2. Explanation for each programmable item
Running mode
With “Forward with Brake” mode, the car can go forward and brake,
but cannot go backward, this mode is suitable for competition.
“Forward/reverse with brake” mode provides backward function,
whichissuitablefordailytraining.
But for ESC, “Forward/reverse with brake” mode uses the “Single-
click” method to make the car go backward.
“Forward/reverse” mode uses the “Single-click” method to make the
cargobackward.Whenyoumovethethrottleleverfromforward
zonetobackwardzone,thecarwillgobackwardimmediately.
Drag brake force in neutral position
Set the amount of drag brake applied at neutral throttle to simulate
the slight braking effect of a neutral brushed motor while idle speed.
Low voltage cut-off

Acceleration mode (also called “Punch”)
Select from “Level 1” to “Level 9”. A higher number means more
aggressive acceleration.
Maximum Brake Force
The ESC provides proportional brake function. The brake force is rela-
ted to the position of the throttle stick. Maximum brake force refers
to the force when the throttle stick is located at the top point of the
backwardzone.Averylargebrakeforcecanshortenthebraketime,
butitmaydamagethegears.

the same time, which means each programmable item has be reset to
its default value.
