MST 601021 XBL Brushless ESC 50A

MST 601021 XBL Brushless ESC 50A PRO

FEATURES

Water-proof and dust – proof for all – weather races.
(Note : please uninstall the cooling fan before using this ESC in water; Clean and dry it soon after the use for avoiding the connectors get rusty.)
External programming port, easy to connect to the Program Card when setting the ESC.
Proportional brake with 4 steps of maximum brake force adjustment and 8 steps of drag brake force adjustment.
9 steps of acceleration (punch) adjustment from “soft” to “Very aggressive” to fit for different kinds of models, tires and tracks.
Multiple protections: Low voltage cut – off protection/ Over-heat protection/ Throttle signal loss protection/ Motor lock-up protection.
One-button (the “SET” button on the ESC) to set the ESC, and easy to reset all parameters to the factory default settings.
Compatible with the optional device-the portable Digital LED Program Card, especially convenient for outdoor use.

STEP 2 set up Throttle Range

CAUTION
In order to make sure the ESC fits the throttle range of your transmitter, you must calibrate it when begin to use a new ESC, or a used transmitter if some of its settings have been changed, like the Throttle Trim, DIR, EPA or other parameters. Otherwise, the ESC cannot work properly. Besides, we strongly recommend users to enable the “failsafe” function of the transmitter, set the “F/S” of the throttle channel to the Shutdown mode or set the protection value to the neutral position, so the car can be stopped if the receiver fails to get the radio signals from the transmitter. Please calibrate the throttle range according to the following steps.

LCD display on tne transmitter. please aqust the corresponding to its limit) Set the throne trim too (if there is no dsplay, then adjust the knoo to the neutral position). For FUTABATM and similar trasmtters, set the throttle direction to EV”. While the throttle direction of others to·NOR”. Please disable the bUilt-fflABS brake function in you- transmitter
when the Red LED SIMS to blink_ (If you don1 release the SET button in 3 seconds, the ESC Will enter the program mode, in such a case, please switch off the ESC and re-cafibrate the throttle range again from Step 1.)

STEP 3 check the LED Status in Normal Running

When the throttle stick is in the neutral range, neither the Red LED nor the Green LED lights up;
When the car moves forward, the Red LED solidly lights; the Green LED also lights up when the throttle stick is at the top position (100% throttle);
When the car brakes, the Red LED solidly lights; the Green LED also lights up when the throttle stick is at the bottom position and the maximum brake force is set to 100%;
When the car reverses, the Red LED solidly lights; the Green LED also lights up when the throttle stick is at the bottom position and the maximum reverse force is set to 100%.

EXPLANATION FOR THE BEEP SOUND
In normal case, when the ESC is switched on, the motor will emit several “Beep” tones to express the cell count of the battery pack. For example, “Beep-Beep-” means 2S LiPo, “Beep-Beep-Beep-” means 3S LiPo.

PROGRAM THE ESC

STEP 1 Program the ESC with the SET Button

In the programming process, the motor will emit “Beep” tone while the LED is flashing. If the “N” is bigger than the number “5”, we use a long time flash and long “Beep-” tone to represent “5”, so it is easy to identify the items of the big number. For example, if the LED flashes as the following:

“A long time flash+ 1 short time flash” (Motor sounds “B-B”) = the No. 6 item.
“A long time flash + 2 short lime flash” (Motor sounds “B-BB”) = the No. 7 item.
“A long time flash + 3 short time flash” (Motor sounds “B-BBB”) = the No. 8 item, and so on.

STEP 2 set the ESC by the Program Card
The Program Card is optional equipment which needs to be purchased separately. It has 3 digital LEDs to display the programmable items’ number and the options· number. (Please refer to the user manual of the program card for detail info)

RESET ALL ITEMS TO DEFAULT VALUES

Al any lime when the throttle is located in neutral zone (except in the throttle calibration or parameters program process), press and hold the “SET” key for over 3 seconds, the red LED and green LED will flash simultaneously , which means each programmable item has be reset to its default value. The ESC needs to be restarted to complete the reset process.

Running Mode: With “Forward with Brake” mode, the car can go forward and brake, but cannot go backward, this mode is suitable for competition; “Forward / Reverse with Brake” mode provides backward function, which is suitable for daily training.
Note : “Forward/Reverse with Brake” mode uses “Double-click” method to make the car go backward. When you move the throttle slick from forward zone to backward zone for the first time (The 1st “click”), the ESC begins to brake the motor, the motor speeds down but ii is still running, not completely stopped, so the backward action is NOT happened immediately. When the throttle stick is moved to the backward zone again (The 2nd “click”), if the motor speed is slowed down to zero, then the backward action will happen. The “Double-Click” method can prevent mistakenly reversing action when the brake function is frequently used in steering. By the way, in the process of braking or reversing, if the throttle stick is moved to forward zone, the motor will run forward at once.
Drag Brake Force: Set the amount of drag brake applied at neutral throttle to simulate the slight braking effect of a neutral brushed motor while coasting.
Low Voltage Cut-Off: The function mainly prevents the Lipe battery from over discharging. The ESC detects the battery voltage at any time, if the voltage is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds, the output power will be reduced 70%, after 15 seconds the output power will be completely shut off and the red LED flashes in such a way:” . Please stop your car at the track side as soon as possible to avoid obstructing other racing cars.
Start Mode (Also called “Punch” or “Acceleration”): Level 1 has very soft start acceleration, while level 4 has very quick start acceleration. From Level 1 to Level 4, the start force is increasing.
Maximum Brake Force: The ESC provides proportional brake function. The brake force is related to the position of the throttle stick. Maximum brake force refers to the force when the throttle slick is located at the top point of the backward zone. A very large brake force can shorten the brake time, but it may damage the gears.
