set-up guide

proper gearing

Motor & ESC temperatures should NEVER exceed

160°F MAX at any time during operation!

If your application or vehicle set-up produces

excessive heating of either the speed control

or the motor, check for free operation of the

vehicle’s drive train and change the gearing if

needed to avoid overheating!

Because of the potential of damage from overheating that can cause ESC or

motor failure, you should start with small pinion sizes and check the

speed control and motor operating temperatures at during the initial runs

after installation. This is the best way to avoid excessive heating.

If ESC & motor temperatures remain low & stable, you can slowly increase

the pinion size while again monitoring the temperatures to determine the

safe gearing for your vehicle, motor, and climate/track conditions. Because

these variables can change or be modiﬁed, you should continually monitor

ESC & motor temperatures to protect your electronics from damage.

trouble-shooting guide

Steering Channel Works But Motor Will Not Run

• Possible receiver damage––Check operation with a different receiver.

• Possible internal damage––Refer to ‘SERVICE PROCEDURES’ section.

• Check motor or motor connections.

• Check ESC is plugged into receiver’s throttle channel. Check signal harness

wire sequence.

Receiver Glitches/Throttle Stutters During Acceleration

• Receiver or antenna too close to ESC, power wires, battery, or motor.

• Bad motor connections––Check wiring & connections.

• Low voltage to receiver––Try Novak Glitch Buster (#5626) on receiver to

retain power during surges of high current draw.

• PowerCap damaged/missing––Replace PowerCap/Trans-Cap Module.

• Battery pack damaged or weak––Try a different battery pack.

• Excessive current to motor—Use a milder motor or a smaller pinion gear.

• Untidy wires or signal and power wires are bundled together. Input harness,

servo harness, and power wires should be bundled separately. Power wires

should be as short as possible.

Motor and Steering Servo Do Not Work

• Check wires, receiver signal harness wiring & color sequence, radio system,

crystals, battery/motor connectors, & battery pack.

• Possible receiver damage––Check operation with a different receiver.

• Possible internal damage––Refer to Service Procedures.

Motor Runs Backward

• Reverse motor wiring––Swap RED & Black motor wire connections at motor.

• Improper One-Touch set up––Refer to ‘ONE-TOUCH PROGRAMMING’.

Speed Control Runs Excessively Hot

• Gear ratio too low––Increase gear ratio/Reduce pinion size.

• Motor is damaged––Try a different motor.

Model Runs Slowly/Slow Acceleration

• Gear ratio too high––Reduce gear ratio/Increase pinion.

• Bad battery or connectors––Check & replace if needed.

• Incorrect transmitter/ESC adjustment––Refer to

‘TRANSMITTER ADJUSTMENTS’

•

PowerCap damaged/missing––Replace PowerCap or Power Trans-Cap Module.

ESC Is Melted Or Burnt/ESC Runs With Switch Off

• Internal damage––Refer to Service Procedures.

No Power to the BEC

• Check power wire connections to your battery, ESC and BEC unit.

• Check that BEC input harness is plugged into receiver & the ESC’s red wire

is removed from the input harness.

• Be sure that the BEC unit switch is turned ON.

error/LED codes

• Red & Green status LEDs on solid––Check input signal harness connections.

Check input signal harness wiring sequence––Refer to STEP 3.

•

Blue & Red status LEDs blinking. Possible thermal shut-down––Check gear

ratio & free operation of drive train for possible overloading/ESC is being

severely over-loaded––allow system to cool & return throttle to neutral to

regain motor control. LEDs will continue to blink until system is cooled down.

• Red & Yellow status LEDs toggling. LiPo battery has reached critical safety

voltage & LiPo Cut-Off circuitry has cut-off throttle output. Recharge battery.

This speed control features Novak’s Smart-Stop Auto-Detect Voltage Cut-Off

Circuitry built-in, and when used properly will allow you to safely use LiPo

batteries, without letting the cells drop below their critical safety voltage

during operation that results in premature battery failure.

The default ESC setting is that the Voltage Cut-Off is turned ON and is set to

LiPo. If using NiMH cells, you need to switch the Voltage Cut-Off feature OFF.

Yellow status LED will remain ON at all times during operation

to indicate that the LiPo Voltage Cut-Off Circuity is turned ON.

Re-charge battery after Smart-Stop circuitry shuts off throttle

Even though the pack’s voltage will rise (after a short resting period) to a level

high enough to run motor again, this is not good for LiPo batteries.

Reaching critical safety voltage too many times can damage the cells.

Note: Whenever the speed control’s One-Touch Programming is

performed, this setting will revert to the LiPo default setting.

DO NOT USE LiPo BATTERIES WITH THE

VOLTAGE CUT-OFF CIRCUITRY TURNED OFF

With the Voltage Cut-Off turned ON & using NiCd/NiMH cells, the

ESC’s throttle output will shut off very early into the run--Change the

Cut-Off Circuitry mode to OFF to use these batteries.

voltage cut-off circuitry

temperature monitoring

This speed control has a built-in diagnostic temperature monitoring feature

that lets you quickly and easily check the ESC’s operating temperature at any

time with a click of the ESC’s push-button.

While connected to a battery and powered ON, simply tap the ESC’s SET

button and one of the on-board LED lights will ﬂash 4 times to indicate the

operating temperature of the speed control:

BLUE ﬂashing LED = normal operating temp--136-147°F (58-64°C).

YELLOW ﬂashing LED = medium operating temp--148-167°F (65-75°C).

GREEN ﬂashing LED = hot operating temp--168-194°F (76-90°C).

RED ﬂashing LED = hottest operating temp--195-215°F (91-102°C).

You are now pushing the ESC extremely hard and should be very

careful to avoid overheating and possible thermal shut-down.

All LEDs ﬂashing = DANGEROUS operating temp--216-239°F (103-115°C).

Your ESC is now about to thermally shut-down.

Reduce the pinion size/check drive train to avoid ESC

overheating that could result in potential damage.
