InstRuCtion • Programmable brake types (disable/soft brake/hard brake)

Option 2:Soft brake Soft brake provides 50% of full braking power. General aircraft
• Time advance programmable (low/middle/high/auto) use, with fixed or folding prop
Thanks to purchase the TURNIGY ® brushless motor ESC.
Option 3:Hard brake Hard brake is 70% braking power. Direct drive applications where
please read this instruction booklet carefully before use. Wish you have a pleasant flight. • Governor mode (governor low/governor high) more braking power is required. Hard brake should only be used
below 12V.
• Programmable current limiting (very sensitive/standard/insensitive/disable)
4 Timing Advance
Warning • Programmable startup types (very soft start/soft start/fast start)
Option 1: Low advance Recommended for more lower pole count motors. Gives more
timing 0°~ 15 ° power and slightly less efficient.
• We strongly recommend to calibrate the throttle travel when you at the very first to use the ESC • Thermal Protection (100 centigrade)
Option 2: middle Recommended for most motors .Gives a good balance of power
or when using a new/different transmitter and receiver.
• Apply to most of inrunner and outrunner brushless motors. advance timing 5 °~ 20 and efficiency.
°
•When connecting the ESC to battery pack, please ensure that the polarity of battery is correct. • No complex programming, auto adapt work mode. Option 3: High advance Recommended for most of higher pole count motors
Incorrect polarity may cause permanent damage to the ESC and such damage is not covered by the timing 15° ~ 30 °
WARRANTY. • A LED (flashes) indicates the current limiting or temperature protection is activated.
Option4:Auto(default) Recommended for most of all brushless motors.
• When you use the ESC, turn on the transmitter BEFORE powering on the receiver. • Runs motor in forward or reverse by swapping any two motor wire connections.

• Safe “power on” arming program ensures motor will not accidentally turn on. 5 Cutoff Type
• When finishing the flying, power off the receiver BEFORE turning off the transmitter.
• Auto shut down when signal is lost or radio interference becomes severe for more than 3 seconds Option 1 :Hard cutoff When battery voltage reaches cut-off voltage the motor will
• The limiting current is set to the standard mode in factory. It is suitable for use in most configurations. (default) shutdown immediately. Motor can be restarted by closing the
Only experienced technicians can adjust this programming.
• After radio connection has been reestablished, moving the throttle to the lowest position can throttle to the lowest position and then move the throttle as
normal
• In Governor Mode, the brake is always disabled and the soft cutoff is always active. restart the motor. Option 2: Soft cutoff When battery voltage reaches cut-off voltage, the ESC will
• Changing the PWM may cause the motor to heat ahead of time. • The ESC is disabled when the voltage is over 51V at power-on. slowly reduce motor power to zero , you will notice a decrease in
power and it is time to land, the throttle maintains its full linear.
•Do not play on or near water. Never allow water, moisture or any foreign object onto the PC board of
the ESC. Use the programmable features NOTE: Soft cutoff is always automatically active in Governor Mode.
6 Soft Start
•Damage to the controller as a result of excessively high current is not covered by the manufacturer’s
WARRANTY. Option 1: Very soft start Recommended for helicopters
1 Low Cut-off Voltage
•Never disconnect the battery pack while the motor is running, as this could cause damage to the speed Option 2:Soft start (default) Recommended for most of the fixed or folding prop airplanes,

Option2:12.0v(default) 4 lipo cells
Option 3: Fast start Recommended for fastest startup.
•Never allow the separate heat sinks to touch each other or any exposed conductive surface. This may Option 3:15.0v 5 lipo cells
