User manual NOVAK SUPER SPORT 10.5 ESC

[. . . ] · SMOOTH/CONTROLLED LOW SPEED DRIVEABILITY Rotor positioning is key to smooth acceleration without delivering abrupt and uncontrolled bursts of power. · STRONG & CONSISTENT BRAKES & STARTING TORQUE Rotor position knowledge results in consistent starts and stops, without hesitation or inconsistent lag times before acceleration or braking. · LOCKED ROTOR & THERMAL PROTECTION Temperature & position sensors in motor provide unparalleled protection for your investment. Allowing you to run pack after pack without worrying about overheating the motor, ESC, or magnets. ADDITIONAL NOTES: · The Super Sport 10. 5 speed control and the SS4300 brushless motor should be returned together. [. . . ] · INSULATE WIRES Always insulate exposed wiring with heat shrink tubing to prevent short circuits. · NO SOLVENTS Exposing the speed control or motor to any type of solvents can damage the exposed material. · NO CA GLUE Never use cyano-acrylate (CA) glue on the speed control or motor. Exposing the ESC or motor to CA glue will damage the electronics and void the warranty. PRODUCT WARRANTY The Super Sport 10. 5 brushless ESC & SS4300 brushless motor are guaranteed to be free from defects in materials or workmanship for a period of 120 days from the original date of purchase (verified by dated, itemized sales receipt). Warranty does not cover incorrect installation, components worn by use, damage from using fewer than 4 or more than 6 cells (1. 2 volts DC/cell) input voltage, cross-connection of battery/motor power wires, overheating solder tabs, reverse voltage application, damage resulting from thermal overload, damage from incorrect installation of FET servo or receiver battery pack, not installing or incorrect installation of a Novak power capacitor on the ESC, splices to input harness, damage from excessive force when using the One-Touch/SET button or from disassembling case or motor, tampering with internal electronics, allowing water, moisture, or any other foreign material to enter ESC or get onto the PC board, incorrect installation/wiring of input plug plastic, allowing exposed wiring or solder tabs to short-circuit, or any damage caused by a crash, flooding, or act of God. In no case shall our liability exceed the product's original cost. has no control over the connection and use of the speed control & motor or other related electronics, no liability may be assumed nor will be accepted for damage resulting from the use of this product. Every speed control & motor is thoroughly tested and cycled before leaving our facility and is, therefore, considered operational. By the act of connecting/operating speed control, the user accepts all resulting liability. ACCESSORIES REPLACEMENT POWER CAPACITOR [Novak kit #5677] The Super Sport 10. 5 comes with a factory-installed Power Capacitor, and MUST BE USED to maintain cool/smooth operation--Note: We highly recommend using Novak Power Capacitors, as we have done extensive testing & research to find Power Capacitors with the very best quality factors­­other capacitors with similar ratings will not provide equal protection. Larger Novak capacitors are OK. Replacement Super Sport 10. 5 Power Capacitor is available in kit #5677. SUPER-FLEX SILICONE 14G WIRE [Novak kits #5500 & 5508] Novak Super-Flex power wire. 14 gauge silicone wire in kit #5500 (36"red & 36"black) and kit #5508 (2 each of 9"red/black/blue/yellow/orange). INPUT SIGNAL HARNESS [Novak kits #5315 & 5320] User-replaceable input signal harness is available in both short & long lengths. 4. 5" harness in Novak kit #5315, and 9. 0" harness in kit #5320.

A. 2/2006 · #55-1010-1 REVERSE DISABLE The Super Sport 10. 5 ESC is equipped with dual throttle programs: Forward, Brake, & Reverse (Mode 1), and Forward & Brake only (Mode 2). By disabling the reverse feature of the Super Sport 10. 5, the speed control can be set-up for forward and brake only operation, which may be useful if you are going to use this vehicle at your local track and they do not allow reversible ESCs to be used during racing. SENSOR HARNESS WIRING Should any of the 26G Teflon wires pull out of the connector on the end of the motor's sensor harness, replace them into the appropriate slot in the connector as shown below. The connector has small plastic tabs that grab a small raised barb on the back of the metal socket that is crimped onto the ends of the Teflon wire. The plastic tab should be checked to make sure it has not deformed excessively before inserting the socket into the plastic connector housing. Note: If the motor's sensor harness becomes damaged, contact the Novak Customer Service Department. black orange white red blue green raised metal barb VEHICLE GEARING (Important) The Losi vehicle this brushless speed control and motor came with used 19 tooth pinion gear and a 90 tooth spur gear. The stock gearing is for general outdoor use--If the model is going to be run in a confined area, a smaller pinion gear may be necessary to prevent over-heating. {If operating temperatures get too high, the ESC and/or motor may thermally shut down & may cause internal damage that voids product warranty} Selecting Throttle Mode with TRANSMITTER ON With transmitter ON & ESC connected to receiver and battery: 1. [. . . ] CLEAN INSIDE MOTOR: Remove 4-40 socket head cap screws on the shaft side & remove end bell. Next, remove the rotor by pulling it out by the shaft--be careful not to damage magnet or lose shaft spacers (if epuipped with). Use compressed air to blow debris off rotor and out of the inside of the motor--DO NOT USE SOLVENTS. Reassemble, making sure the short spacer is on the pinion side of rotor. [. . . ]
