Selecting Race Mode (Profile #2: 100% Forward, 100% Brakes,ġ. The LED will blink and then turn solid green (Low-Voltage Detection ACTIVE) or red (Low-Voltage Detection DISABLED). When the LED blinks red once, release the EZ-Set button.Ĥ. Green, then solid red and then begins blinkingģ. The EZ-Set button until the LED turns solid Selecting Sport Mode (Profile #1: 100% Forward, 100%ġ. Profile #3 (Training Mode): 50% Forward, 100% Brakes, 50% Reverse Profile #2 (Race Mode): 100% Forward, 100% Brakes, No Reverse Profile #1 (Sport Mode): 100% Forward, 100% Brakes, 100% Reverse The speed control shouldīe connected to the receiver and battery, and the transmitter should be adjusted as described previously. To disable reverse (Profile #2) or to allow 50% forward andĥ0% reverse (Profile #3), follow the steps below. The speed control is factory set to Profile #1 (100% forward, brakes,Īnd reverse). Also, a "falling" musical tone will be emitted from the motor on brushless models. The LED will turn off and then light red. Make sure the LED on the speed control is on and green.
To disable Low-Voltage Detection (NiMH setting):ġ. "rising" musical tone will be emitted from the motor on brushless equippedģ. The LED will turn off and then light green. Press and hold the EZ-Set button for ten seconds. Make sure the LED on the speed control is on and red.Ģ. To activate Low-Voltage Detection (LiPo setting):ġ. If the LED is solid green, then Low-Voltage Detection is LED is solid red, then the Low-Voltage Detection is DISABLED (not safe to use LiPo batteries). Press and release the EZ-Set button to turn the speed control on. Connect a fully charged battery pack to the speed control.ģ. Turn on the transmitter (with the throttle at neutral).Ģ.
Verify that Low-Voltage Detection is DISABLED:ġ. Use LiPo batteries while Low-Voltage Detection is disabled. Be certain to activate Low- Voltage Detection if you install LiPo batteries in your model. On, indicating Low Voltage Detection is disabled. The speed control's LED will glow red when it is turned If your model came with a NiMH battery, the electronic speed control's Low Voltage Detection has been disabled for best performance with this battery. The speed control will stay in this mode until a fully charged battery is connected. The LED on the speed control will slowly blink red, indicating a low voltage shutdown. When the battery voltage attempts to fall below the minimum threshold, the speed control will shut down all motor output. When the battery voltage begins to reach the minimum recommended discharge voltage threshold for LiPo battery packs, the speed control will limit the power output to 50% throttle. The Low-Voltage Detection circuitry constantly monitors the battery voltage. Traxxas electronic speed controls are equipped with built-in Low-Voltage Detection. Indicating the ESC is on and at neutral (D). The LED will then shine green or red (depending on low-voltage detection setting) When the LED blinks GREEN ONCE, programming Trigger to the full reverse and hold it there (C).Ħ. When the LED blinks RED TWICE, push the throttle When the LED blinks RED ONCE, pull the throttle trigger to the full throttle position and hold itĥ. Turn on the transmitter (with the throttle at neutral).ģ. Connect a fully charged battery pack to the ESC.Ģ. Lost during programming or receive unexpected results, simply unplug theīattery, wait a few seconds, plug the battery back in, and start over.ġ. Read through all of the programming steps before you begin.
Need to go through these programming steps.ĮSC Setup Programming (Calibrating your ESC and Vehicle stops responding to throttle input, if you would like to change to aĭifferent mode, or if you switch from NiMH batteries to LiPo batteries you will May require periodic programming to maintain optimal performance. These programming steps are the same for Traxxas speed controls.
