INSTALLATION & CONNECTION
Install the ESC according to the diagram shown below.
Switch on the transmitter. Lift the car with the 4 wheels un-touching and turn on the
ESC power. Right after turn on the power of the ESC, you will hear a multiple sound
indicating the ESC is starting work and auto-setting the throttle neutral. When succeed
in setting neutral, it will then denoted by another confirmation sound. If it is failed
setting neutral, there will be no any confirmation sound. This ESC is applicable to the
transmitter with the setting of 50% throttle 50% brake/reverse or 70%:30%.
Adjust & make sure the Throttle forward direction coincides with the ESC forward
direction. Assure the car with 4 wheels lifted un-touching. Push the throttle trigger
forwards to start motor running, pull the throttle trigger backwards & hold it. If the
system keeps braking, the throttle forward direction coincides with the ESC forward
direction. Otherwise, if the system only has a brief braking then driving reversely, the
throttle and ESC forward directions do not coincide with each other. Change the
throttle reversing switch of the transmitter, release the throttle switch, turn off & then
turn on the ESC power again. After auto set neutral & push the throttle trigger forwards
the car should also drive forward & the non-coincidence is corrected. If not, changing
any two of the motor wires will correct the non-coincidence problem.
Motor rotating direction - Slowly apply throttle to check if the motor is rotating in the
correct direction you desired.
You may need to swap the any two motor wires to get the wheels to spin in right
directions
