What is throttle punch?

There is no "boost", punch is just how much current the ESC dumps into the motor when you punch the throttle. Most esc's have a "soft start" function... which limits the power when you hit the throttle to act like a traction control, "punch" is like the reverse of soft start.

What does the punch mean on ESC?

The punch is basically what others call a current limiter. It limits the amount of initial power that is allowed to go to the motor. Most ESC have this as just a single general setting. Hobbywing gives us much more control over this setting that the competition.

What is RC punch control?

With punch control enabled, the ESC limits this "punch" and it is a lot less severe allowing you to control the car better. The higher the punch control the higher the amount of limiting.

What is throttle EPA?

EPA/Highpoint: This setting allows you to set the maximum throw of the servo or ESC from 0 to full throttle. This eliminates the binding of the servo once it reaches full throw and to give you maximum operating range for your models' throttle.

What is exponential RC car?

Exponential rate is where the servo movement is not directly proportional to the amount of control stick movement on your transmitter. Over the first half on the stick travel, the servo moves less than the stick. This makes control response milder and smoothes out level flight and normal flight maneuvers.

What is ESC start mode?

'Start mode' is something like minimum starting RPM and also throttle control gradient. The gradient of throttle increase seems longer and more gradual (steeper) for the same amount of throttle trigger travel.

What is Turbo slope?

Turbo Slope – This determines the rate at which the turbo timing is added, in steps/0.1s. A smaller number is a more gradual slope.

What is drag brake on RC car?

A drag brake could be considered a control aide. It activates when the throttle position on the transmitter is at neutral, slowing down the vehicle, or even holding it in position/

Do I need to program ESC?

Most ESCs have default settings that will work just fine out of the package. Most can be programmed via the transmitter, but that's a pain and you need the manual if you can download it. So you don't NEED a program card. If you plug it in and it works, forget about it.

How do I calibrate my speed controller?

How do I program an ESC?

Move the throttle stick to Full Throttle, then connect the battery pack to the ESC. The motor will give 2 beeps after 2 seconds. 3. Wait another 5 seconds and the ESC will give a rising tone to indicate you have entered Programming Mode.

What is Expo in RC flying?

Expo makes the sticks less sensitive around stick center, this reduces unintended shaking and keeps small stick movements from having big (undesired) effects. It's called "expo" because as you move the sticks further from center they effect the control surface exponentially more.

Will any 2.4 Ghz receiver work any transmitter?

In general, no. There's little or no interchangability between brands (at the moment) with 2.4 Ghz equipment.

What is dual rate RC?

Dual Rate is the limit function End Point or travel in our digital station. It can act on one channel or several at once. It allows setting in the case of radio control cars limit rotation and speed in the direction. In the case of helicopters or drones, amounts at different speeds in all its channels.
