Trouble(s)
Possible Causes
Solution(s)
The car slows down and then
stopped. The Red and Green LEDs
blink rapidly and synchronously
when throttle stick in neutral.
ESC detects abnormal signals from
the sensor port of the motor and the
ESC changes to sensorless driving
mode automatically.
Check the sensor wire connection.
The Hall sensors in the motor are damaged, please
change the motor.
The motor stutters and can’t start
up.
The connections between the motor
and ESC are not A-A, B-B and C-C;
The ESC is damaged
Check wiring & connections.
Contact the distributor for sales-after service.

Advanced Items
* Fwd= Forward, Rev=Reverse, Brk=Brake
Explanation for Each Programmable Item:
1 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 has reverse running function, which is suitable for daily training.
Note 2: “Forward/Reverse with Brake” mode uses “Double-click” method to make the car go backward. When you move the
throttle stick from forward zone to backward zone for the first time (The 1
st
“click”), the ESC begins to brake the motor, the motor slows
down but it is still running, not completely stopped, so the backward action is NOT happened immediately. When the throttle stick is
moved to the backward zone again (The 2
nd
“click”), if the motor speed is slowed down to zero (i.e. stopped), the backward action will
happen. The “Double-Click” method can prevent mistakenly reversing action when the brake function is frequently used in steering. By
the way, in the process of braking or reversing, if the throttle stick is moved to forward zone, the motor will run forward at once.
“Forward/Reverse” mode uses “single-click” method to make the car reverse. When moving the throttle stick from neutral zone to
backward zone, the vehicle reverses immediately, so this mode is usually used by rock crawler.
2 Drag Brake Force
：Set the amount of drag brake applied at neutral throttle to simulate the slight braking effect of a neutral brushed
motor while coasting.
3 Low Voltage Cut-Off: The function mainly prevents the Lipo battery from over discharging. The ESC detects the battery voltage at any
time, if the voltage is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds, the output power will be reduced 70%, after 15 seconds the output power
will be completely shut off and the red LED flashes in such a way: “☆-☆-, ☆-☆-, ☆-☆-”. Please stop your car at the track side as soon
as possible to avoid obstructing other racing cars.
Note 3: For NiMH battery, if the voltage of the whole NiMH battery pack is higher than 9.0V, it will be considered as a 3 cells Lipo battery
pack; If it is lower than 9.0V, it will be considered as a 2 cells Lipo battery pack. For example, if a NiMH battery pack is 8.0V, and the
threshold is set to 2.6V/Cell, so it will be considered as a 2 cells Lipo battery pack, and the low-voltage cut-off threshold for this NiMH
battery pack is 2.6x2=5.2V.
4 Start Mode (Also called “Punch” or “Acceleration”): Level 1 has very soft start acceleration, while level 9 has very quick start
acceleration. From Level 1 to Level 9, the start force is increasing. If you choose “Level 7” to “Level 9”, you should use good quality
battery with powerful discharge ability, otherwise you cannot get the burst start effect as you want. If the motor cannot run smoothly (the
motor is cogging), sometimes it is caused by the weak discharge ability, please use a better battery or increase the gear ratio.
5 Maximum Brake Force: The ESC provides proportional brake function. The brake force is related 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.
6 Maximum Reverse Force: Sets how
much power will be applied in the reverse
direction.
7 Initial Brake Force: It is also called
“minimum brake force”, which refers to the
force when the throttle stick is located at
the initial position of the backward zone.
The default value is equal to the drag brake
force, so the brake action can be very
smoothly.
8 Throttle Neutral Range: Please refer to
the picture to adjust the neutral range.
9 Timing: This function can be used to
fine-tune the output power of the motor, the
bigger the timing, the faster the motor runs or the larger output power of the motor. As the Boost Timing technology has been introduced
into this ESC, so under the sensored mode, adjust the ESC timing can greatly increase the motor RPM. Therefore, please remember to
enlarge the gear ratio of the chassis and carefully check temperatures of the motor and the ESC after increasing the timing.
Reset All Items To Default Values
At any time when the throttle is located in neutral zone (except in the throttle calibration or parameters program process), press and hold the
“SET” key for over 3 seconds, the red LED and green LED will blink simultaneously , which means each programmable item has be reset to
its default value.
Program the ESC
1 Set the ESC by
Program Card
The Program Card is
optional equipment which
needs to be purchased
separately. It has 3 digital
LEDs to display the
programmable items’
number and the options’
number. It is portable and
very easy to use.
(For detailed information,
please refer to the user
manual of the program
card).
2 Set the ESC by the SET
button
Please check the flow chat
on the right side.
Note 4:
► In the ESC setting process, the motor will emit “Beep” tone at the same time when the LED is flashing.
► If the “N” is bigger than the number “5”, we use a long time flash and long “Beep—” tone to represent “5”, so it is easy to identify the
items of the big number.
For example, if the LED flashes as the following:
“A long time flash + a short time flash” (Motor sounds “B—B”) = the No. 6 item
“A long time flash + 2 short time flash” (Motor sounds “B—BB”) = the No. 7 item
“A long time flash + 3 short time flash” (Motor sounds “B—BBB”) = the No. 8 item
And so on.

Note 5: The reference gear ratios in the above form are based on the 1/10 RC cars with 2S Lipo and 0 timing ESC. If the ESC timing is
increased, then the gear ratio needs to be increased accordingly. Besides, please pay attention to the temperature of the ESC and the motor
to avoid any damage to the equipments.
