Product Features
- Plug and Play compatible with Stevens Aeromodel power systems and batteries.
- Simple setup – no programming required when used in fixed wing sport models, with LiPo chemistry batteries (see Factory
Default Settings below). - Extremely low output resistance and superior current endurance.
- Multiple protection features: low-voltage cutoff protection, overheat protection, throttle signal loss protection, and more.
- Two start modes: Normal and Soft.
- Compatible with fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters.
- Throttle range can be configured to be compatible with all transmitters.
- Smooth, linear, and precise throttle response.
Throttle Range Calibration
1. Turn on the transmitter and move the throttle stick to the top position.
2. Connect the battery pack to the ESC. After about 2 seconds, you will hear “Beep-Beep” tones, indicating that the throttle’s
highest point has been confirmed.
3. Move the throttle stick to the bottom position. After 1 second, you will hear “Beep-Beep” tones, confirming the throttle’s lowest
point. The throttle range is now set.
4. The ESC will then perform a self-detection. Once the music tone stops, the detection is complete.
5. The ESC is ready to use.
Normal Startup Procedure
1. Turn on the transmitter and move the throttle stick to the bottom position.
2. Connect the battery pack to the ESC. You will hear several “Beep” tones, indicating the number of battery cells detected.
3. Brake state confirmation will follow: one tone means Brake ON, and two tones mean Brake OFF.
4. Once the self-detection is complete, the ESC is ready to use.
Battery Cell Counting: Two short beeps indicate 2 battery cells, three short beeps indicate 3 cells, and so on.
Brake Detection: One long beep indicates Brake ON; two short beeps indicate Brake OFF.
Factory Default Settings
1. Brake Type: Brake OFF
2. Battery Type: LiPo with automatic cell detection
3. Low Voltage Cutoff Type: Reduce Power
4. Cutoff Voltage Threshold: 3.0V/cell
5. Soft Start: Enabled

Cautions
WARNING! Model aircraft equipped with high-power motors can be dangerous and potentially fatal. High-power motor systems can
generate significant heat, which may cause wires and batteries to overheat, leading to fires, burns, or other hazards. Follow the wiring
instructions carefully. Always fly in an approved field and never fly over or near spectators. Although this controller is equipped with a
safety arming program, you should still exercise caution when connecting the main battery.
