Low Voltage Cuto (LVC)
The ESC will continuously lower power to the motor until complete shutdown
when the battery reaches 18V under load. This helps prevent over-discharge of the
Li-Po battery. Land immediately when the ESC activates LVC. Continuing to fl y after
LVC can damage the battery, cause a crash or both. Crash damage and batteries
damaged due to over-discharge are not covered under warranty.
Repeatedly fl ying the helicopter until LVC activates will damage the helicopter
battery.
Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after use to prevent
trickle discharge. During storage, make sure battery charge does not fall below
3V per cell.
