10. Programming the Drive Control Unit

The drive control unit has many different programming options, e.g. adjustment of the braking strength, a low-voltage
protection function for LiPo rechargeable batteries and much more.
We would like to explain the function of the programming using the following example of how to set the handbrake
function.
The higher the set value of the handbrake function, the less the vehicle rolls when it is resting on a
slope. A standard electric motor - at rest - has a certain amount of braking strength due to the magnets
it contains - a brushless electric motor, however, does not.
The basic (factory) setting is "10%". In the following example, the value is to be set to "40%", so that the
vehicle also stays in place on a slightly steeper slope - without the need to actively control it using the
throttle/brake lever.
To do so, proceed as follows:
• Switch off the drive control unit.
• The remote control transmitter must be activated/must remain switched
on (don't switch it off!). Release the dial (9) and the lever (10), do not move
them.
• Hold down the small button on the drive control unit (see arrow in the
picture to the right) and switch the drive control unit on (do not release the
button, keep it held down!).
Do not use any force when holding the button down, otherwise the button
may break, you will void your guarantee!
• The red LED on the side of the drive control unit flashes. Continue to
press and hold the setup button, don't release it!
• The red LED stops flashing, now the green LED begins to flash (continue to press and hold the setup button, don't
release it!).
Depending on the flash signal given by the green LED, the drive control unit is in a corresponding
settings menu. At the same time as the flash signal emitted by the green LED, the motor emits a
corresponding beep tone.
Staying with the example of setting the handbrake function - release the set-up button at the exact time when the
green LED flashes twice briefly (2x).
• The green LED goes out, now the red LED flashes as often as the current value which is set on the drive control unit.
1x short = 0%
2x short = 5%
3x short = 10%
4x short = 15%
40
1x long= 20%
1x long, 1x short = 25%
1x long, 2x short = 30%
1x long, 3x short = 40%
