Refer to the wiring instructions and wiring diagram:
1. Motor connection:
There is a difference between connecting a sensored brushless motor and a sensorless brushless motor:
A. When connecting to a sensored brushless motor:
The ESC to Motor connections must be connected correctly, the three A/B/C ESC wires must connect to the three A/B/C motor wires
correspondingly, otherwise, it may damage the ESC. Next, connect the sensor cable of the esc and motor according to the arrow mark on the sensor connector.
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.
Note: If the motor direction is reversed, change the parameter on item 4 “Motor rotation direction” to achieve the correct setting.
B. When connecting to a sensorless brushless motor:
There are no wire sequencing requirements needed when using a sensorless
brushless motor, you can swap two wires if the motor runs in opposite
direction. 2. Recevier connection:
Connect the ESC throttle cable to the throttle channel on the receiver. Since

06 ESC Setup
1 Set the Throttle Range – ESC Calibration Process
On the first use the ESC or the transmitter changes “Throttle TRIM” ,or the transmitter has been replaced, the throttle range is need to reset. We strongly recommend to open the fail safe function of the transmitter, set the no signal protection of throttle channel (“F/S”) to close the output or set the protection value to the throttle neutral position. Thus the motor can stop running if the receiver cannot receive the signal of the transmitter. The calibration steps are below.
Hold the power button
Release the power button once the LED flashes.
1. Turn on the transmitter, ensure all parameters (D/R, EPA, 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. (If the transmitter without LCD, turn
the knob to the middle point). You don’t need to do this
step if the transmitter’s settings are default, and you
can start from the second step directly.
2. Start by turning on the transmitter with the ESC turned off but connected to a battery. Holding the”power” button for about 3 seconds, the RED LED in the
switch starts to flash, release the button immediately (if the button is not released within 8 seconds, the Bluetooth name and password will be restored to the
factory settings), and the motor will beep synchronously.
Note : Beeps from the motor may be low sometimes, and you can check the LED status instead.
Move the throttle trigger to the neutral position and press the power button.
The Green LED flashes once and motor emits “Beep” tone.
Move the throttle trigger to the end position of forward and press the power
button.
The Green LED flashes twice and motor emits “Beep-Beep” tone.
Move the throttle trigger to the end position of backward and press the power
button.
The Green LED flashes three times and motor emits “BeepBeep-Beep” tone.
3. Set the neutral point, the full throttle endpoint and the full brake
endpoint. · Leave transmitter at the neutral position, press the “power”
button, the RED LED dies out and the GREEN LED flashes 1 time and the motor
beeps 1 time to accept the neutral position. · Pull the throttle trigger to
the full throttle position, press the “power” button, the GREEN LED blinks 2
times and the motor beeps 2 times to accept the full throttle endpoint. · Push
the throttle trigger to the full brake position, press the “power” button, the
GREEN LED blinks 3 times and the motor beeps 3 times to accept the full brake
endpoint.
Note: · The end position of forward: Pull the trigger to the maximum throttle
position if it is pistol-style transmitter. Push the throttle to the top if it
is board-style transmitter. · The end position of backward: Push the trigger
to the maximum brake position if it is pistol-style transmitter. Pull the
throttle to the bottom if it is board-style transmitter.
4. The motor can be started after the ESC/Radio calibration is complete.
2 Pow er on/ of f and beep instructions
Switch instructions: short press power button to power-on, long press on power
button to shut down Power-on beep description: Under normal circumstances, the
ESC will emit a few “beep” to indicate the number of lithium cells. A short
“beep-” means the #1,
and a long “beep–” means the #5. For example: “beep–, beep-“means 6 cells,
“beep–, beep-beep-beep-” means 8 cells. Note: Motor beeping at the same time,
the ESC light flashes synchronously. For example: when the motor makes a long
beep, the esc flashes for a long time, and
when the motor makes a short beep, the esc flashes for a short time.

1. Running Mode: Option 1: Forward with brake The vehicle can only move
forward and has brake function. This is also commonly acceptable at races.
Option 2: Forward/Reverse and Brake This option is known to be the “training”
mode with “Forward/Reverse with Brake” function. The vehicle only brakes on
the first time you push the throttle trigger to the reverse/brake position. If
the motor stops when the throttle trigger return to the neutral position and
then re-push the trigger to reverse position, the vehicle will reverse, if the
motor does not completely stop, then your vehicle won’t reverse but still
brake, you need to return the throttle trigger to the neutral position and
push it to reverse again. This method is for preventing vehicle from being
accidentally reversed. Option 3: Forward and Reverse When the throttle trigger
is pushed from neutral to reverse position, the motor reverses. This mode is
generally used in special vehicles.
2. Lipo Cells: Set the correct value according to the actual number of Lipo
batteries used. The default is automatically calculated. Please note the
“Auto” option will not recognize 5S and 7S, this is to avoid mis-calculation
during actual use,for example, 6S Lipo without power may be incorrectly
calculated as fully charged 5S Lipo. Therefore, this parameter value needs to
be manually set when using 5S or 7S Lipo. Note: The”2S”option here is only
reserved in the parameter table, due to the circuit characteristics and the
suitable application of this esc, 2S Lipo is not supported.
3. Low Voltage Cut-Off: This function is mainly to prevent excessive
discharge of lithium batteries causing damage. The ESC monitors the battery
voltage at all times, and once the voltage falls below the set threshold, the
power output is reduced and the power output is completely cut off after a few
seconds. When the voltage protection is entered, the red LED flashes in the
“-, -, -“. The three levels of low, medium and high here correspond to
2.8V/Cell, 3.1V/Cell and 3.4V/Cell respectively. For NiMH batteries, it is
recommended to set this parameter to “Disabled”.
4. Motor Rotation: Setting the rotation of the motor. Due to some differences
with the drivetrains on different car kits, it is possible to that the car
will go in the opposite direction upon full throttle. In the event that this
happens, you can set the”motor rotation direction” to the opposite direction;
“CW” or “CCW”.
5. BEC Voltage: BEC voltage support 6V/7.4V/8.4V. Generally, 6.0V is suitable
for standard servos, while 7.4V/8.4V is suitable for high-voltage servos.
Please set according to the servo specifications. WARNING! Do not set the BEC
voltage above the maximum operating voltage of the servo and receiver, as this
may damage the servo/reveiver or even the ESC.
6. 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 gear.
7. Max. Reverse Force: Refers to the reversing speed. Selecting different
parameter values can produce different reversing speed. It is recommended to
use a smaller reversing speed to avoid errors caused by reversing too quickly.
8. Punch: Punch can be used to control overall motor response,in relation to
the throttle input. The higher the set value,the faster the acceleration.

are advised for softer starts, lower traction, or to help with motor
hesitations or stuttering when throttle is applied rapidly. 9. Drag Brake
Force:
Refers to the brake force generated by the motor when the throttle trigger
returns to neutral position. Typically drag brake will be 0. Drag brake can
add some heat so use only as needed. 10. Initial Throttle Force: It also
called as minimum throttle force. Adjusting this setting to the available
traction can help with acceleration. Set a lower value for low traction
surfaces, and higher values for higher traction surfaces. 11. Turbo Timing: It
can be used to provide more top speed(at full throttle). The higher the value
the higher the motor RPM will reach. PLEASE NOTE: Using the Turbo Timing will
increase the running current, and temperatures of the motor and ESC.Use this
with caution. 12. 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. If the delay is set the Turbo Timing will be
delayed for the set amount, the throttle will need to be held at full throttle
for the set delay before it initiates.
