Trouble
Motor runs in reverse rotation
Motor stops running in flight.
Motor restarts abnormally
ESC Overheats
Possible Reason
Wrong cables polarity
between the ESC and the
motor.
Throttle signal lost
Battery Pack voltage has
reached the Low Voltage
Protection threshold.
Possible bad cable
connection
Possible RF Interference
at the flying field.
Inadequate ventilation
Servos drawing too much
current and overloading
the ESC.
Over sized motor or prop Reduce Prop size or resize the
Solution
Swap any two of the three
cable connections between
the ESC and the Motor or
access the Motor Rotation
function via the ESC program-
ming mode and change the
pre-set parameters.
Check proper operation of the
radio equipment. Check the
placement of the ESC and the
Receiver and check the route
of the receiver's aerial and ESC
cables to ensure there is ade-
quate separation to prevent
RF interference.Install a ferrite
ring on the ESC's throttle cable.
Land the model immediately
and replace the battery pack.
Check and verify the integrity
of the cable connections
The normal operation of the
ESC may be susceptible to
surrounding RF interference.
Restart the ESC to resume
normal operation on the
ground to verify recurrence.
If the problem persists, test
the operation of the ESC at a
different flying field.
Relocate the ESC to allow
better ventilation
Use servos that are adequa-
tely sized for the ESC. The
maximum BEC current drawn
should be within the BEC
limits.
