Warnings and Compliance

FCC Compliance Statement! The radio included with your vehicle complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful Interference, and (2) This device must accept

any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operations.

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of

the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may

cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the

equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

IC ID: 24025 (please note that there maybe additional alpha numeric codes added to this number)

This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This

device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired

operations of this device.

WARNING: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void

the user's authority to operate this equipment.

WARNING: While operating the Radio, a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters must be maintained between the

AFHDS (automatic frequency hopping digital system)

AFHDS was developed for Radio control models and offers active and passive anti-jamming capabilities, low power consumption and

high receiver sensitivity.

This radio system works in the frequency range of 2.405 to 2.475GHz. This band has been divided into 141 independent channels. Each

radio system uses 16 different channels and 142 different types of hopping algorithm. By using various switch-on times, hopping scheme,

and channel frequencies, the system is less likely to lose transmission.

Each transmitter has a unique ID. When binding with a receiver, the receiver saves that unique ID and can accept only data from that

unique transmitter. This avoids picking another transmitter signal and dramatically increases interference immunity and safety.

WARNING: Even with the AFHDS technology, if the radio system is not used in accordance with this manual, it can still fail and cause

serious injury. Be sure to read and understand this entire manual, as well as the manual that came with all other RC components you are

using.

WARNING:

• To avoid short circuits, ensure that all wires & connections are well insulated and there is proper contact at all connections.

• Read through the entire manual before operating and ensure all electronics are installed correctly.

• Use a soldering iron with a power rating of at least 60W to solder all input/output wires and connectors.

• To avoid accidents, we recommend setting the vehicle on a stand, with the tires free from any contact, while connecting and adjusting

electronics.

• Do not rev the vehicle to full throttle while the vehicle is off the ground. The tires may expand (balloon) and tear, causing injury.

• Stop usage and unplug the battery immediately if the ESC casing exceeds 90ºC/194ºF as this may damage both the ESC and motor.

• It is recommended to set the thermal protection to 105ºC/221ºF (this refers to the internal temperature of the ESC).

• Disconnect the battery after use. The ESC continuously draws current from the battery (even if the ESC is turned off). If left plugged in

for long periods of time, the battery will completely discharge, which may result in damage to the battery or ESC. This WILL NOT be

covered under warranty.

FEATURES:

• Fully waterproof design for all conditions. (Note: clean and dry ESC after use to avoid rusting connectors)

• HOBBYWING patented copper heat-conductive plates attached to the MOSFET board allows internal heat to be quickly

transferred to the CNC-machined aluminum heat sink for efficient heat dissipation.

• Dust proof and water proof switch.

• Built-in switch-mode BEC with switchable voltage of 6V/7.4V and cont. /peak current of 4A/6A for use with high torque and high

voltage servos.

• Tunable drag brake. Adjustable PWM frequency combined with advanced freewheeling (/DEO) technology guarantees great throttle

linearity and driving experience feel.

• 9 levels of acceleration/punch from soft to aggressive for different vehicles, tires and terrain.

• Proportional braking with 9 levels of initial brake force, maximum brake force and drag brake force.

• Multiple protections: low-voltage cutoff protection, thermal protection, and throttle signal loss protection.

• Easily program the ESC with the SET button, or connect to a pocket-sized Program Card. Program card available separately.

• Separate programming port to easily connect the optional LED program card to the ESC. LED program card sold separately.

full throttle endpoint.

5. Push the throttle trigger to the full brake position, press the SET button. The Red LED blinks 3 times and the motor beeps 3 times to accept the full

brake endpoint. Release the trigger back to the neutral point. (The motor can be started 3 seconds after the ESC/Radio calibration is complete)

LED Status Indicator

• The Red LED dies out when the throttle trigger is in throttle neutral zone.

• The Red LED flashes when your vehicle runs forward and it turns solid Red when you pull the throttle trigger to the full throttle endpoint.

• The Red LED flashes when your vehicle brakes and turns solid Red when you push the throttle trigger to the full brake endpoint when the “maximum

brake force” is set to 100%.

• The Red LED flashes when the vehicle runs backward and turns solid Red when you push the throttle trigger to the full brake endpoint when the

“maximum reverse force” is set to 100%.

Restore the ESC to the default values

Press and hold the SET button for over 3 seconds anytime when the throttle is at the neutral position (except during the ESC calibration and

programming) can factory reset your ESC. The Red LED flashes a long flash (the motor beeps a long beep at the same time) and then a short, single

flash that repeats indicating that you have successfully restored all the default values within your ESC. Once you power the ESC off, and then back on,

your settings will be back in the default mode.

Programmable Items Description

Program Card

A standard LED program card is included. Its friendly interface makes programming the ESC quick and easy. Before programming, you

need to connect your ESC to the program card via a White/Red/Black PVC cable with two JR male connectors (one end of the cable to

the ESC programming port and the other end to the port marked with “-/+/S” on the program card) and then turn on the ESC, all

programmable items will show up a few seconds later . You can select the item by choosing via the “ITEM” & “VALUE” buttons on the

program card. Press the “OK” button to save all new settings to your ESC. Attention! The Rx wire of the ESC (for

connecting to the receiver) CANNOT be used to connect the LED Program Card. Only use the Programming

Card Port (shown in image to the right) to connect the Program Card to the ESC.

Programming

Card Port

1. Running Mode

Option 1: Forward with Brake. It’s a racing mode. It has only forward and brake functions.

Option 2: Forward/ Reverse with Brake. This option uses “Forward/ Reverse with Brake” functions. Using the “DOUBLE-CLICK” method, the vehicle only

brakes the 1st time you push the throttle trigger forward (brake) (1st push). After the vehicle has stopped, pushing the throttle trigger forward (brake) a

second time will allow the vehicle to drive in reverse. The reverse function will not work if the vehicle does not come to a complete stop. The vehicle only

reverses after the motor stops. This is to prevent accidental reverse.

Option 3: Forward and Reverse. This mode is often used by rock crawlers. It adopts the “SINGLE-CLICK” method. The vehicle will reverse immediately

when you push the throttle trigger forward (brake). In this mode, there is no real brake function, just forward and reverse.

2. Battery Type

Option 1: LiPo. Select this option when using a LiPo battery and set the cutoff voltage accordingly.

Option 2: NiMH. Select this option when using a NiMH battery and set the cutoff voltage accordingly.

3. Cutoff Voltage

Sets the voltage the ESC lowers or removes power to the motor to keep the battery at a safe minimum voltage (for LiPo batteries). The ESC constantly

monitors the battery voltage and will immediately cut power to the motor when the voltage goes below the cutoff threshold. The Red LED will flash a

short, single flash that repeats ( -, -, -) to indicate the low-voltage cutoff protection is activated.

Option 1: Disabled. The ESC does not cut the power off due to low voltage. This mode should NOT be used for LiPo battery packs and could permanently

damage the battery.

Option 2: Auto (Low). Low cutoff voltage, difficult to get the LVC protection activated, is applicable to batteries with poor discharge capability. The

corresponding cutoff voltage is 4.5V for a NiMH pack.

Option 3: Auto (Medium). Medium cutoff voltage, prone to getting the LVC Protection activated, is applicable to batteries with ordinary discharge

capability. The corresponding cutoff voltage is 5.0V for a NiMH pack.

Option 4: Auto (High). High cutoff voltage, very prone to getting the LVC Protection activated, is applicable to packs with great discharge capability. The

corresponding cutoff voltage is 5.5V for a NiMH pack.

4. Initial Start Force

It’s the initial force applied to the motor when you slightly pull the throttle trigger from the neutral position. This is not the same as “Punch”. Lowering the

initial start force will make the vehicle ease into forward momentum providing a smoother feel.

5. Max. Forward Force

This limits the full power while the throttle trigger is pulled all the way back. It’s adjustable among 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% (by default). You can lower

down the value for better driving feel/control when you drive a crawler over difficult terrains and require control over wheel speed.

6. Max. Reverse Force

This controls the vehicles top speed in reverse. For the safety of your vehicle, we recommend using a low amount.

7. Max. Brake Force

This ESC uses proportional braking; the braking amount is decided by the position of the throttle trigger. This sets the total available braking power when

full brakes are applied. Large amounts will shorten braking time but may damage your pinion and spur gears. Lower amounts provide more gradual

braking.

8. Initial Brake Force

It is also known as “minimum brake force”. This is the brake force applied when barely pushing the throttle trigger out of the neutral zone and into the initial

braking zone. The lower the setting, the smoother initial braking will feel. For smooth braking, the default is equal to the drag brake.

9. Drag Brake

Drag brake is the automatic braking power produced when releasing the throttle trigger from full speed to the neutral zone. Used often in rock crawlers to

help hold the vehicle still while on an incline. Attention! Drag brake will consume much power, so apply it cautiously.

10. Drag Brake Rate

It’s the rate at which the drag brake increases from zero to the pre-set value when the throttle trigger enters the neutral range. A high rate will make the

vehicle stop abruptly. You can choose the drag brake rate from level 1 (very soft) to level 9 (very aggressive) as per driving conditions.

11. Neutral Range

Amount the trigger will travel while in the neutral range. Not all transmitters have the same stability at the “neutral position”, adjust this parameter as per

your preference.

12. Start Mode / Punch

You can choose the punch from level 1 (very soft) to level 5 (very aggressive) as per driving conditions. This feature is very useful for preventing tires from

slipping during the starting-up process. In addition, “level 4” and “level 5” have strict requirement on battery’s discharge capability. It may affect the

starting-up if the battery discharges poorly and cannot provide large current in a short time. The car stutters or suddenly loses power in the starting-up

process indicating the battery’s discharge capability is not good, and then you need to reduce the punch or increase the FDR (Final Drive Ratio).

13. PWM Drive Frequency

The acceleration will be more aggressive at the initial stage when the drive frequency is low; a higher drive frequency is smoother but this will create more

heat to the ESC.

14. BEC Voltage

Option 1: 6.0V. For ordinary servos. Do not use this option with high voltage servos; otherwise your servos may not function normally due to insufficient

voltage.

Option 2: 7.4V. For high voltage servos. Do not use this option with ordinary servos; otherwise your servos may be damaged due to high voltage.

15. Freewheeling

For regular vehicles, we recommend disabling this function. With it disabled, your vehicle can have quick acceleration. For a crawler, we suggest enabling it.

With it enabled, you crawler can have better linearity during a low-speed running and also less heat.
