notICe: Always disconnect the
battery from the ESC when you have
finished operating your vehicle. The
ESC's switch only controls power to
the receiver and servos. The ESC will
continue to draw current when con-
nected to the battery, resulting in pos-
sible damage to the battery through
over-discharge.

•
Forward Only with Brake
Intended for competition use, this
mode allows only forward and
brake controls.
•
Forward/Reverse with Brake
This mode is the basic all-around
mode, allowing forward, reverse
and brake controls. To engage
reverse while moving forward,
apply the brake until the vehicle
has come to a complete stop.
Release the brake, then apply the
brake again. While braking or in
reverse, engaging the throttle will
result in the vehicle immediately
accelerating forward.

2 drag Brake force
Adjusts the amount of brake auto-
matically applied when the throttle
is returned to neutral. This simu-
lates the engine braking effect of a
full-scale vehicle, allowing improved
turn-in and your vehicle's general
response to controls.
3 low Voltage cutoff threshold
This function helps to prevent battery
over-discharge. The ESC continuously
monitors the battery's voltage. If the
voltage falls below the voltage thresh-
old for 2 seconds, the output power
shuts off and the red LED flashes
twice repeatedly.
The cutoff threshold calculation is
based on individual Li-Po cell voltage.
For Ni-MH batteries, if the voltage
battery pack is higher than 9.0V, it will
be treated as a 3-cell Li-Po battery
pack; if it is lower than 9.0V, it will be
treated as a 2-cell Li-Po battery pack.

Cell Cell
Example: for a 8.0V Ni-MH battery
pack used with a 2.6V/cell threshold,
it will be treated as a 2-cell Li-Po bat-
tery pack and the low-voltage cutoff
threshold will be 5.2V (2.6x2=5.2).
4 Start Mode (Punch)
Sets the initial throttle punch when
the car accelerates. Level 1 gives a
very soft initial acceleration and level
4 gives a stronger initial acceleration.
5 Max Brake force
Adjusts the maximum braking force.
A higher value provides stronger
braking, but can also cause the
wheels to lock, resulting in loss
of control of the car.
