battery, it will beep one short beep followed by one long beep to indicate self detection is over and the ESC is ready to use.
  6. ATTENTION!
  7. After turning on the ESC, you must wait (at least 3 seconds) until the self detection completes. Otherwise, it may not function properly.
  8. After turning on the ESC, if there is no power output and the Red LED flashes rapidly, it means the throttle of the transmitter is not in the neutral position. If this happens, be sure the “Throttle Trim” on the transmitter is at the “0” position, fine tune the throttle neutral position until the Red LED stops flashing.
  9. To avoid any possible injury, always turn on the transmitter first and the ESC last, and then turn off the ESC first and the transmitter last. Be sure the transmitter is on anytime the vehicle is on.
  10. Step 3: The Red LED will emit certain flash sequences while running the vehicle. If everything is hooked up correctly and the vehicle is running normal, the ESC LED should look like this.
  11. The Red LED will turn off when the throttle trigger is in the throttle neutral zone.
  12. The Red LED flashes rapidly when the vehicle is lightly throttled forward and turns solid Red when full throttle is used.
  13. The Red LED flashes rapidly when the vehicle is lightly throttled rearward and turns solid Red when full reverse or brake is used.

Note: swap the two wires from motor to ESC if you find the motor runs in reverse, but check the Throttle Reverse switch on the transmitter first.

Programming

The first row is “Running Mode”.

  • Insert the jumper into the two left pins on F/B/R to achieve the “Forward/Brake/Reverse” (F/B/R) running mode. In this mode, push the throttle trigger once to brake, release and push the trigger a second time to go reverse.
  • Note: When “Running Mode” is set to “F/B/R”, the reverse force is 50%, and the brake force will be 100% and no drag brake.
  • Inserting the jumper into the two right pins on F/B to achieve the “Forward/Brake”(F/B) running mode. It is recognized as a racing mode. In this mode, the vehicle will only go forward and brake.
  • Note: When “Running Mode” is set to “F/B”, the brake force will be 100% and no drag brake.
  • Without a jumper inserted into any slot on the first row, the running mode will be defaulted as “Forward/Reverse”(F/R). In this mode, there is no brake. The vehicle will go reverse immediately when you push the throttle trigger. Release the trigger to stop. It is usually used for crawlers.
  • Note: When “Running Mode” is set to “F/R”, the reverse force will be 100%, and the drag brake force will be activated to 100%.

The second row is “Battery Type”.
Insert the other jumper into the two left pins on the LiPo slot when using a Li-Po battery, and insert the other jumper into the two right pins on the NiMH slot when using a Ni-Mh battery. When no jumper insertion into the second row, the battery type will be defaulted as “Lipo”.
