Speed Controller ESC USER MANUAL OF WP SC8 RTR ESC Thanks for purchasing our Electronic Speed Controller ESC The power system for RC model can be very dangerous so please read this manual carefully In that we have no control over the correct use installation application or maintenance of our products no liability shall be assumed nor accepted for any damages losses or costs resulting from the use of the product Any claims arising from the operating failure of malfunctioning etc will be denied We assume no liability for personal injury consequential damages resulting from our product or our workmanship FEATURES Completely water proof and dust proof The ESC works properly even under water Please remove the cooling fan when running car in water and after running please make the ESC clean and then dry it to avoid the oxidation of copper connectors Excellent start up acceleration and linearity features suitable for truggy especially short course trucks and buggy The built in switching mode BEC of WP SC8 RTR has a powerful output to supply all electronic equipments There is a mounting stand for installing the ESC on chassis easily and firmly Proportional ABS brake function with 5 steps of maximum brake force adjustment 8 steps of drag brake force adjustment Also compatible with the mechanical disc brake system Multiple protection features Low voltage cut off protection Over heat protection Throttle si
3. not completely stopped so the backward action is NOT happened immediately When the throttle stick is moved to the backward zone again The 2nd click if the mo tor speed is slowed down to zero i e stopped the backward action will happen The Double Click method can prevent mistakenly reversing action when the brake function is frequently used in steering By the way in the process of braking or reversing if the throttle stick is moved to forward zone the motor will run forward at once Forward Reverse mode uses Single click to make the car go backward When you move the throttle stick from forward zone to backward zone the car will go backward immediately This mode is usually used for the Rock Crawler 1 2 Drag Brake Force Set the amount of drag brake applied at neutral throttle to simulate the slight braking effect of a neu tral brushed motor while coasting 1 3 Low Voltage Cut Off The function prevents the lithium battery pack from over discharging The ESC detects the battery s voltage at any time if the voltage is lower than the threshold for 2 seconds the output power will be cut off and the red LED flashes in such a way O 0 O O O o 1 4 Start Mode Also called Punch Select from Level 1 to Level 9 as your like Level1 has a very soft start effect while level9 has a very aggressive start effect From Level 1 to Level 9 the start force is increasing Please

Note2 5h M7 is n we rO hk i nE Os Ses SET Hold the SET button Tum en the satih as the red LED starts to bink C Set the 3 points according to the steps shown in the pictures on the right side 1 The neutral point Move the throttle stick at the neutral point and then click the SET key the green LED flashes 1 time 2 The end point of forward direction Move the throttle stick at the end point of forward direction and then click the SET key the green LED flashes 2 times 3 The end point of backward direction Move the throttle stick at the end point of backward direction and then click the SET key the green LED flashes 3 times D Throttle range is calibrated motor can be started after 3 seconds 3 Check LED Status In Normal Running Note2 If you don t release the SET key as soon as the red LED begins to flash the ESC will enter the program mode in such a case please switch off the ESC and re calibrate the throttle range again from step A to step D Release the SET bution as soon gt Normally if the throttle stick is located in the neutral range neither the red LED nor the green LED lights gt The red LED lights when the caris forward or backward and it will flash quickly when the car is braking gt The green LED lights when the throttle stick is moved to the top point of the forward zone the ESC begins to brake the motor the motor speeds down but it is still running
5. The wire connections between ESC and the motor are not correct The throttle signal is lost The ESC has entered the Low Voltage Protection Mode or Over heat Protection Mode 1 The battery has a bad discharge performance 2 Gear ratio is too aggressive 3 The Start Mode Punch of the ESC is too aggressive Over current protection motor demagnetization or motor is over load Mistakenly uses the Rx wire to connect to the program card box Check the power connections Replace the connectors Check the voltage of the battery pack Plug the control wire into the throttle channel of the receiver correctly Swap any two wire connections between the ESC and the motor Check the transmitter and the receiver Check the signal wire from the throttle channel of your receiver Red LED flashing means Low Voltage Green LED flashing means Over heat 1 Use a better battery 2 Use lower KV motor or softer gear ratio 3 Set the Start Mode Punch to a softer value 1 Reduce the load Use softer gear ratio or reduce the input voltage 2 Change the motor Connect the program card box to the special programming port of the ESC don t use the Rx wire Dragon RC electronics manual 1 8 82355 1

8. note that if you choose Level T to Level 9 mode you must use good quality battery with powerful discharge ability otherwise these modes cannot get the burst start effect as you want If the motor cannot run smoothly that means the motor is trembling it may caused by the weak discharge ability of the battery please choose a better one ora softer gear ratio 1 5 Maximum Brake Force The ESC provides proportional brake function The brake force is related to the position of the throttle stick Maximum brake force refers to the force when the throttle stick is located at the end point of the backward zone A very large brake force can shorten the brake time but it may da mage the gears The Disable option inhibits the inherent brake function of the speed controller When this option is selected the brake function is realized by a traditional mechanical disc brake system driven by a servo 2 Reset All Items To Default Values At any time when the throttle is located in neutral zone except in the throttle calibration or parameters program process hold the SET key for over 3 seconds the red LED and green LED will flash at the same time which means each programmable item has be reset to its default value PROGRAMMABLE ITEMS LIST The italics texts in the following form are the default settings Programmable oa amas Value Items i aui Forward ai dd Forsard and UTE Miale with Brake with Brake Revere D
