[. . . ] WARRANTY SERVICE: For warranty work, you MUST CLAIM WARRANTY on PRODUCT SERVICE FORM & include a valid cash register receipt with purchase date and dealer name & phone# on it, or an invoice from previous service. If warranty provisions have been voided, there will be service charges. Always disconnect the battery pack from the speed control when not in use to avoid short circuits and possible fire hazard. If using Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries, NEVER use fewer than 4 or more than 7 cells (1. 2VDC/cell) in the vehicle's main battery pack. If using Li-Po batteries, ONLY use a 2-cell (2S) pack for the vehicle's main battery & be sure the Li-Po Cut-Off programming option is turned ON. The XBR Sport is designed for use with sensor-based Novak Brushless Motors. You may replace with Novak sensored motors down to 8. 5 turns. Reverse battery polarity can damage ESC & void warranty. Disconnect battery immediately if a reverse connection occurs. An external power capacitor is installed on ESC & MUST be used. Failure to use Capacitor will result in higher temperatures & possible thermal shut-down or damage. Always turn on the power of the transmitter first so that you will have control of the vehicle when you turn it on. With the higher performance of brushless systems, undesirable radio system noise may occur when used with lower quality transmitters (like some RTR radios).

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. · XBR Sport ESC, Smart Braking II, Polar Drive Technology, Radio Priority Circuitry, & One-Touch Set-Up are all trademarks of Novak Electronics, Inc. ·ESCs returned without a serial number will not be serviced under warranty· ADDITIONAL NOTES: · Dealers/distributors are not authorized to replace products thought to be defective. · If a hobby dealer returns your product for service, submit a completed PRODUCT SERVICE FORM to the dealer and make sure it is included with product. does not make any internal electronic components (transistors, resistors, etc. ) available for sale. GOOD QUALITY TRANSMITTER SUGGESTED DO NOT BUNDLE POWER & SIGNAL WIRES TOGETHER RF noise in the power wires can adversely effect radio system performance. 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. Novak Electronics, Inc.

However, some very old receivers must have the wiring sequence in the plastic 3-pin connector housing changed. This is important, because receiver & servo electronics may be damaged if the sequence is incorrect.

[. . . ] CONNECT SPEED CONTROL TO BATTERY PACK The XBR Sport does not require an external Schottky diode under most brush motor conditions. Note that an external Schottky will optimize the ESC's braking and motor performance in applications with heavy or repeated braking (lap after lap), or when using lower turn modified motors. · If using an axial lead Schottky diode as shown in the photo above (older Novak style--35V/8A min. ), solder lead CLOSEST to the silver stripe on the Schottky diode's body to the POSITIVE (+) Motor Tab.
