Team Orion Experience 2 Pro Bedienungsanleitung

Instruction Manual
Thank you for your choosing the Team Orion Expe-
rience 2 Pro 10 ESC. This ESC features the lat-
est developments in R/C car brushless technology.
For maximum ease of use, no soldering is required
and the ESC is equipped with an automatic setup
system You can use this brushless ESC with any
compatible 1/10 scale car.
This ESC is designed to be used with the Team
Orion Vortex 10 brushless motor (ORI28809).
To ensure the safest possible use, the ESC fea-
tures several safety systems:
• Overheating protection
• Battery low voltage protection
• Auto-brake function in case of radio signal loss
Please read the instructions carefully to ensure that
you receive maximum performance and reliability.
ESC Installation
We recommend cutting out air vents on the
bodyshell to improve cooling.
• Install the ESC so that it has enough airflow for
cooling during operation and so that you can
easily connect it to the motor and battery.
• Connect the ESC receiver plug to the receiver,
usually channel/position 2 on the receiver.
• Connect the three motor wires from the motor
to the ESC.
Gearing
You must use correct gearing for the system
to function properly. Refer to your car man-
ual if you need information about gear ratios.
We recommend using a gear ratio betwen 10.88
and 14.15.
Using the wrong gear ratio can cause malfunctions
and damage the ESC or motor.
Batteries
Only use batteries equipped with Deans plugs.
The ESC supports 2 to 3 LiPo/LiFe cells or 6 to 8
NiMH/NiCd cells.
For the best performance we recommend using
only 2S LiPo batteries.
We recommend using these Team Orion batteries:
• NiMH Rocket packs 3300, 4500 or 5100
• LiPo Rocket packs 2400, 3000, 3500 or 4000
• LiPo Molecular power, 2 or 3 cell
Using the Experience 2 Pro ESC
• Switch on your transmitter
• Switch on the ESC
• The ESC emits a beep, confirming that the auto-
matic setup is completed.
• You are ready to go!
Important!
Do not move the throttle until you hear the beep.
ESC Settings
Several ESC parameters can be modified to fine
tune the ESC function.The factory settings can only
be modified using the optional Team Orion Vortex
Digital Setting Box (ORI65026).
Default factory settings
1. Battery type: LiPo automatic detection
2. Operation mode : forward/reverse
3. Brake: 40%
4. Acceleration: medium
5. Forward power limit: 100%
6. Reverse power limit: 70%
7. Drag brake: 0%
8. Timing: High
9. Neutral deadband: 4

ESC
10. Operating frequency: 16Khz
11. Motor rotation directon: normal
Adjustable parameters
1. Battery type
This parameter adjusts the LVC cut-off system.
The LVC will restrain the power output to the motor
when the battery is almost empty, stop running the
car as soon as you feel a drop in power.
Available settings: LiPo auto-detection, NiMH/
NiCd/LiFe
2. Operation mode
Use this parameter to adjust the ESC for forward
only or forward and reverse operation.
Available settings: forward/reverse, forward only
3. Brake
This parameter adjusts the braking power. You can
use a lower value for rough or slippery surfaces
and a higher value for smooth and high-grip sur-
faces. High value puts extra strain on the ESC and
motor, use cautiously.
Available settings: 10% to 80%
4. Acceleration
This parameter determines the power curve of the
acceleration. You can use a lower value for rough
or slippery surfaces and a higher value for smooth
and high-grip surfaces.
Available settings: low, medium, high
5. Forward power limit
This parameter adjusts the maximum forward
power available. Use a lower value to make your
car more easily controllable.
Available settings: 10% to 100%
6. Reverse power limit
This parameter adjusts the maximum reverse
power available. Use a lower value to make your
car more easily controllable.
Available settings: 0% to 100%
7. Drag brake
Use this parameter to adjust the amount of brake
to be applied when the throttle is returned to neu-
tral. This can improve the feeling while driving the
car and releasing the throttle. High value puts extra
strain on the ESC and motor, use cautiously.
Available settings: 0% to 80%
8. Timing
Timing is used to change the motor characteristics.
A lower timing value improves the efficiency and
gives a smoother throttle response. A higher timing
value increases performance, but at the expense of
efficiency and smoothness. High value puts extra
strain on the ESC and motor, use cautiously.
Available settings: very low to very high
9. Neutral dead-band
The neutral dead-band modifies the ESC's
response to the transmitters throttle input around
the neutral point.
Available settings: 2 to 6
10. Operating frequency
This parameter modifies the drive frequency of the
motor. Use a lower value for stronger acceleration.
Available settings: 8kHz, 16kHz
11. Motor rotation direction
This parameter sets the default rotation direction
of the motor. You might need to change this setting
depend on your car.
Available settings: normal, reverse
12. Default settings
Loads the default factory settings.
Troubleshooting
Car runs backwards:
Reverse any two of the three wires connecting the
motor to the ESC.
Car goes faster in reverse than forward:
Switch off the ESC, change the throttle reverse
switch on the transmitter and switch ESC back on.
The ESC does not beep when switched ON:
• Transmitter is switched off
• Transmitter or receiver is defective
• Motor wires are improperly connected
• Battery is empty or defective
• ESC is defective
Car stutters:
• Transmitter or receiver is defective
• Motor wires are improperly connected
• Battery is empty, defective or can't supply
enough power
• Use a smaller pinion (shorter gearing)
• ESC is defective
Motor and/or ESC overheating, :
• Use a smaller pinion (shorter gearing)
• Make sure the transmission runs freely
• Ambient temperature is too high
• Inappropriate ESC settings
• Insufficient cooling
• Low quality or damaged battery
• ESC is defective
