b) Programming the Special Functions
The speed controller is already pre-programmed with the most sensible pre-settings ex works.
If a LiPo battery is used as a drive battery, check the basic settings of the speed controller for whether
undervoltage protection is activated (usually 3.0 V/cell). With the undervoltage recognition deactivated, the
LiPo battery will suffer deep discharge and be destroyed.

The programming can be performed very easily via the setup button.
Proceed as follows for programming:
• Switchonthetransmitterifyouhaven’tdoneitalready.
• Switchoffthespeedcontroller(„OFF“).
• Keepthesetupbutton(2)nexttotheon/offswitch(1)
pressed and turn the speed controller on („ON“).
Continue to push and hold the setup button (2). Don‘t
release it.
• The LED at the speed controller ashes red and the
motor emits beeps (continue to keep the setup button
pushed).
• Aftersometime,theLEDashesgreen(Keepthesetupbuttonpushed).

The beeps are generated by a short start-up of the brushless motor. These beeps may be very low, depen-
ding on the motor. In this case, observe the LED on the speed controller.
