3. ESC’s indicating LEDs:

* When the ESC is connected to the battery and turned on, the ESC can automatically identify the

motor type (Sensored/Sensorless) via the indicator LED.

* If the ESC is in Sensored mode, remove the sensor wire and the ESC will automatically change

to Sensorless mode.

4. Wiring Diagram:

4.1 Connect the ESC, motor, receiver, battery and servo according to the diagram below.

Positive “+” and Negative “-” wires on the ESC are connected to the respective positive and

negative terminals on the battery pack. Motor wires A, B and C are to be connected to

respective terminals on the motor. The “SET” button is used for programming the ESC. The

“Fan” connector is used to supply the cooling fan.

The receiver cable of the ESC (black color, non-crossover wire) is connected to the throttle channel of

the receiver (Usually CH2). Face direction same as this photo (Golden Metal face direction)

NOTE:

The Capacitor MUST be connected to the Positive (+) and Negative (-) terminals of the ESC. DAMAGE

WILL OCCUR IF THE CAPACITOR IS NOT CONNECTED!

Picture A: Wiring with a brushless motor

4.2 Brushless Motor Wiring

Connecting to a sensored brushless motor

When using a sensored motor, it is necessary to connect the sensor cable to the “SENSOR”

socket on the ESC and the sensor port on the motor. The ESC can automatically identify the

motor type (sensored or sensorless) by detecting the signal coming from the SENSOR socket.

WARNING! When using a sensored brushless motor, the A, B, C wires of the ESC MUST

connect with the motor wire A, B, C respectively. Do not change the wire sequence!

The motor sensor cable must be a non-crossover wire.

Connecting to a sensorless brushless motor

When using a brushless motor without a Hall Sensor, the #A, #B, #C wires of the ESC can be

connected with the motor wires in any order. If the motor runs backwards, swap any two of

the motor wire connections.

5. On / Off the ESC

ON: Connect ESC to receiver, turn on transmitter and then press set up button to turn on the

ESC.

OFF: Hold the setup button for 2 seconds and wait for Red flashing LED. When the Red LED is

done flashing, release the setup button and the ESC will shut off.

6. Throttle Range Setting/Calibration

In order to the ESC to recognize the transmitter throttle range, the ESC must be calibrated it. The

ESC must be calibrated when setting up a new ESC, using a new transmitter, or change the ATV or

EPA settings of the radio. The ESC must be calibrated after each firmware update or the ESC will not

work properly.

There are 3 points that need to be set, “full throttle”, “full brake” and the neutral point.

The following pictures show how to set the throttle range with a

FutabaTM transmitter.

7. The LED Status in Normal Running

In normal use, if the throttle is at the neutral setting and the sensor cable is connected, the red

LED and the orange LED will be lit.

The red LED lights up and will flash when the ESC senses a low input voltage.

The orange LED lights up and will flash when the ESC overheating (over 95℃/ 203℉).

Alert signal

7.1 Abnormal input voltage alert tone:

The ESC checks the input voltage when powered on. If it is out of the normal range, the red

LED will begin flashing.

A) Ensure the ESC is

switched off. Turn on

the transmitter.

B) Set the direction of

throttle channel

to”REV” (ONLY for

Futaba Radios), set

the “EPA/ATV”value

of throttle channel to

“100%”.

C) Use a pen or

screwdriver to press

and hold the “Setup”

button on the ESC.

Release the “Setup”

button when the red

LED begins to flash.

D) Set the 3 points

according to the steps

shown in the picture to

the left

a) Neutral point

b) Full throttle

c) Full brake

E) When the calibration

process is completed,

The ESC will

automatically turn off.

(Please refer to the figures

to the left)

8. Protection Function

8.1 Low voltage cut-off protection:

8.1.1 If the lithium battery pack’s voltage is lower than the voltage threshold for 2 seconds,

the ESC will cut power output. Please note that the ESC cannot be restarted if the voltage of

each lithium cell is lower than 3.5V. Users can disable cutoff voltage protection function for

competitive racing.

8.1.2 For NiMh/NiCd battery packs, if the voltage of the NiMh/NiCd battery pack is higher

than 12V, it will be recognized as a 4 cell lithium battery pack. If it is higher than 9.0V, but

lower than 12V, it will be recognized as a 3 cell lithium battery pack. If it is lower than 9.0V, it

will be recognized as a 2 cell lithium battery pack. For example, a NiMh battery pack

measuring 8.0V and the voltage threshold is set to 2.6V/Cell will be recognized as a 2 cell

lithium battery pack. The low voltage cut-off for this NiMh battery pack will be 2.6V x

2=5.2V.

8.2 Over-heat protection: When the temperature of the ESC is over 95℃/ 203℉for 5 seconds,

the ESC will cut power output. Users can disable over-heat protection function for

competitive racing.

8.3 Throttle signal loss protection: The ESC will cut power output if the throttle signal is lost for

0.5 second.

9. Optional Upgrade Accessories

Speed Passion provides the following accessories to upgrade the Reventon ESC:

Upper side Lower side

9.1 Heat sink fan (6V): The 6V fan is necessary when using battery packs is more than 6 cell

NiMh/NiCd or 2s Lipo. It is mounted to the heat sink of the ESC. It helps to cool the ESC with

downward airflow. The picture on the top side shows the installation.

WARNING! Please note, the fan included with the ESC can ONLY work with a 2 cell lithium

battery pack or 4-6 cell NiMh / NiCd battery pack. Do not operate at higher voltages,

otherwise it will be destroyed.

Please check the label of the fan to confirm its working voltage before using it.

9.2 Low resistance, High capacity filtering capacitors.

9.3 Smart LCD Program Card.

10. Trouble Shooting

Always start troubleshooting by resetting the ESC to the throttle range of the transmitter.

Calibration will most likely solve the issue. (Throttle range calibration above)

Trouble

Possible Reason

Solution

After the ESC is powered on, the

motor does not work

Connections between battery

pack and ESC are not correct

-Check power connections

-Replace connectors

Throttle signal is abnormal

-Check transmitter and receiver

-Check wire of throttle channel

Motor runs in the opposite direction

Wire connections between ESC

and motor need to be changed

-Swap any two wire

connections between ESC and

motor.(Attention: This method

only applies to sensorless

motors)

Motor suddenly stops running while

running regularly

Throttle signal is lost

-Check transmitter and receiver

-Check throttle channel polarity

-Recalibrate the ESC to

transmitter

Motor suddenly stops running or

speed is lower than normal while in

working state and Red LED is

blinking

ESC has entered low voltage

protection mode

-Replace battery pack

Motor suddenly stops running or

speed is lower than normal while in

working state and Orange LED is

blinking

ESC has entered over-heat

protection mode

-Install a fan for cooling down

-Turn off over-heat protection

(Attention: over-heat will

damage ESC)

Motor suddenly stops running or

speed is lower than normal while in

working state and Orange LED and

Red LED is blinking

Sensor wire disconnected

-Ensure the sensor wire is

connected and sensor wire is

not damaged or bad contact.

Random stop or restart or irregular

working state

Some connections are not

reliable

-Check all connections: battery

pack connections, throttle

signal wire, motor connections,

and motor sensor cable, etc.

-Reset ESC throttle range to

transmitter

There is strong Electro - Magnetic

interference field

-Reset ESC to resume normal

operation. If this function does

not resume, user may need to

move to another area to

operate the car.
