Thank you for choosing the Dynamite brand. We

know that you, the customer are the reason we are

in business. Your satisfaction is our number one

priority. With this in mind, we have produced this

product to be of the highest quality, performance and

reliability, and at a “value-packed” price. We hope it

provides you with hours of enjoyment in your next

R/C project.

Features

• Mini Tazer Brushless works with 3 phase

sensored or sensorless brushless motors.

• Compact lightweight design features high power

and high efﬁciency output.

• Auto detection of cell type and number of cells

along with automatic cut-off to prevent damage

to battery packs.

• Unlike other ESC’s, power cut-off will not occur

instantly but gradually once the battery voltage

drops below 65% of its full capacity. This allows

you time to bring your vehicle to a safe stopping

location before its stops.

• Reverse delay allows you to operate the brakes

by reversing throttle direction input. Once the

vehicle has slowed reverse will engage. This

feature will prevent damage to your driveline.

• Thermal Overload Protection. Automatically

turns off power to the motor if the temperature of

the ESC becomes to high.

Installing Connectors

Before installation you will ﬁrst need to solder a

quality plug on to the battery leads and bullet type

connectors onto the motor lead wires from your ESC.

1.) The battery leads are the larger 16 gauge black

and red wires coming from he ESC. They are

located on the same side as the switch and

receiver plug harness. We recommend using a

high quality connector such as a Deans Style or

the E-Flight EC-3 connectors (EFLAEC303). The

preferred method of wiring is to use the female

connector housing on the battery and the male

connector housing on the speed control.

2.) The motor side of the ESC has 3 smaller 18

gauge wires black, blue, red and is located on

the opposite side of the battery connectors. You

will also need to solder a bullet type connectors

onto these wires. If you motor of choice does

not provide connectors we recommend using

E-Flight 3.5mm Gold Bullet Connectors

(EFLA241). The preferred method of wiring is to

use the female bullet connectors on the speed

control and the male bullet connectors on the

motor.

Mounting the Speed Control

Mount the Mini Tazer in the location speciﬁed by

your vehicles instruction manual. Use double sided

foam tape to secure the speed control in position.

Use double sided tape to secure the switch to a

convenient location on the chassis or shock tower.

Adjusting the Transmitter

Note: Refer to the radio instructions

for speciﬁc information on transmitter

set-up.

1.) Set the throttle reversing switch to the NORMAL

position (This may need to be reversed on some

brands of radios).

2.) If you transmitter has an adjustable trigger (or

stick) position, move it to the 50/50 position.

3.) Set the “throttle trim” to the center position.

4.) Set the “throttle exponential” to MINIMUM or

ZERO.

5.) Set the “ATV” to 100%.

Operating Instructions

1.) Connect the three wires from the ESC to the

motor.

2.) Insert the receiver plug into the throttle channel

of your receiver.

3.) Before plugging the battery into the ESC, make

sure your transmitter is on and the throttle is in

the neutral position.

4.) Plug the battery in and move the ESC power

switch to the on position.

5.) The ESC will sound 3 beeps. Indicating it is

programmed and ready for action.

6.) Adjust the throttle trim slightly to ﬁnd the best

throttle neutral position. This noted by 2 beeps.

7.) Next check that the ESC throttle functions match

the transmitter input. Lift the car off the ground,

pull back the throttle trigger then push forward

and hold. If the wheels stop rotating then your

ESC and Transmitter are matched correctly. If the

wheels continue to rotate change the position of

throttle trim switch on the transmitter.

8.) Next check the motor for proper rotation. Slowly

pull back on the throttle if the vehicle moves

forward it is correct. If the vehicle moves in

reverse simply change any two of the motor wire

connections.

Note: Do not reverse the battery wire

connection. Reversing the battery

polarity will permanently damage

the ESC.
