GB - Programming the ESC
1. Cutoff Voltage
Automatically detect the number of the cells.
According to the type of your batteries , set up the type of the
batteries and Low Voltage Cutoff Threshold via PC software
or program card. The ESC can detect the Voltage of the battery
anytime and will stop working once the Voltage of the battery is
lower than the preset Low Voltage Cutoff Threshold.
2. Running Mode
•
Forward w/o Reverse
This is a Race setting - Reverse is disabled. You will find in
racing, most tracks will not allow racing with reverse enabled.
•
Forward with pause then Reverse: (Default)
General bashing around (FUN) or racing if reverse is allowed
for the event. The Electronic Speed Controller requires 2
seconds of continuous neutral from the transmitter prior to
allowing reverse to operate.
Note:
There is automatic protection within the ESC. Only after you
have stopped and returned the trigger to neutral will reverse
become available. If while traveling in reverse, pull the trigger
to go forward. This is to help prevent serious damage to the
drive train.
•
Forward / Reverse
If the option is actived, the RC car could go forward and
backward, but couldn`t brake.
3. Motor Timing
This option affects the power band and efficiency (run time) of
an electric motor. The default is "Normal" and is a good starting
point to deliver power and provide good run time.
•
Very Low
Provides maximum efficiency with less power. Higher timing
produces significantly more power but at the expense of
efficiency (less run time) and typically the motor will generate
more heat. Each brushless motor will respond to timing
differently. Good for running around on paved, or harder
surfaces, and racing with high KV rated or low-turn motors
•
Low
Provides power for running through soft surfaces, having fun
and longer run time.
•
Normal (Default)
Good mix of power and efficiency using any motor
•
High More power than efficiency so run time will reduce, and
you should be monitoring motor heat. The higher KV or lower
turn motors will generate heat quickly using this setting. A safe
high temperature range is 165F to 180F (74° - 82°C), going
higher may damage your motor.
•
Very high
This is maximum power and must be used with caution.
Note:
Any motor has the potential to over-heat in this setting.
Frequently check the motor temperature and make sure you're
not operating higher than 165° and 180° Fahrenheit
(74°- 82° C), which may damage your motor, or damage your
Electronic Speed Controller (ESC).
4. Initial Acceleration
Use this to limit the initial power that is sent to the motor when
starting from a complete stop.
Using the low option, the vehicle will launch very slowly and
provide the longest run times. When using the HIGH choice,
you will have wheel-spinning acceleration at the cost of run
time. This is also very tough on the batteries as the amperage
draw can be very high. If your vehicle cuts out, hesitates or
loses radio control, you should consider setting this at a lower
value.
•
Low
Using this option will provide longer run times and is easiest on
the batteries. It is a good choice for beginners.
•
Medium
Medium requires more from your batteries, and is good for low
traction surfaces.
•
High
This option will provide full acceleration and requires stout
batteries to supply the load required in this setting.
•
Very high
This option will provide full acceleration and requires stout
batteries to supply the load required in this setting.
5. Throttle Percent Reverse
Use this to limit the power available using reverse throttle. The
lower the percent or level the less speed will be available in
reverse. 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60% ( Default), 70%, 80%,
90%, 100%
6. Throttle Limit
The lower the percent the less forward throttle speed will be
available.0%(Default), 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%,
90%
7. Percentage Braking
Gives you the ability to have full control over the amount of
brake your vehicle will have. 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%,
50% (Default), 60%, 70%, 80%, 100%
8. Percentage Drag Brake
0% (Default), 4%, 8%, 12%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%
The drag brake function provides the driver a set percentage of
brake when you have the transmitter resting in neutral. This will
create the "feel" of a brushed motor. Drag brake are used in
racing to slow a vehicle as you let off approaching a corner
versus the driver having to push the brake at every corner. Try
working with this to get a sense of how you might use this for
your track. If you are running on a high traction track with tight
corners, a stronger setting should work best. If you are running
in an open area, you will find a smaller percentage will result in
better control. If you are running in dusty or slippery surfaces,
you will more than likely want to use the lowest option.
9. Motor Rotation
Normal (default), Reverse
10. Neutral Range
This setting adjusts the amount of "Deadband" off neutral on
the throttle trigger. This is in Milli-Seconds (MS) and is the
amount of neutral when you pull the trigger. The smaller the
value the less "Deadband" or movement is required off-center
for the ESC to begin throttle functions. Using a higher value for
this setting will provide a wider Deadband.
