Before you start operating this model, you must first adjust the throw of the steering servo and calibrate the ESC to the transmitter.

radio caliBraTion
Individual transmitter's signals for neutral, full throttle and full brake vary. You must calibrate your Castle ESC so that it will operate most
effectively with your transmitter. Anytime the ESC is powered up with a new transmitter, or with different throttle channel settings, it will
need to be calibrated to "know" what the transmitter's throttle settings are.
Please start by zeroing out any throttle trim that you may have set in your transmitter.
Make sure that the battery polarity and input polarity on the ESC are correct. Check the on/off switch of the Castle ESC to make sure that it
is in the OFF position ("ON" is marked in small letters on one side).

How To caliBraTe THe esc
stEP 1 : Start with the transmitter ON and the ESC switched OFF and not connected to the battery.
stEP 2 : Plug a battery into your Castle ESC.
stEP 3 : Hold full throttle on the transmitter and turn the ESC's switch ON. Keep holding full throttle on the transmitter. If all your connec-
tions are correct, you will hear one multi-toned initialization "ring" from the motor (all tones are played by the ESC vibrating the
motor).
stEP 4 : After a second or two, the green LED on the ESC will blink rapidly and the motor will "ring" 4 times rapidly in a row (accepting the full
throttle endpoint). After the green LED flashes and tones, the ESC will blink the red LED. At this point the full throttle endpoint has been
set within the ESC and now it's looking for the full brake endpoint (red LED blinking).
stEP 5 : Move the throttle trigger to the full brake position and hold full brake. After a few seconds, the ESC will flash the red LED and ring
4 times rapidly (accepting full brake endpoint).
stEP 6 : After accepting the full brake endpoint the ESC will then blink the yellow LED. Now relax the trigger to the neutral position. The
ESC will now ring 4 times and flash the yellow LED rapidly to accept the neutral position.
After accepting the neutral position, the ESC will ring twice and flash ALL the LEDs. This is the arming tone and LED indication that
the ESC IS NOW ARMED and the car will respond to throttle inputs from your transmitter.
From this point on, when you connect batteries and turn the switch on, the ESC will give the initialization tone and flash after a battery is
plugged in and the switch is turned on, and the arming tone will ring a second or two later. If the ESC is programmed for the Auto-Lipo set-
ting, it will beep the number of cells in your Lipo pack between the initialization tones and the arming tones. After the arming tone plays,
the ESC is ACTIVE and will respond to throttle application.
If you have problems calibrating your transmitter with the Castle ESC, please see the troubleshooting guide on the next page for more tips.
Once you are calibrated and armed, do one last check before going out and experiencing the Castle brushless difference. Slowly advance
the throttle and check the rotation direction of the motor and the color of the LEDs on the ESC. If the motor is spinning in the right direc-
tion and the GREEN LED is blinking green, then you are ready for a test run before going into the settings of the ESC. If the ESC shows the
green LED with throttle, but the wheels spin in the wrong direction, you'll need to switch any two of the motor wires (example: switch from
red to red and black to black to red to black and black to red).
