The new Super Vortex-Plus Sport takes all the features of a sport-minded ESC and the RX-472 2.4GHz FH4T SSL receiver and integrates them into one
lightweight, compact unit, specifically designed for electric on-road and off-road use. Integrating both the ESC and receiver results in a much lighter
and more efficient setup than using a separate ESC and receiver. It’s the perfect combination for the sport user looking for a competitive edge.
IMPORTANT: This product is not compatible with Airtronics or Sanwa FH2 surface transmitters or aircraft transmitters. SSL function only
available when used with an Airtronics M12, MT-4S or Sanwa EXZES-Z transmitter. Super Response feature only available when used with an
Airtronics or Sanwa FH4T transmitter in SSR Mode with Airtronics or Sanwa Super Response SRG digital servos. Telemetry requires telemetry
capable transmitter (M12, MT-4S, MT-4 or EXZES-Z).

• This product is designed for use with Airtronics or Sanwa 2.4GHz FH3 and FH4T radio systems. This product will not function with any other
radio system types or brands. Functionality is limited when used with FH3 radio systems and FH4T radio systems that don’t support SSL.
• If you're using analog servos, DO NOT use SHR or SSR Servo Modes for that channel, otherwise the servos and/or receiver can be damaged.
• The antenna consists of a coaxial cable and a reception wire (the thin tip at the end of the coaxial cable). When you mount the antenna, do
not bend the reception wire. Reception performance decreases if the reception wire is bent. The coaxial cable can be bent into gentle curves,
however, do not bend the coaxial cable acutely, or repeatedly bend it, or the antenna core can be damaged.
• The antenna should be installed into a vertical plastic tube per your model's assembly instructions. The antenna should not come into contact
with any carbon or metal chassis components.
• Do not cut or otherwise alter the length of either the coaxial cable or the antenna reception wire.
• There is a danger of runaway operation if connectors loosen during use. Make sure that all connectors are securely fitted.
• The ESC is designed for use with 8.5T or greater (w/2S Li-Po) sensored brushless motors only.
• If you change the battery connector on the ESC (e.g., to match your battery’s power connector), please observe correct polarity. Plugging your
battery into the ESC with reverse polarity will damage the ESC beyond repair!
• Make sure that the motor wiring matches (A, B and C from the ESC to A, B and C on your motor). Since this is a sensored ESC, these must
match or damage to your motor and/or the ESC can result.
• The power capacitor installed on the ESC is mandatory for proper use. Do not remove the power capacitor.
• Do not use a battery with a nominal voltage greater than 7.4 volts (2S Li-Po or 6C Ni-Cd/Ni-MH).
• If the ESC and/or your battery become hot, disconnect your battery from the ESC immediately and allow the ESC and/or your battery to cool
down before reconnecting.
• Mount the Super Vortex-Plus Sport using double-sided foam tape in a position that allows for adequate airflow. Orientate the ESC so that the
cooling fins are parallel to the airflow. Do not wrap in foam rubber and do not mount inside a receiver box.
• Turn your transmitter ON before turning the ESC ON and turn the ESC OFF before turning your transmitter OFF. Always disconnect your battery
from the ESC when not in use.
• The Super Vortex-Plus Sport is not waterproof. Do not run through water or allow the product to become wet with moisture or it can be damaged.
• Maintain your motor on a regular basis to ensure high performance. Degradation of motor performance can put undue stress on the ESC,
resulting in damage to the ESC.
• The receiver operates on the 2.4GHz frequency band. The 2.4GHz connection is determined by the transmitter and receiver pair. Unlike
ordinary crystal-based systems, your model can be used without frequency control.
• Due to differences in the implementation of 2.4GHz technology among different manufacturers, the receiver is not compatible with any other
transmitter brands.
• The 2.4GHz frequency band may be used by other devices, or other devices in the immediate area may cause interference on the same
frequency band. Always before use, conduct a bench test to ensure that the servo(s) operate properly. Also, conduct checks with the transmitter
as distant as possible from your model.
• The response speed of the receiver can be affected if used where multiple 2.4GHz transmitters are being used, therefore, carefully check the
area before use. Also, if response seems slow during use, stop your model immediately and discontinue use.
• If the 2.4GHz frequency band is saturated (too many transmitters on at once), as a safety precaution, the transmitter and receiver may not pair.
This ensures that your radio control system does not get hit by interference. Once the frequencies have been cleared, or the saturation level
has dropped, your transmitter and receiver should be able to pair without any problems.
