DISCONNECT BATTERIES WHEN NOT IN USE Always disconnect the battery pack from the speed control when not in use to avoid short circuits and possible fire hazard. Never use fewer than 4 or more than 7 cells (4. 8-8. 4VDC, 1. 2VDC/cell) in the vehicle's main battery pack(s). The Super Sport Plus ESC is specially designed for use with sensorbased Novak SS-Series Brushless Motors Only!You may replace motor with Novak sensored motor rated up to 225W (ESC's rating). At the time of printing, there are no other brushless motor's available that work with the Super Sport Plus­­check our website for further updates & compatibilities. Reverse battery polarity can damage ESC & void warranty. Disconnect battery immediately if a reverse connection occurs. An external power capacitor is installed and MUST be used with your ESC. Failure to use Power Capacitor will result in higher ESC operating temperatures & possible thermal shut-down. Always turn on the power of the transmitter first so that you will have control of the vehicle when you turn it on. Always insulate exposed wiring with heat shrink tubing or electrical tape to prevent short circuits, which can damage ESC. Exposure to CA glue or its fumes can cause damage to internal components of the speed control and result in premature failure. P1 INPUT SIGNAL HARNESS [Novak kits #5315 & 5320] User-replaceable input signal harness is available in both short and long lengths. 4. 5" harness in Novak kit#5315, and 9. 0" harness in Novak kit #5320. 4 TO 7 CELLS ONLY SS-SERIES MOTOR END BELL & BEARING SET After extensive use, the ball bearings in the end bells of your brushless motor may need to be replaced. Replacement front end bell with bearing factoryinstalled & rear bearing are available in Novak kit #5905. NOVAK BRUSHLESS MOTORS ONLY sensor harness wiring Should any of the 26G Teflon wires pull out of the connector on the end of the motor's sensor harness, re-insert them in the appropriate slot in the connector as shown below. There is a small plastic tab that grabs a small raised barb on the back of the metal socket crimped onto the Teflon wire's end. The plastic tab should be checked to make sure it has not deformed excessively before inserting the metal socket into the plastic connector housing with the barb toward to plastic tabs. black red blue green product warranty The Super Sport Plus Brushless ESC is guaranteed to be free from defects in materials or workmanship for a period of 120 days from the original date of purchase (verified by dated, itemized sales receipt). does not make any internal electronic components (transistors, resistors, etc. ) available for sale.

MOTOR CAPACITORS Electric brush-type motors generate RF noise that causes interference. The included 0. 1µF (50V) non-polarized, ceramic capacitors must be used on all motors to reduce motor noise & prevent ESC damage. Note: Some motors come with built-in capacitors. If your motor only has 2 capacitors, you need to install a capacitor between the positive & negative motor tabs­­If you experience radio interference with built-in capacitors only, install external ones. The Super Sport Plus has the industry-standard receiver input connector on a user-replaceable input harness & works with all major radio brand's new receivers. However, some very old receivers must have the wiring sequence in the plastic 3-pin connector housing changed. [. . . ] Tin the exposed section of wire with solder. Solder the exposed section of the ESC's power wire to battery pack POSITIVE (+) or the POSITIVE (+) motor tab. Strip & tin the end of the ESC's RED power wire (after the first connection), and solder it to the final component--either battery pack positive (+) or the positive (+) motor tab. 4.
