[. . . ] RETURN TRANSMITTER THROTTLE TO NEUTRAL The red status LED will turn solid red, indicating that speed control is at neutral and that proper programming has been completed. Blue & yellow LEDs will also be on indicating Minimum Brake (blue) & Drag Brake (yellow) settings are at levels above 0%. If transmitter settings are changed, the One-Touch Programming must be repeated. NOTE: Whenever the One-Touch Programming set-up is performed, the speed control will automatically revert back to the factory-default settings. service procedures Before sending your speed control in for service, review the Trouble-Shooting Guide (in Track Guide). After reviewing instructions, if you feel that your ESC requires service, please obtain the most current product service options and pricing by the following ways: WEB SITE: Print a copy of the PRODUCT SERVICE FORM from the CUSTOMER VOLTAGE cUt-OFF circuitry When active (see Track Guide to turn ON/OFF), the built-in Novak Smart-Stop Voltage Cut-Off Circuitry lets you safely use 2S Lithium Polymer (LiPo) or Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFe) battery packs by cutting off the speed control's throttle output when the critical safety voltages are reached. [. . . ] This includes running the motor without a pinion or holding the car in the air and running the motor at or close to full power. Always disconnect batteries from ESC to avoid short circuits and possible fire hazard. If using LiPo or LiFe battery packs, use a 2-cell (2S) pack for the vehicle's main battery & be sure the Voltage Cut-Off programming option is turned ON (refer to Track Guide). If using NiCd or NiMH batteries, NEVER use more than 6 cells (1. 2VDC/cell) in the vehicle's main battery pack, and disable Voltage Cut-Off Circuitry (refer to Track Guide). An external 2S Power Trans-Cap module is installed on ESC & MUST be used at all times. Failure to use a Novak Power Trans-Cap module with the proper cell rating will result in higher ESC temperatures & possible thermal shut-down or damage. Always turn on the power of the transmitter first so that you will have control of the vehicle when you turn it on. Using LiPo/LiFe batteries that cannot supply the amount of current required by this system will result in possible battery pack, ESC & motor damage, and will void the warranty. With the higher performance of brushless systems, undesirable radio system noise may occur when used with lower quality radio systems. AM systems are NOT recommended. NO SCHOTTKY DIODES!

User-replaceable input signal harness (Ch. 2) Sensor harness of play between the pinion gear and the spur gear (about the thickness of a piece of paper)­check the free play at several positions around the spur gear to ensure a proper mesh (just in case the gears are out of round). Orange motor phase wire (Phase C) MAKE SURE THE PINION/SPUR GEAR MESH IS NOT TOO TIGHT!If gear mesh is too tight, motor shaft breakage can occur.

CHECK FOR PROPER GEARING Battery harness with Traxxas® plug (Novak #5331) The brushless motor (with sintered rotor) & ESC should NOT be hotter than 160°F after a 5 minute run. Lower the gearing until both the ESC & motor are under this temperature.
