Warning: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS This radio control model is not a toy!

First-time builders should seek advice from people having building experience in order to assemble the model correctly and to produce its performance to full extent.
Assemble this kit only in places out of children’s reach!
Take enough safety precautions prior to operating this model. You are responsible for this model’s assembly and safe operation!
Always keep this instruction manual ready at hand for quick reference, even after completing the assembly.

Safety Precautions

Never fly the Airplane where there are crowds of people, power linese overhead, automobiles or near highways. give yourself plenty of room for flying.as the plane can travel at a high rate of speed. Remember you are responsible for the safety of others.
Do not fly in strong winds.
Do not attempt to catch the Airplane while flying.
Children under the age of 16 should not have admission to the transmitter for the plane.
Never leave this system unattended. with the batteries in the unit and around children.Injury can result by children turning on the transmitter or the plane.
Keep away from the propeller at all times. The system can automatically start when the batteries are plugged in, regardless if the transmitter is in the on or off position. The propeller can cause injury!
Before flying, always remember to turn on the transmitter first, before plugging in the battery pack. Stay clear of propeller.
Always turn the speed controller all the way down and the switch on “OFF”.(left control stick in the down position) before starting; otherwise the propeller will start on full power when you plug the battery into the plane.
After running the motor. disconnect the battery first before turning off the transmitter, otherwise the propeller may start at full power.
Never leave the charger or battery near wet areas.
Completely discharging a Li-poly battery can result in permanent damage to the cells of the battery. Therefore you must always remember to disconnect the battery after using the plane.

Programmable Items:

Brake Setting, Enabled I Disabled, default is Disabled
Battery Type, Li-xx(Li-ion or Li-poly)/ Ni-xx(NiMH or NiCd), default is Li-xx.
Low Voltage Protection Mode(Cut-Off Mode), Soft Cut-Off (Gradually reduce the output power) or Cut-Off (Immediately stop the output power). Default is Soft Cut-Off.
Low Voltage Protection Threshold(Cut-Off Threshold): Low/ Medium/ High, default is Medium.● When NOT using balance discharge monitoring and protection function (i.e. Not plugging the balance charge connector into the BDMP socket on the Guard series ESC, the ESC only monitors the voltage of the whole battery pack )1) For lithium batteries, the number of battery cells is calculated automatically. Low / medium / high cutoff voltage for each cell is: 2.6V/2.85V/3.1V. For example: For a 3 cells lithium pack, when “Medium” cutoff threshold is set, the cut-off voltage will be: 2.85*3=8.55V.2) For nickel batteries, low/ medium I high cutoff voltages are 0%/45%/60% of the startup voltage (i.e. the initial voltage of battery pack), and 0% means the low voltage cut-off function is disabled. For example: For a 10 cells NiMH battery, fully charged voltage is 1.44*10=14.4V, when “Medium” cut-off threshold is set, the cut-off voltage will be: 14.4*45%=6.5V.● When using balance discharge monitoring and protection function (i.e. Plugging the balance charge connector on battery pack into the BDMP socket on the Guard series ESC, the ESC monitors not only the voltage of the whole battery pack but also the voltage of each cell). For lithium battery, low I medium I high cut off voltage for each cell is: 2.6V/2.85V/3.1V. When the voltage of any cell in battery pack is lower than the cut-off threshold, the protection function is activated.
Startup Mode; Normal /Soft /Super-Soft, default is Normal!. Normal is preferred for fixed-wing aircraft. Soft or Super-soft are preferred for helicopters. The initial acceleration of the Soft and Super-Soft modes are slower in comparison, usually taking 1 second for Soft startup or 2 seconds for Super-Soft startup from initial throttle advance to full throttle. If the throttle is closed (throttle stick moved to bottom) and opened again (throttle stick moved to top) within 3 seconds of the initial startup, the restart-up will be temporarily changed to normal mode to get rid of the chances of a crash caused by slow throttle response. This special design is very suitable for aerobatic flight when quick throttle response is needed.
Timing: Low/ Medium/ High, default is Low. Note2Usually, low timing value can be used for most motors. We recommend the Low timing value for 2 poles motor and Medium timing value for motors with more than 6 poles to get a high efficiency. For higher speed, High timing value can be chosen.Note2: After changing the timing setting, please test your RC model on ground prior to flight!

Begin To Use Your New ESCPlease start the ESC in the following sequences:

Move the throttle stick to the bottom position and then switch on the transmitter.
Connect the battery pack to the ESC, the ESC begins the self-test process, a special tone ” Ji 123″ is emitted, which means the voltage of the battery pack is in normal range, and then N “beep” tones will be emitted, means the number of lithium battery cells. Finally a long “beep—-” tone will be emitted, which means self-test is OK, the aircraft/helicopter is ready to go flying.● If nothing is happened, please check the battery pack and all the connections;● If a special tone ” J> 567i2· is emitted after 2 beep tones (“beep-beep-“), means the ESC has entered the program mode, it is because the throttle channel of your transmitter is reversed, please set it correctly;● If the very rapid “beep-beep-, beep-beep-” tones is emitted, means the input voltage is too low or too high, please check yourbattery’s voltage.
”VERY IMPORTANT I” Because different transmitter has different throttle range, we strongly suggest you using the “Throttle RangeSetting Function” to calibrate throttle range. Please read the instruction above —-”Throttle Range Setting”.

Alert Tone

Input voltage is abnormal: The ESC begins to check the voltage when the battery pack is connected, if the voltage is not in the acceptable range, such an alert tone will be emitted: “beep-beep-, beep beep-,beep-beep-” (Every “beep-beep-” has a time interval of about 1 second. )
Throttle signal is abnormal: When the ESC can’t detect the normal throttle signal, such an alert tone will be emitted: “beep-, beep-, beep-“. (Every “beep-” has a time interval of about 2 seconds)
Throttle stick is not in the bottom position: When the throttle stick is not in bottom (lowest) position, a very rapid alert tone will be emitted: “beep-, beep-, beep-“. (Every “beep-” has a time interval of about 0.25 second.)

Protection Function

Abnormal start up protection: If the motor fails to start within 2 seconds of throttle application, the ESC will cut-off the output power. In this case, the throttle stick MUST be moved to the bottom again to restart the motor. (Such a situation happens in the following cases:The connection between ESC and motor is not reliable, the propeller or the motor is blocked, the gearbox is damaged, etc.)
Over-heat protection: When the temperature of the ESC is over 110 Celsius degrees, the ESC will reduce the output power.
Throttle signal loss protection: The ESC will reduce the output power if throttle signal is lost for 1 second, further loss for 2 seconds will cause its output to be cut-off completely.

Program ExampleSetting “Start Mode” to “Super-Soft”, i.e. value #3 in the programmable item #5

1. Enter Program Mode

Switch on transmitter, move throttle stick to top position, connect battery pack to ESC, wait for 2 seconds, “beep-beep” tone should be emitted. Then wait for another 5 seconds, special tone like •J> 56 7i 2 ” should be emitted, which means program mode is entered.

2. Select Programmable Items

Now you’ll hear 8 tones in a loop. When a long “beep—” tone is emitted, move throttle stick to bottom to enter the “Start Mode”

3. Set Item Value (Programmable Value)

“Beep-“, wait for 3 seconds; “Beep-beep-“, wait for another 3 seconds; then you’ll hear “beep-beep-beep”, move throttle stick to top position, then a special tone ” Jlisis” is em itted , now vou have set the “StartMode” item to the value of “Super-Soft”

4. Exit Program Mode

After the special tone”J> isis”, move throttle stick to bottom within 2 seconds.

Trouble Shooting

Trouble	Possible Reason	Action
After power on, motor does not work, no sound is emitted	The connection between battery pack and ESC is not correct	Check the power connection. Replace the connector.
