- Brake type
Normal brake: Move the throttle stick to the bottom position. The function is now activated. In this mode, the brake amount equals to the brake force you've pre-set.
Reverse brake: After selecting this option, the Reverse Brake signal wire (its signal range must be the same as the throttle range) must be plugged into any vacant channel on the receiver. You can control the motor direction via that channel. The channel range of 0–50 % is the default motor direction, the channel range of 50 % to 100 % will cause the motor to spin counterclockwise. The channel stick should be within the channel range of 0–50 % (0 would be better) when the first time you power on the ESC. After the Reverse function is activated, the motor will stop first and then spin in the reversed direction and then increase to the speed corresponding to the throttle input. Either signal loss, no matter whether reverse brake signal loss or throttle signal loss during the flight can cause the throttle signal loss protection to be activated.
Linear reverse brake: After selecting this option, the Reverse Brake signal wire must be plugged into any vacant channel on the receiver, and you can control the motor direction via that channel. This channel should be set to a proportional control (usually a knob or slider on the transmitter). Turn the proportional control to activate the reverse function. The speed of the motor is controlled by the proportional control. When reversed, the initial throttle value is started at 10 %, and the throttle stroke of the linear switch is cured to 1.34–1.79 ms. The channel stick should be at 0 % throttle position when the first time you power on the ESC. Either signal loss, no matter whether reverse brake signal loss or throttle signal loss during the flight can cause the throttle signal loss protection to be activated. - Brake force
This item is only effective in the "Normal brake" mode. The higher the level, the stronger the braking effect, where the low/medium/high corresponds to the braking force: 60 %, 90 %, 100 %. - Voltage cut-off
Soft cut-off: After selecting this option, the ESC will gradually reduce the output to 60 % of the full power in 3 seconds after the low voltage cut-off protection is activated.
Hard cut-off: After selecting this option, the ESC will immediately cut-off the output when the low voltage cut-off protection is activated. - LiPo cells
The ESC will automatically calculate the number of LiPo cells you have plugged in as per the "3.7 V/Cell" rule if "Auto Calc." is selected, or you can set this item manually. - Cut-off voltage
If set off, the low voltage protection function is disabled. In addition, the protection voltage value of the low voltage protection function corresponding to the low/medium/three modes is about 2.8 V/section, 3.0 V/section and 3.4 V/section. This value is the voltage of a single battery, multiplied by the number of lithium batteries automatically identified by the electronic governor or the number of lithium batteries manually set, which is the protection voltage value of the battery. (For example, if the low voltage protection threshold of 3 lithium batteries is medium, the protection voltage of the batteries is 3×3.0 = 9.0 V) - Start-up mode
This is used to adjust the throttle response time of ESC acceleration from 0 % to 100 %. Normal/soft/very soft correspond to approximately 200/500/800 ms respectively. - Timing
Can adjust the drive motor timing value. The low/medium and high are respectively: 5°/15°/25°. - Active freewheeling (DEO)
This item is adjustable between "Enabled" and "Disabled", and it is enabled by default. With it enabled, you can have better throttle linearity or smoother throttle response. - Search mode
After selecting this option, ESC will force the motor to beep for the set time when the throttle is kept at 0 %.
