After reviewing instructions, if you feel that your ESC/system requires service, please obtain the most current product service options and pricing by the following ways: WEBSITE: Print a copy of the PRODUCT SERVICE FORM from the CUSTOMER SERVICE section of the website. Fill out the needed information on this form and return it with the Novak product that requires servicing. If using Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries, NEVER use fewer than 4 or more than 9 cells (1. 2VDC/cell) in the vehicle's main battery pack. If using LiPo batteries, ONLY use a 2-cell (2S) or 3-cell (3S) pack for the vehicle's main battery & be sure the correct LiPo Cut-Off programming option is turned ON. The Mongoose is designed for use with sensor-based Novak Brushless Motors. Failure to use Capacitor may result in higher 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. [. . . ] There is a small plastic tab that grabs a small raised barb on the back of the metal socket crimped onto the Teflon wire's end. The plastic tab should be checked to make sure it has not deformed excessively before inserting the metal socket into the plastic connector housing with the barb toward to plastic tabs. If the motor's sensor harness gets damaged, please contact our Customer Service Dept. black orange white red blue green raised metal barb Be sure receiver & antenna are mounted as far from ESC, power wires, battery, & servo as possible--these components all emit RF noise when throttle is applied. On graphite or aluminum chassis vehicles, it may help to place receiver on edge with crystal & antenna as far above chassis as possible. Note: Mount antenna as close to receiver as possible--trail any excess wire off top of antenna mast (cutting or coiling excess antenna wire will reduce radio range).
