ESC
RCR-2CENR RADIO SYSTEM
OPERATION:
Step 1: Connect all components (as shown in wiring diagram) and recheck all connections before moving to the next step.
Step 2: Set the Throttle Range. This ESC can automatically recognize the neutral position of the transmitter, but you need
to follow the following steps.
1. Turn on the transmitter and move the throttle trigger to the neutral position.
2. With the ESC powered off, connect the motor, battery and other devices.
3. Turn on the ESC and wait at least 3 seconds. The ESC will automatically detect neutral.
Note: The ESC will beep according to the battery type and cell count used. If the ESC is set to
use a LIPO battery, the ESC will sound 2 short beeps if it detects a 2S LIPO, and 3 short
beeps if it detects a 3S LIPO. If the ESC is set to use a NiMH battery, it will beep one short
beep followed by one long beep to indicate self detection is over and the ESC is ready to use.
ATTENTION!
1. After turning on the ESC, you must wait (at least 3 seconds) until the self detection completes. Otherwise, it may not
function properly.
2. After turning on the ESC, if there is no power output and the Red LED flashes rapidly, it means the throttle of the
transmitter is not in the neutral position. If this happens, be sure the "Throttle Trim" on the transmitter is at the "0"
position, fine tune the throttle neutral position until the Red LED stops flashing.
3. To avoid any possible injury, always turn on the transmitter first and the ESC last, and then turn off the ESC first and
the transmitter last. Be sure the transmitter is on anytime the vehicle is on.
Step 3: The Red LED will emit certain flash sequences while running the vehicle. If everything is hooked up correctly and
the vehicle is running normal, the ESC LED should look like this.
1. The Red LED will turn off when the throttle trigger is in the throttle neutral zone.
2. The Red LED flashes rapidly when the vehicle is lightly throttled forward and turns solid Red when full throttle is used.
3. The Red LED flashes rapidly when the vehicle is lightly throttled rearward and turns solid Red when full reverse or
brake is used.
Note: swap the two wires from motor to ESC if you find the motor runs in reverse, but check the Throttle Reverse switch
on the transmitter first.
