full brake is ‘NO.’ The ESC will indicate that it has accepted your selection by producing a
continuous “skipping” tone. When you hear this tone, allow the trigger to go back to the
neutral position to advance to the next setting or option depending on your selection.
How to Get into Programming Mode:
• Turn your transmitter on.
• Plug the battery into the ESC with its switch off.
• Hold full throttle on your transmitter and turn the ESC switch on.
• The ESC will go through its boot-up sequence and blink the green LED. If the ESC’s
voltage cutoff is set to Auto-LiPo (the default setting), then the ESC will emit a
sequence of beeps indicating the number of battery cells.
If the number of beeps does NOT match the number of cells, disconnect the
battery and confirm that it is fully charged.
• There will be a sequence of four “rings” and the red LED will blink.
• Keep holding the trigger, within 6 – 8 seconds there will be a sequence of four “rings”
and the yellow LED will blink.
• You are now in programming mode; let the trigger return to neutral.
Note: Before attempting to manually program the ESC it must be calibrated to your radio.
See the “How to Calibrate the ESC” for more details.
To Make Changes in Programming Mode:
Once in programming mode, the ESC will beep once, pause, then beep once again and
repeat until a change is made with your transmitter. For instance, if you want to adjust
setting 1 (Brake/Reverse Type) to option 1 (With Reverse) you would pull full throttle to
select it. When the trigger is returned to neutral the beep pattern will change to 2 beeps
followed by 1 beep. By selecting an option, you have now moved on to setting 2 and
option 1. If at setting 2 (Cutoff Voltage) you reject option 1 (Auto-LiPo) by going to full
brake/reverse, the beep pattern will then change to 2 beeps followed by 2 beeps. This
means the ESC is still at setting 2 but is now asking if you would like to accept option 2
(None).
