Programmable Electronic Controllers for Brushless Motors
Congratulation on your purchase of a RAY G2 Line electronic controller for brushless motors. The
state-of-the-art RAY G2 Line covers almost the entire range of electric powered planes flown by
a Sunday flyer. All the ESCs can be quickly programmed using your transmitter and even easier
with the optional RAY G2 Card.
PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS
1. Programmable Brake Setting (use the brake on for folding props applications only).
2. Programmable Battery Type (LiPo or NiCd/NiMH).
3. Programmable Low Voltage Cut-Off Type (power reduction or immediate shut down ).
4. Programmable Low Voltage Cut-Off Setting.
5. Programmable Soft Acceleration Start Ups (for gearbox and helicopter applications).
6. Programmable Timing Settings (to enhance ESC efficiency and smoothness).

CONNECTING THE RAY ESC
The speed controller can be connected to the motor by soldering directly or with high quali-
ty connectors. Always use new connectors, which should be soldered carefully to the cables
and insulated with heat shrink tube. Use only high quality connectors to connect the ESC
to the flight pack as well - 2 mm gold plated connectors (Pelikan Daniel #7939 or #7940) for
currents up to 20A; 3,5 mm (#7941), 4 mm (#7946) gold plated connectors or DEAN-T (#7949)
for currents up to 60A and 6 mm (#7945) for currents up to 80A. The maximum length of the
battery pack wires should be within 15 cm (6 inches).
Plug the UNI servo connector cable of the ESC to your receiver throttle output. The ESCs
featuring BEC or SBEC voltage stabilizer will feed your receiver and servos from the flight
battery pack.

Please bear in mind improper polarity or short circuit will damage the ESC therefore it is your
responsibility to double check all plugs for proper polarity, and proper connection BEFORE
connecting the battery pack for the first time.
POWERING UP FOR THE FIRST TIME & THE AUTOMATIC THROTTLE CALIBRATION
The RAY ESC features Automatic Throttle Calibration to ensure the smoothest throttle re-
sponse and resolution throughout the entire throttle range of your transmitter. This step
has to be performed just once to allow the ESC to "learn and memorize" the throttle output
signal of your transmitter. It only needs to be repeated if you changed your transmitter.

is only possible with a computer radio.
• Check the direction of rotation of the propeller. If it was incorrect, simply
swap two of the tree wires between the ESC and motor or program the ESC
(refer to the ESC manual).
• Check the correct position of the centre of gravity (CG) – 75-85 mm behind
the leading edge of the wing (Fig. 6). Adjust the CG position by moving
the flight pack - if you could not reach the recommended position, do not
hesitate to add appropriate amount of lead to the nose or tail. An extra
couple of grams won't spoil the flying characteristics - but the incorrect CG
position is a killer.
• Fully charge your flight pack and transmitter batteries, check the proper
function of your radio and perform the range check of your radio accord-
ing to its instruction manual. The range has to be almost the same with the
motor off and at full throttle (no more than 10% decrease is acceptable). DO
NOT try to fly unless the range check is 100% successful.
no surprise for a medium-advanced pilot that is supposed to fly this model.
1. Switch on the transmitter, move throttle stick to the top position.
2. Connect battery pack to the ESC, and wait for about 2 seconds.
3. The "Beep-Beep-" tone should be emitted, means the top point of throttle range has been
confirmed.
4. Move throttle stick to the bottom position, several "beep-" tones should be emitted to
present the amount of battery cells.
5. A long "Beep-" tone should be emitted, means the lowest point of throttle range has been
correctly confirmed.
The throttle has been calibrated now and your ESC is ready for operation.
NORMAL ESC START-UP PROCEDURE
1. Move throttle stick to bottom position and then switch on transmitter.
2. Connect battery pack to ESC, special tone like "123" means power supply is OK.
3. Several "beep-" tones should be emitted to present the amount of lithium battery cells.
4. When self-test is finished, a long "beep-----" tone should be emitted.
5. Slowly move the throttle stick up, the prop should start to rotate clockwise (looking from
the cockpit of the plane). If it spins in the opposite direction, pull the throttle stick back,
disconnect the flight battery and swap any two of the three cables between the motor

and the ESC. The re-check again.

3. Throttle signal loss protection: The ESC will reduce the output power if throttle signal is
lost for 1 second, further loss for 2 seconds will cause the output to be cut-off completely.

1. Brake: ON/OFF
-
ON - Sets the propeller to the brake position when the throttle stick is at the minimum posi-
-
tion (Recommended for folding props).
-
OFF - Sets the propeller to freewheel when the throttle stick is at the minimum position.

3. Low Voltage Cutoff Type: Reduce Power / Hard Cut-off

Reduce Power – ESC reduces motor power when the preset Low Voltage Protection Thresh-

old value is reached.
6 servos
Hard Cut-off – ESC instantly cuts motor power off when the preset Low Voltage Protection
Threshold value is reached
4. Low Voltage Protection Threshold: (Low / Medium / High)
1) For Li-xx packs - the battery cell number is calculated automatically. Low / Middle / High
cutoff voltage for each cell is: 2.85V/3.15V/3.3V. For example: For a 3S Lipo, when "Middle"
cutoff threshold is set, the cut-off voltage will be: 3.15*3=9.45V.
2) For Ni-xx packs - low / medium / high cutoff voltages are 0%/50%/65% of the startup volt-
age (i.e. the initial voltage of battery pack), and 0% means the low voltage cut-off function
is disabled. For example: For a 6 cells NiMH battery, fully charged voltage is 1.44*6=8.64V,
when "Middle" cut-off threshold is set, the cut-off voltage will be: 8.64*50%=4.32V.
5.Soft Acceleration Start up: Normal / Soft / Very Soft
Normal mode is suitable for fixed-wing aircraft. Soft or Very Soft modes are suitable for
helicopters. The initial acceleration of the Soft and Very Soft modes are slower, it takes 1.5
second for Soft startup or 3 seconds for Very Soft startup from initial throttle advance to full
throttle. If the throttle is completely closed (throttle stick moved to bottom position) and
Motor
opened again (throttle stick moved to top position) within 3 seconds after the first startup,
the re-startup will be temporarily changed to normal mode to get rid of the chance of a
crash caused by slow throttle response. This special design is suitable for aerobatic flight
when quick throttle response is needed.
6. Timing setup: Low / Middle / High
Low (3.75°) – Setting for most 2 pole motors.
Middle (15°) - setting for motors with 6 or more poles.
High (26.25°) - setting for motors with 12 or more poles, outrunners
In most cases, middle or low timing works well for all types of motors. However for high
efficiency we recommend the Low timing setting for 2 pole motors (generally, in-runners)
and middle timing for 6 poles and above (generally all outrunners). For higher speed, High
timing can be set. Some motors require different timing setups therefore we suggest you to
follow the manufacturer recommended setup.
