1. Motor Wiring
There is no polarity on the A/B/C three ESC-to-motor wires, hence, do not worry on how you connect them initially. You may find it necessary to swap two wires if the motor runs in reverse.
And plug the temperature monitoring cable (PVC cable with a ZH-2Y male connector) on the ESC into the temperature monitoring port (a ZH-2Y female connector marked with “TEMP”) at
the bottom of the matching HOBBYWING motor, the Motor Thermal Protection will function.
2. Receiver Wiring
Plug the throttle control cable on the ESC into the throttle (TH) channel on receiver. The throttle control cable will output the voltage of 6V/7.4V to the receiver and steering servo.
Hence, no separate battery can be connected to the receiver. Otherwise, your ESC may be damaged.
3. External CapPack Wiring (Optional)
If the temperature of the capacitor is consistently above 85
℃
when in use, you need to connect an external cappack (stock accessory included in the product box) to Red & Black power
wires (the input end of the ESC). Otherwise, the insufficient capability of the on-board cappack may cause capacitors to swell or even explode. The ESC may be damaged and no longer
work. Please connect an external cappack to your ESC by referring to the wiring diagram (as shown on the right side). The sequence is connecting Red/Positive to Red/Positive,
Black/Negative to Black/Negative.
4. Battery Wiring
Proper polarity is essential. Please ensure positive (+) connects to positive (+), and negative (-) connects to negative (-) when plugging in the battery! When reverse polarity is applied to
your ESC from the battery, it WILL damage your ESC. This WILL NOT be covered under warranty!

ESC Setup
Radio Calibration
1
Begin using your ESC by calibrating with your transmitter. We strongly recommend Hobbywing users to use the “Fail Safe” function on the radio system and set (F/S) to “Output OFF” or
“Neutral Position”. Example of caliberating Neutral range and Endpoint.
Power ON-OFF Warning
2
1) Power ON/OFF:
(Start with the ESC turned off), press the ON/OFF button to turn on the ESC; (start with the ESC turned on) press and hold the ON/OFF button to turn off the ESC.
2) Warning Tones:
Turn on the ESC (that is to turn it on without holding the SET button); the motor will beep the number of LiPo cells you have plugged in. For example, 2 beeps indicate a 2S LiPo, 3 beeps
indicate a 3S LiPo.

Basic Setting
Programmable Items
Parameter Values
(Those "black backgroud and white text" options are the factory default settings)
1. Running Mode
Option 1: Forward with Brake
It has forward and brake functions only and is usually a racing mode.
Option 2: Forward / Reverse with Brake
This mode can be used as for training and it has “Forward/ Reverse with Brake” mode. Hobbywing adopted the “DOUBLE-CLICK” method, that is your vehicle only brakes on the 1st time
you push the throttle trigger forward (brake) (1st push). The motor stops when you quickly release the throttle trigger and then re-push the trigger quickly (2nd push), only then the vehicle
will reverse. The reverse function will not work if your car does not come to a complete stop.The vehicle only reverses after the motor stops. This method is for preventing vehicle from being
accidentally reversed.
2. Lipo Cells
“Auto Calculation” is the default setting. If LiPo batteries are often used with the same cell count, we would strongly recommend setting this item manually to avoid the incorrect
“calculation” (For instance, the ESC may take a not fully charged 3S LiPo as a fully charged 2S LiPo) which may cause the low-voltage cutoff protection to not function ideally.
3. Cutoff Voltage
Sets the voltage at which the ESC lowers or removes power to the motor in order to either keep the battery at a safe minimum voltage (for LiPo batteries). The ESC monitors the battery
voltage all the time, it will immediately reduce the power to 50% and cut off the output 10 seconds later when the voltage goes below the cutoff threshold. The RED LED will flash a short,
single flash that repeats (
☆
,
☆
,
☆
) to indicate the low-voltage cutoff protection is activated. Please set the “Cutoff Voltage” to “Disabled” if you are using NiMH batteries.
Option 1: Disabled
The ESC does not cut the power off due to low voltage. We do not recommend using this option when you use any LiPo battery as you will irreversibly damage the product. You need to
select this option when you are using a NiMH pack.
Option 2: Auto (Low)
Low cutoff voltage, difficulty to get the LVC Protection activated, is applicable to batteries with poor discharge capability.
Option 3: Auto (Intermediate)
Medium cutoff voltage, prone to getting the LVC Protection activated, is applicable to batteries with ordinary discharge capability.
Option 4: Auto (High)
High cutoff voltage, very prone to getting the LVC Protection activated, is applicable to packs with great discharge capability.
Warning: If you set the Cutoff Voltage to Disabled when you use a LiPo pack, then please pay attention to the power change of your vehicle. In general, the battery voltage gets pretty low
when your vehicle is severely losing power, then you should stop using that pack.
4. ESC Thermal Protection
The ESC will automatically cut off the output with the GREEN LED flashes (
☆
,
☆
,
☆
) when the temperature gets up to the value you've previously preset and activates the ESC Thermal
Protection. The output will not resume until the temperature gets down.
5. Motor Thermal Protection
The GREEN LED flashes (
☆☆
,
☆☆
,
☆☆
......) when the motor temperature reaches to the preset value. The output will not resume until the motor temperature gets down.
Note:
this protection works only when the temperature monitoring cable on the ESC is plugged into the temperature monitoring port (marked with “TEMP”) at the bottom of the matching
HOBBYWING motor. It will be void if you don’t plug the cable into the port or set the “Motor Thermal Protection” to “Disabled”.
6. Motor Rotation
Pull the throttle trigger with the motor shaft facing you, the motor spins counter clockwise. When this item is set to CCW; the motor spins clockwise. When it is set to CW. The (A/B/C)
wiring order of motors from different manufacturers may vary, so do the direction of the motor rotations. You can adjust the “Motor Rotation” or swap any two (ESC-to-motor) wires if the
motor runs in reverse.
7. BEC Voltage
:
Option 1
:
6.0V
It’s applicable to ordinary servos. Do not use this option with high voltage servos; otherwise your servos may not function normally due to insufficient voltage.
Option 2
:
7.4V
It’s applicable to high voltage servos. Do not use this option with ordinary servos; otherwise your servos may be burnt due to high voltage.
8. Brake Force
The ESC provides proportional braking function; the braking effect is decided by the position of the throttle trigger. It sets the percentage of available braking power when full brake is
applied. Large amount will shorten the braking time but it may damage your pinion and spur. Please select the most suitable brake amount as per your car condition and your preference.
9. Reverse Force
Different reverse amount will bring different reversing speed. For the safety of your vehicle, we recommend using a low amount.
10. Start Mode / Punch
You can choose the punch from level 1 (very soft) to level 5 (very aggressive) as per the track, tires, grip, conditions. This feature is very useful for preventing tires from wheel-spinning
during the warm-up process. In addition, “level 4” and “level 5” have strict requirement on battery’s discharge capability. It may affect the starting-up if the battery discharges poorly and
cannot provide large current in a short time. If the car stutters or suddenly loses power in the starting-up process, indicates that the battery’s discharge capability is poor, you might need to
reduce the punch or increase the FDR (Final Drive Ratio).
11. Drag Brake
Drag brake is the braking power produced when releasing from full speed to neutral zone. This is to simulate the slight braking effect of a neutral brushed motor while coasting.
(Attention! Drag brake will consume much power, so apply it cautiously.)
ESC Programming
4
The portable LED program card is an optional accessory applicable for field use. Its friendly interface makes the ESC programming easy and quick.
Before the programming, you need to connect your ESC and the program card via a cable with two JR male connectors, and then turn on the ESC, all programmable items will show up a
few seconds later. You can select the item by choosing via “ITEM” & “VALUE” buttons on the program card. Press the “OK” button to save all new settings to your ESC.

Trouble(s)
Solution(s)
Possible Causes
1. No power was supplied to the ESC.
2. The ESC switch was damaged.
1. Check if all ESC & battery connectors have been well soldered or
firmly connected.
2. Replace the broken switch.
The ESC was unable to start the status LED, the motor, and the
cooling fan after it was powered on.
1. The ESC didn't detect any throttle signal.
2. The neutral throttle value stored on your ESC is different from the
value stored on the transmitter.
1. Check if the throttle wire is reversely plugged in or in the wrong
channel and if the transmitter is turned on.
2. Re-calibrate the throttle range after you release the throttle
trigger to the neutral position.
After the ESC was powered on and finished LiPo cells detection
(the GREEN LED flashed N times), and then the RED LED flashed
rapidly.
1. The (ESC-to-motor) wiring order was incorrect.
2. Your chassis is different from popular chassis.
Swap any two (ESC-to-motor) wires.
The vehicle ran backward when you pulled the throttle trigger
towards you.
1. The receiver was influenced by some foreign interference.
2. The ESC entered the battery LVC (Low Voltage Cutoff) protection.
3. The ESC entered the thermal (over-heat) protection.
1. Check all devices and try to find out all possible causes,
and check the transmitter’s battery voltage.
2. The RED LED keeps flashing indicating the LVC protection is
activated, please replace your pack.
3. The GREEN LED keeps flashing indicating the thermal protection
is activated, please let your ESC cool down before using it again.
The motor suddenly stopped or significantly reduced the
output in operation.
1. Some soldering between the motor and the ESC was not good.
2. The ESC was damaged (some MOSFETs were burnt).
1. Check all soldering points, please re-solder if necessary.
2. Contact the distributor for repair or other customer services.
The motor stuttered but couldn’t start.
1. The throttle neutral position on your transmitter was actually in the
braking zone.
2. Set the “Running Mode” improperly. 3. The ESC was damaged.
1. Re-calibrate the throttle neutral position. No LED on the ESC will
come on when the throttle trigger is at the neutral position.
2. Set the “running mode” to “Forward/Reverse with Brake”.
3. Contact the distributor for repair or other customer services.
The vehicle could run forward (and brake), but could not reverse.
1. The neutral position on the transmitter was not stable, so signals
were not stable either.
2. The ESC calibration was not proper.
1. Replace your transmitter
2. Re-calibrate the throttle range or fine tune the neutral position
on the transmitter.
The car ran forward/backward slowly when the throttle trigger
was at the neutral position.
The programming card/box was connected to the ESC via the throttle
control cable (Rx cable).
It is wrong to use the Rx cable to connect programming card/box.
The programming port of this ESC is also the fan port, so please
connect the ESC and programming card/box by plugging the
programming cable into the fan port.
1. The LCD program box kept displaying “CONNECTING ESC”
after you connected it to your ESC.
2. The LED program card kept display 3 short lines (- - -) after
you connected it to your ESC.
1. The ESC throttle cable wasn’t plugged in the correct channel on the
receiver.
2. The ESC throttle cable was reversely plugged in.
1. Plug the throttle cable into the throttle (TH) channel on your
receiver.
2. Plug in the throttle cable properly by referring to relevant mark
shown on your receiver.
When pressing the SET button to set the throttle neutral position,
the GREEN LED didn’t flash and no beep was emitted, or you
were unable to set the full throttle endpoint and the full brake
endpoint after the neutral position was accepted.
The battery voltage was beyond the normal operating voltage range of
the ESC.
Check the battery voltage.
The ESC was unable to start the motor after it was powered on,
but the motor emitted a short, double beep (BB, BB, BB...)
that repeats with GREEN LED on the ESC blinked. (The interval
between two beeps was 1 second.)
