TrakPower MS-1 User Manual

MS-1 ELECTRONIC
SPEED CONTROL
Special Features
CNC Machined Aluminum Case
Gold-plated solder posts
Handles down to 2.5T
Thank you for choosing TrakPower as your
source for brushless electronics. The MS-1 ESC was specifi cally developed for 1/10th competition. The MS-1 ESC features an aluminum CNC machined case which is designed as a heat sink to reduce operating temperatures and eliminate the need for a cooling fan. The switch and receiver lead exit the top of the case to allow the ESC to fi t into the smallest areas, and gold-plated solder posts provide the best option for solder connections. Pre-installed power capacitors ensure power is available for when it is demanded. The MS-1 also features “blinky” mode, a popular race mode for stock class racing.
It is strongly recommended to
completely read this manual before use! Damage resulting from misuse or modification will void your warranty.

Important Precautions

ABC
Disconnect the battery from the ESC immediately if the ESC or battery becomes hot!! Allow
the ESC or battery to cool down before reconnecting.
NEVER use more than the specifi ed voltage on the ESC’s input.
ALWAYS mount the ESC in a position where free air can fl ow across it during operation.
ALWAYS monitor ESC temperatures.
Always turn on the transmitter before connecting the battery to the ESC.
Always disconnect the battery from the ESC when not in use.
Make sure the input battery is fully charged before connecting to the ESC, so the low voltage
cutoff feature can function properly.
Do not attempt to use with brushed motors.
Use heat shrink tubing to insulate any bare wires between the motor battery and ESC, and
from the ESC to the motor, to prevent a short circuit.
Allow the ESC to cool before touching.
Do not run the car near water! Never allow water, moisture or any foreign material onto the
ESC’s PC board.
Do not allow metal/conductive materials to accidentally make contact across all motor/
battery posts.
Never turn on the ESC before plugging it into the receiver and switching on the transmitter.
Keep out of reach of children.
TrakPower is not responsible for incidental damage or personal injury as a result of misuse
of this product.
Installation
Refer to your vehicle’s manual for the best mounting location and position on your chassis. Always mount in a location where it will receive maximum airfl ow over and around the unit. The MS-1 ESC features a CNC machined aluminum case that functions as a heat sink and helps reduce operating temperatures. Once the mounting location has been determined, use the included mounting tape to secure the ESC to the chassis.
Included are fi ve 200mm pieces of 12AWG silicon wire for the motor and battery connections. You will need to supply the battery connector of your choice. It is highly recommended to make one solder connection at a time so that there is no possibility of making an incorrect connection which could result in permanent damage to the ESC and/or motor.
