Throttle Signal
SMART Throttle*:
Spektrum™ Avian™ ESCs are compatible with SMART Throttle. SMART Throttle combines throttle signals with telemetry data from the ESC on one normal three-wire servo connector. SMART Throttle compatible receivers will automatically detect a SMART Throttle ESC and begin to send telemetry information to your transmitter.
Using the SMART Throttle connection, this ESC can send voltage current and other telemetry data. It can also pass along battery data from compatible Spektrum SMART batteries. A Spektrum SMART battery with an IC™ connector is required for battery data. EC™ connectors are compatible for basic operation, but will not provide SMART battery data.
Only certain Spektrum telemetry receivers include SMART Throttle; check your receiver manual for more information. If the ESC is not connected to a SMART Throttle compatible receiver, no telemetry data from the ESC will be available, but the ESC will operate normally with a common servo signal (PWM).
*A Spektrum DSMX transmitter with telemetry is required for SMART Throttle.
Normal Servo Signal (PWM):
If you plug the Avian ESC into any common RC receiver the ESC will still be compatible with a conventional servo signal for basic operation.

Installation and Wiring
1.Select a location to mount the ESC with good ventilation for cooling. Mount the ESC with double sided tape or hook and loop material if mounting tabs are not included on the case.
2.Connect the three motor wires from the ESC to the motor wires in any order. In the event the motor spins the wrong direction, reverse any two wires.
3.Connect the throttle lead to the throttle channel on your receiver.
4.Secure all wiring so it is protected from damage or being caught by moving parts.
NOTICE: Do not connect a dedicated receiver battery to the receiver if it is connected to the ESC.When the ESC is turned On it will power the
receiver with regulated voltage from the main battery through the throttle connection.The ESC may be damaged if the receiver is also connected to a dedicated receiver battery.
ESC/Radio Calibration
1.Begin with the transmitter powered on at full throttle.
2.Connect a battery to the ESC. The motor will emit a series of three ascending tones.
3.The motor will emit two short tones to indicate the high throttle position has been accepted.
4.Move the throttle stick to the low position within five seconds after the two short tones.
TIP: If more than 5 seconds passes before you lower the throttle, the motor will motor emit another series of tones, indicating the ESC has entered programming mode.
5. The motor will emit a number of tones to indicate the number of detected LiPo cells.
6. The motor will emit one long tone to indicate the calibration is
complete.
7
Stick Programming
Power on your transmitter with the throttle at the full position.
Connect the battery to the ESC.
The motor will emit short two tones, then another series of tones to indicate the first programming parameter.
The ESC will indicate the parameter option with a series of tones.
TIP: If a selection is not made the ESC will return to the beginning of the list and cycle through the options again. TIP: There are twelve programming parameters. See the table below for full details.
To select a programming parameter, move the throttle stick to the bottom position within three seconds.
The motor will emit of series of tones for the selected parameter. See the Parameters Options table for details.
