Axial AX31144 AE-5 Waterproof Forward/Reverse ESC with Drag Brake 
OVERVIEW
Setup
Throttle calibration should not be needed out-of-the-box. However in order to make the ESC match the
throttle range of different transmitters, the calibration of the ESC is necessary
- Mount the ESC in an area that is well ventilated and isolated from vibration and shock.
- Connect the ESC wires to the motor red-red & black-black
- Plug the receiver wire into the throttle channel on the receiver. The black negative wire should be towards the outside of the receiver.
- Before plugging the batter)’ into the ESC, make sure your transmitter is on and the throttle trim is set at zero.
- Plug in the batter)’ to the ESC with the ESC switch in the OFF position.
- To calibrate the ESC, turn on the transmitter keeping the throttle stick at its neutral position.
- Wait for 3 seconds to let the ESC execute self-test and automatic throttle calibration.
- When the ESC is ready to run, a long beep sound is emitted from the motor.
Do not reverse the battery wire connections! Reversing the battery polarity will permanently damage the ESC.
Notes: - Drag Brake set to 1 DD% from the factory
- LiPo Cut-Off is set to “ON” from the factory
CAUTION
- CONNECT THE BATTERY PACK JUST BEFORE DRIVING ANO DISCONNECT IT IMMEDIATELY AFTER.
- ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOU ARE CONNECTING THE ESC TD A PROPER POWER SOURCE THAT HAS THE CORRECT VOLTAGE & POLARITY. INCORRECT VOLTAGES OR
REVERSED POLARITY WILL DAMAGE THE ESC. - ONCE THE BATTERY PACK IS CONNECTED. HANDLE THE MODEL WITH EXTREME CARE. MAKE SURE YOU ARE CLEAR OF ALL ROTATING PARTS.
