01 Warnings
◆
Read through the manuals of all power devices and aircraft and ensure the power configuration is rational before using this unit.
◆
Ensure all wires and connections are well insulated before connecting the ESC to related devices, as short circuit will damage your ESC . Ensure all
devices are well connected, in order to prevent poor connections that may cause your aircraft to lose control or other unpredictable issues like damage
to the device. If necessary, please use a soldering iron with enough power to solder all input/output wires and connectors.
◆
Never get the motor locked up during high-speed rotation, otherwise the ESC may get destroyed and may also get your motor damaged. (Note: move
the throttle stick to the bottom position or disconnect the battery immediately if the motor really gets locked up.)
◆
Never use this unit in the extremely hot weather or continue to use it when it gets really hot. Because high temperature will activate the ESC thermal
protection or even damage your ESC.
◆
Always disconnect and remove batteries after use, as the ESC will continue to consume current if it`s still connected to batteries. Long-time contact
will cause batteries to completely discharge and result in damage to batteries or/and ESC. This will not be covered under warranty.
02 Features
ESC which features a high performance 32-bit ARM M0 microprocessor (with a running frequency of up to 96MHz) is compatible with various
brushless motors.
DEO (Driving Efficiency Optimization) Technology greatly improves throttle response & driving efficiency and reduces ESC temperature.
Separate programming cable for connecting ESC to a LED program box and allows users to program the ESC anytime, anywhere. (For detailed info,
please refer to the user manual of HOBBYWING LED program box.)
Normal/Reverse brake modes (esp. reverse brake mode) can effectively shorten the landing distance for the aircraft.
Multiple protection features like start-up, ESC thermal, capacitor thermal, over-current, over-load, abnormal input voltage and throttle signal loss
effectively prolong the service life of the ESC.

04 User Guide
Attention!
The default throttle range of this ESC is from 1100µs to 1940µs (Futaba’s standard); users need to calibrate the throttle range when they start to
use a new FLYFUN brushless ESC or another transmitter.
I. Connections
Throttle Signal Cable (White/Red/Black Tri-color Cable):
plug it into the TH channel on the receiver or flight controller. The White wire is for
transmitting throttle signals, the Red & Black wires are BEC output wires.
Reverse Brake Signal Wire (Yellow Wire):
it must be plugged into any vacant channel on the receiver (when using the Reverse Brake mode) to control
the ON/OFF of the Reverse Brake function.
Programming Cable (Yellow Cable):
connect it to a LED program box if users want to program the ESC.

05 ESC Programming
I. Program your ESC with a LED Program Box
Wiring
:
a). Plug the programming cable (on your ESC) into the programming port on the LED program box.
Note
：
Need plug the throttle signal cable into the power port on the LED program box and the programming wire ( yellow wire ) into the programming port
on the LED program box.
b). (With a battery connected to your ESC), after connected a LED program box to the ESC, you need to disconnect the battery first and then reconnect it to
the ESC to enter the programming mode, check and set parameters.
The portable program box is an optional accessory applicable for field use. Its friendly interface makes the ESC programming easy and quick. Connect a
battery to your ESC after connecting a LED program box to the ESC, all programmable items will show up a few seconds later. You can select the item you
want to program and the setting you want to choose via “ITEM” & “VALUE” buttons on the program box, and then press the “OK” button to save all new
settings to your ESC.
Attention!
You need to power your ESC off and then on after adjusting parameters. Otherwise, new parameters won’t take effect.
II. Program your ESC with the Transmitter
It consists of 4 steps: Enter the programming → Select parameter items → Select parameter values → Exit the programming

II. Select Parameter Items
After entering the programming, you’ll hear the following 12 kinds of
beeps circularly. Move the throttle stick to the bottom position within 3
seconds after you hear some kind of beeps, you’ll enter the
corresponding parameter item.
