Calibrating the throttle range on your HOBBYWING QUICRUN WP 1080 G2 Brushed ESC is crucial for optimal performance. Here's a step-by-step guide to get you up and running:
-
Transmitter Setup:
- Ensure your transmitter is on and all throttle channel parameters are at their default settings (typically 100%).
- If your transmitter lacks an LCD, position the throttle trim to its maximum setting and set the throttle "TRIM" to 0.
- Disable the "ABS/braking function" on your transmitter.
-
ESC Power On and Calibration Initiation:
- With the transmitter on and the ESC connected to a battery but turned off, press and hold the SET button on the ESC.
- While holding the SET button, press the ON/OFF button to power on the ESC.
- The RED LED on the ESC will begin to flash, and the motor will emit a series of beeps. Release the SET button immediately.
-
Throttle Range Calibration:
- Neutral Point: Leave the transmitter's throttle stick in the neutral position and briefly press the SET button. The RED LED will flash once, and the motor will beep once, confirming the neutral position.
- Full Throttle Endpoint: Move the throttle trigger to the full throttle position and press the SET button. The RED LED will blink twice, and the motor will beep twice, indicating the full throttle endpoint has been set.
- Full Brake Endpoint: Push the throttle trigger to the full brake position and press the SET button. The RED LED will blink three times, and the motor will beep three times, confirming the full brake endpoint.
-
Calibration Completion:
- Once you've set all three endpoints, the ESC is calibrated and ready to use.
- You can start the motor approximately 3 seconds after completing the ESC/radio calibration.
Following these steps ensures accurate throttle control and optimal performance from your HOBBYWING QUICRUN WP 1080 G2 Brushed ESC.
