[. . . ] D O N O T hold the vehicle in the air and run it up to full throttle. Tire failures at speed can cause serious injury!Make sure your tires are securely glued to the rims and check them often!Always disconnect the battery from the ESC when you are finished using your vehicle. [. . . ] Keep holding full throttle on the transmitter. If all your connections are correct, you will hear one multi-toned initialization “ring” from the motor (all tones are played by the ESC vibrating the motor). STEP 4 : After a second or two, the green LED on the ESC will blink rapidly and the motor will “ring” 4 times rapidly in a row (accepting the full throttle endpoint). After the green LED flashes and tones, the ESC will blink the red LED. At this point the full throttle endpoint has been set within the ESC and now it’s looking for the full brake endpoint (red LED blinking). STEP 5 : Move the throttle trigger to the full brake position and hold full brake. After a few seconds, the ESC will flash the red LED and ring 4 times rapidly (accepting full brake endpoint). STEP 6 : After accepting the full brake endpoint the ESC will then blink the yellow LED. Now relax the trigger to the neutral position. The ESC will now ring 4 times and flash the yellow LED rapidly to accept the neutral position. 15 After accepting the neutral position, the ESC will ring twice and flash ALL the LEDs. Remove your pinion gear before calibration and manual programming as a safety precaution!STEP 1 : Start with the transmitter ON and the ESC switched OFF and not connected to the battery. Hold full throttle on the transmitter and turn the ESC switch ON. After a few seconds you will get the four rings in a row signaling full throttle calibration. After a few more seconds, you will hear another four rings in a row. After the second group of four rings, relax the throttle to neutral. If you have successfully entered programming mode, the ESC will beep twice, pause, and repeat the two beeps. STEP 3 : The programming sequence is always presented in sequential order and always starts with the first setting (Reverse Lockout) within the first section (Reverse Type). Reverse Amount 23 Sets how much power will be applied in the reverse direction, if reverse is enabled. Setting 1 : 25% Power Allows only 25% power in reverse. Setting 2 : 50% Power (Default) Allows only 50% power in reverse. [. . . ] If the motor spins the wrong way with forward throttle, swap any two of the wires to get the correct direction. 34 Setting 2 : Brushed Reversing (See Figure 2: Reversing Brushed Motor Setup on page 10) Uses the Red and Black ESC motor wires to connect to the (+) and (-) side of the brushed motor. If the motor spins in the wrong direction with forward throttle, reverse the motor wires for correct motor direction. Setting 3 : Brushed High Power (See Figure 3: High Power Brushed Motor Setup on page 11) Connect all three of the ESC motor wires to the negative (-) side of the motor. [. . . ]
