limiter value
Time
As illustrated on the right, changing the current limiter value changes the
maximum current capacity. When the road surface is slippery, lower the
limiter value (close to 0%). When you need high torque, raise the value. If
you set the current limiter value to 100%, the current limiter function
does not work and maximum torque can be produced. If you set the value
to 0%, the current is limited to the minimum value and some motors may
revolve at a slow speed. Set the value according to your needs.

Adjusting the brake to match the road surtace enables smooth running
The trimmer turns within a range of 240 degrees. Do not force it past this range.
Current limiter trimmer (0 to 100%)
Brake adjustment trimmer (0 to 70% max)
The " " mark in the trimmer indicates
the set value.
In normal mode, the minimum brake level can be changed by setting the
brake adjustment trimmer. When the trimmer is set to minimum, the
brake level changes linearly with the trigger level. When the trimmer is set
to maximum, the minimum brake level is 70% of the maximum brake
level. If you need strong brakes, gradually increase the setting value until
you find a suitable level. Turning on the power switch while holding down
the SET switch and then releasing the SET switch activates the neutral
brake mode. The neutral brake level is the value specified with the brake
adjustment trimmer. (The neutral brake mode is reset when you turn the
A-01B off and on again without holding the SET switch. The operation
mode setting is not retained.)
Brake trigger level : The level of the throttle opening between the
neutral and brake-high point.
Dash power mode
★When a car is started, the current limiter can be canceled only with the first throttle operation if you want to make a quick start.
1.
Turn the transmitter on and hold down the SET switch for approximately 5 seconds. The LED flashes. (Same as in setup mode.)
2. Wait until the LED stops flashing. (Approximately 10 seconds) The dash power mode is set.
If any noise interferes with the above setting procedure, the ESC may mistake the noise for throttle
operation and may not set the dash power mode.
Mounting heat sink (Radiating fin) Tips
Electricity flows through the radiating plates. If you mount a radiating fin, the
electricity might flow through it. Do not allow other cables and metallic parts to
make contact with the radiating fin.
★
If you run a car under normal conditions, the radiating fin is not
necessary. When running a car under a blazing sun or if you are using
a high-torque motor, mounting the radiating fin enables a more
stable run. Mount the radiating fin as described below:
1. Remove an aluminum top sticker at the top of the ESC housing.
2. A metallic plate is exposed.
3. Remove dust from the plate surface.
4. Attach the double-sided tape (included) to a radiating fin.
(Be sure to always use thin double-sided tape.)
5. Securely attach the heat sink to the metallic plate of the ESC.
(To improve radiation, apply 2-gel type epoxy resin adhesive instead of the
double-sided tape. Knead the gels well and apply a light coat of it to the heat
sink. Attach the heat sink to the metallic plate and fix them until the adhesive
dries. Note that you cannot remove the heat sink once you attach it.)
★Limiting the maximum current to the motor prevents a skid and improves battery efficiency.

(1) About the setting of the braking point:
When the braking point is set to a value that is too low, the brake feels
weak.
• For a Propo radio control with ABS, turn off the ABS first, set the braking
point, and then turn on the ABS again.
• When you have problems with the setting, reverse the current setting of
the reverse switch on the throttle side of the transmitter, and then adjust
the amplifier settings again.
(2) About the setting for the braking rate:
Adjusting the braking rate will enable smoother travel motion. Use this
feature when faster braking performance is required with a heavy car body,
etc. First, turn the braking adjustment trimmer to the leftmost position,
and then gradually turn it to the right to increase the initial strength of the
brake actuation. Adjust the braking rate to the optimal point while
checking the travel motion. (Note that the maximum braking power will
not change.) When the neutral braking setting is selected, the setting is
adjusted so that the braking is always set to ON when the car is put in
neutral. This feature displays its force when traveling on a course requiring
high cornering abilities. Use this feature as required.
(3) About the setting of the high point:
The setting of the throttle high point can be adjusted normally at full
throttle. However, the setting can also be adjusted short of full throttle (60
to 80%) to change the sensation of operation (acceleration feel). Adjust
the setting at the point with optimal operational feeling.
