How To Program a "PP-TESC**AU ESC (Electronic Speed Controller)

This guide will go through the steps to program your PP-TESC**AU (Green Heatshrink) ESC. The second part will go through the one time setup procedure.

Part 1 How to program a "PP-TESC**AU ESC using the programming card

• Position the black jumpers on the pins on the programming card (They simply pull off and push on) in your desired positions. Suggested places are shown below.

Sport and basic aerobatic models

Gliders with folding propellers

Multi motored models

3D aerobatic models

• Connect the servo type plug from the ESC to the top 3 pins on the right hand side.

Paying close attention to the polarity. Do not connect anything to the top left pins. Please see connection photo.

• Connect the ESC to any brushless motor, Doesn't matter the order of connection of the 3 wires between the motor and the ESC. (The motor must be connected to the ESC to

hear beeps, as the ESC makes the motor beep).

• Connect a battery to the ESC. The ESC will then make the motor bleep once or twice

depending upon your settings. That's it, you have now successfully programmed the ESC. If you do not hear any bleeps then either the motor is not connected correctly to

the ESC, or there is another fault. Please contact us. • Disconnect battery and plug the servo type plug from the ESC back in to your throttle

channel on your receiver. Go Fly!

Part 2 How to perform the one time setup procedure The following procedure teaches your ESC the Maximum and Minimum throttle

positions of your transmitter. It only needs to be performed once. If you change either your transmitter or receiver this procedure must be repeated.

• Turn on your transmitter and check the sub trim is in the "centre" or "neutral" position on the throttle channel.

• Check the servo travel is at 100% in both directions. No more then 100% and no less then 100%. Alter if necessary.

• Turn off your transmitter. • Remove any propeller for safety. The motor shouldn't turn but you can never be too safe

when it comes to electric motors.

• Turn your Transmitter on. • Move throttle sick to the full throttle position.

• With your ESC plugged in to the throttle channel on your receiver, connect your battery to the ESC as if you were about to fly.

• You will now hear a series of beeps from the motor (der, der, dee dee) • Immediately after hearing this series of beeps move the throttle stick on your

transmitter to the zero throttle position.

• After a couple of seconds you will hear one or two beeps depending upon the setting in your transmitter.

• Programming is complete. You can now replace the propeller and go fly!
