Novak Rooster Crawler ESC User Manual
L I - P O C U T- O F F C I R C U I T R Y
The Rooster Crawler ESC has a built-in Novak Smart-Stop Li-Po Cut-Off
Circuitry for safe, worry-free operation when using Lithium Polymer batteries.
When the speed control is in Throttle Prole 2, the Smart-Stop Li-Po Cut-Off
circuitry is active.
The Smart-Stop Cut-Off circuitry constantly monitors the Li-Po battery’s
pack voltage. When the pack’s voltage begins to get close to the critical
safety voltage, the Cut-Off circuitry will start interrupting, or ‘blipping’ the
throttle output. This ‘blipping’ acts as an early warning to you that the battery
voltage is getting low, and that the throttle output to the motor will soon
be completely shut off. At this point, you should stop driving to save your
battery from damage.
When the battery pack’s critical safety voltage is nally reached, the SmartStop Cut-Off circuitry will completely shut down the throttle output signal to
the motor to keep the battery voltage from dropping further
LEDs will alternately ash--you will still have steering control).
pack after Smart-Stop circuitry shuts off throttle.
After a short resting period, the battery’s voltage will rise back above the
critical safety voltage, and the ESC will operate normally again for a short
period of time. This is not good for the battery pack, as reaching the
critical safety voltage too many times can also cause damage to the
cells. DO NOT CONTINUE TO RUN VEHICLE AFTER THE SMART-STOP
HAS SHUT DOWN THE THROTTLE OUTPUT FOR THE FIRST TIME.
If Throttle Prole 2 is used with Ni-Cd or Ni-MH type batteries, the cut-off
circuitry will shut off the speed control’s throttle output very early into the
battery pack’s runtime, due to the different characteristics of these batteries–

The Rooster Crawler ESC also features a set of power output pins for running
auxiliary cooling fans. This allows you to add cooling fans to either the motor,
the speed control, or both, and the best part is that they will automatically
switch off when you turn off the speed control’s power switch.
These pins output 6.0 volts DC (the same as the BEC), so you will get
maximum output from your cooling fans.

If you are going to use connectors on the ESC’s motor wires, we highly
suggest Dean’s Ultra plugs or Novak’s low-loss connectors--do not use
crimp type connectors.
aware that this can void the warranty if not done properly.
To prevent possible cross-connection of motor and battery wires:
• Use connectors that cannot be plugged in backwards. Reverse voltage

Be sure to position the ESC with the power wires away from other electronics
& moving parts in the vehicle. Select a location that allows airow through
heat sinks--If the ESC gets good air ow, it will run cooler; and that
means it will be more efcient!
1. MOUNT ESC IN THE VEHICLE using the included double-sided tape.
Be sure receiver & antenna are mounted as far from ESC, power
wires, battery, & servo as possible--these components all emit RF
noise when throttle is applied. On graphite or aluminum chassis
vehicles, it may help to place receiver on edge with crystal & antenna
as far above chassis as possible.
Note: Mount antenna as close to receiver as possible--trail any excess wire off top
of antenna mast (cutting or coiling excess antenna wire will reduce radio range).
2. MOUNT POWER CAPACITOR IN THE VEHICLE using the included
double-sided tape, or secure it to part of the vehicle with a tie-wrap. The
Power Capacitor can also be tie-wrapped along the battery power wires.
If the Power Capacitor becomes dented or damaged, ESC failure
