Detailed instructions for use are in the User's Guide.
[. . . ] · MOTOR CAPACITORS REQUIRED Three 0. 1µF (50V) ceramic capacitors must be properly installed on every motor to prevent radio interference. · DON'T LET TRANSISTOR TABS TOUCH Never allow the two transistor tab banks or the heat sinks to touch each other or any exposed metal, as this will create a short circuit and damage the speed control. · DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES Always disconnect the battery pack from the speed control when not in use. · TRANSMITTER ON FIRST Always turn on the power of your transmitter first so that you will have control of the radio equipment when you turn on the speed control.

TRANSMITTER ADJUSTMENT
Proper transmitter adjustment is important for optimum performance from your speed control. The basic throttle channel adjustments for the transmitter are as follows: 1. Set HIGH ATV or EPA to maximum setting.
[Controls amount of throw from neutral to full throttle]
TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE
This section describes possible speed control problems, causes, and solutions.
1. INSTALL MOTOR CAPACITORS Electric motors generate radio noise that can interfere with your receiver and cause radio problems. Included in the accessory kit with the speed control are three 0. 1µF (50V) non-polarized, ceramic capacitors. These capacitors must be installed on every motor to help reduce the noise generated by the motor and also to prevent possible damage to the speed control. Solder 0. 1µF (50V) capacitors between: · POSITIVE (+) motor tab & NEGATIVE (-) motor tab. *If your motor does not have a ground tab, solder the capacitor leads to the can of the motor as shown below.
Negative (-) motor tab 0. 1µF Capacitors Schottky diode Positive (+) motor tab
Steering Channel Works But Motor Will Not Run
· Speed control has thermally shut downAllow ESC to cool downUse milder motor or smaller pinion gear. · Make sure ESC is plugged into the throttle channel of receiver. · Possible internal damageRefer to Service Procedures.
2. Set LOW ATV, EPA, or ATL to maximum setting.
[Controls amount of throw from neutral to full brakes] [Reduce this after ESC adjustment to reduce amount of brakes]
3. Set EXPONENTIAL to zero setting.
[Controls the linearity of the throttle channel]
Receiver Glitches/Throttle Stutters During Acceleration
· Motor capacitors broken or missingRefer to Step 4. · Receiver or antenna too close to speed control, power wires, battery, or motorRefer to Step 3. · Excessive current to motorUse a milder motor or a smaller pinion gear.
4. Set THROTTLE CHANNEL TRIM to middle setting.
[Adjusts the neutral position of speed control] [Increase or decrease after ESC adjustment to adjust coast brakescan be used to give braking in neutral trigger position]
5. Set THROTTLE CHANNEL REVERSING SWITCH to either position.
[Do not change switch position after programming]
6. Set ELECTRONIC TRIGGER THROW ADJUSTMENT to 70% throttle and 30% brake throw (or 7:3).
[Adjusts pistol-grip transmitter's throttle trigger throw]
Motor and Steering Servo Do Not Work
· Check wires, receiver signal harness wiring and color sequence, radio system, crystals, battery and motor connectors, and battery pack. · Possible internal damageRefer to Service Procedures.
7. Set MECHANICAL TRIGGER THROW ADJUSTMENT to position with 2/3 throttle and 1/3 brake throw.
[Adjusts pistol-grip transmitter's throttle trigger throw]
Model Runs Slowly / Slow Acceleration
· Check motor and battery connectorsReplace if needed. · Incorrect transmitter or speed control adjustmentRefer to Steps 5 and 6. · Optional external Schottky diode (if used) installed backwards or damagedRefer to Step 4.
Extra 0. 1µF capacitors available in Novak kit #5620.

2. · Backwards motor timingReverse motor end bell.
ESC Is Melted Or Burnt/ESC Runs With Switch Off
· Internal damageRefer to Service Procedures. [. . . ] Strip about 1/8" of insulation off both ends of the small (26 gauge) extension wires that are the correct length to reach the position that the brake light is mounted. Solder the extension wires onto the brake light wires from the speed control. If two LEDs are to be used, then solder two extension wires to each of the brake light wires from the speed control. Solder the end of the extension wire from the red brake light wire to the lead on the notched or flat side of the LED. [. . . ]
