ESC PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS

I. Throttle Calibration:

1. Remove the propeller.

2. If using a computer radio, set end points for throttle channel to 100% and trims and sub trim to 0.

3. Turn on the transmitter. Advance throttle stick.

4. Connect battery to ESC. Hear three tones… “

1 2 3” followed by two short beeps…”beep beep.”

5. Lower throttle stick all the way. Hear short beeps (3 beeps for 3S or 4 beeps for 4S), followed by one longer beep.

6. Throttle is calibrated. Disconnect battery.

II. Programming Instructions:

The ESC is factory-set for the Hadron—other than possibly having to calibrate the throttle, there is nothing that needs to be done

with the ESC. However, should you desire to re-program the ESC to suit different requirements, following are full programming

instructions:

ESC SPECIFICATIONS

Constant Current 40A

Burst current (<10 seconds) 55A

BEC mode Switching

BEC output 5V, 3A (5 servos)

Weight 43g

Battery cell count 2S – 4S LiPo, 5 – 12 cell NiMH

Dimensions 6mm x 25mm x12mm

FACTORY DEFAULT SETTINGS

Motor brake OFF

Battery type LiPo

LVC mode (low-voltage cutoff) Soft cut-off

Auto-detect* low-voltage cutoff 3.15 V/cell

Timing Low (3.75°)

Start mode Normal (0.3 seconds)

*Automatically detects 4-cell or 3-cell LiPo.

The brake strength, battery type, cutoff mode, cutoff voltage, start mode and timing are all programmable. Follow the programming

instructions to change any of these settings from the factory-set defaults.

1. ACCESS PROGRAMMING MENU:

A. Turn on the transmitter. Advance throttle stick all the way.

B. Connect the battery to the ESC.

Hear three tones (“ 1 2 3”) followed by:

Two short beeps (“beep beep”) followed by:

5-second pause followed by:

Five tones (“ 1 2 3 4 5”)

The ESC is now in the Programming Menu

and will loop through a sequence of beeps, each

representing a function in the menu that can be

reprogrammed. (You don’t have to do anything

at this time; you can simply listen to the beeps

identifying which function correlates to which

sequence of beeps.)

PROGRAMMING MENU FUNCTION

1 One short beep

Two short beeps

Two long beeps

One long beep, two short beeps

One long beep, one short beep

One long beep

Four short beeps

Three short beeps

Brake

Battery type

Exit programming

Set the ESC to default

Timing

Cutoff Voltage

Cutoff mode

“beep”

“beep beep”

“beeeep beeeep”

“beeeep beep beep”

“beeeep beep”

“beeeep”

“beep beep beep beep”

* Determines how the motor stops

when low-voltage is detected:

Soft = motor will quit gradually,

Hard = motor cull cut immediately.

** Determines how the motor starts.

Normal is recommended for

airplane (fixed-wing). Soft or

super-soft is for helicopters.
