Improper gearing will cause excessive heat buildup in the motor
and speed control. Use your vehicle’s kit manual in order to nd the
manufacturer’s recommended pinion size. It is best to monitor the
system’s operating temperature when you are operating on new
and different tracks or racing surfaces. Your system’s operating
temperature should never exceed 160° F (71° C). The best place to
monitor the system’s temperature is at the center of the end bell. If
the temperature is higher than 200° F (93° C) after a 5 minute run,
the gearing should be lowered (change to a smaller pinion gear).
CAUTION: Once the battery is connected to the
system, stay clear of the rotating shaft and pinion gear.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury.

70A Brushed Waterproof ESC has been
designed and built to allow you to operate the product in many
“wet conditions,” including puddles, creeks, wet grass, snow and
even rain.
While waterproof, this component has not been designed to be
immersed in water for long periods of time and should NOT be
treated like a submarine. In addition, most metal parts, includ-
ing any screws and nuts, as well as the contacts in the electrical
cables, will be susceptible to corrosion if additional maintenance is
not performed after running in wet conditions.
To maximize the long-term performance of your ESC and to keep
the warranty intact, it should only be used as described in the “Us-
age Conditions” section of this manual. Additionally, the procedures
described in the “Wet Conditions Maintenance” section must be
performed regularly if you choose to run in wet conditions. If you
are not willing to perform the additional care and maintenance re-
quired, then you should not operate your vehicle in those conditions.
CAUTION: Failure to exercise caution while using this
product and comply with the following precautions could
result in product malfunction and/or void the warranty.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
• Read through the wet conditions maintenance procedures and
make sure that you have all the tools you will need to properly
maintain your ESC.
• Do not operate your ESC where it could come in contact with
salt water (ocean water or water on salt-covered roads), con-
taminated or polluted water. Salt water is very conductive and
highly corrosive, so use caution.
USAGE CONDITIONS
Your ESC will operate successfully in any of the following,
individual-usage scenarios:
• 2 hours continuous operation in damp grass or vegetation.
• 2 hours continuous operation in heavy fog (95% humidity,
saturated air, condensing water).
• 1 hour continuous operation in light rain (<0.10 in/2.5mm per
hour).
• 15 minutes continuous operation in heavy rain (>0.30
in/7.6mm per hour).
• 1 hour continuous operation in light sleet (<0.10 in/2.5mm per
hour).
• 1 hour continuous operation in light snow (<0.25 in/6.35mm
per hour).
• 45 minutes continuous operation in standing or running fresh
water (the water level should always remain below the vehicle
frame), or constant splashing water, without any immersion of
waterproof component(s).
• 5 minutes continuous operation in standing or running fresh
water (the water level should never rise higher than 0.5 in
(about 10mm) above the vehicle frame), constant splash-
ing water, or frequent, intermittent immersion of waterproof
component(s).
• 1 hour continuous operation in damp sand, dirt, mud or snow
(the material level should always be below the vehicle frame),
constant splatter without any immersion or coverage of water-
proof component(s).
Furthermore, when appropriate maintenance procedures (as
described below) are performed promptly following exposure, the
ESC will remain best protected from corrosion or other long-term,
water-related damage.
WET CONDITIONS MAINTENANCE
• Gently rinse the mud and dirt off the ESC with a garden hose.
• Remove the battery pack(s) and dry the contacts.
• If you have an air compressor or a can of compressed air avail-
able, blow off the ESC to help remove any water that may have
gotten into small crevices or corners. Dry any water that may
be inside a recessed connector housing.
• Let the ESC air dry before you store it. Water may continue to
seep or evaporate out of tight areas for a few hours.
NOTICE: Never use a pressure washer to clean your vehicle.
NOTICE: This ESC is waterproofed for use in wet conditions. Make sure the other components in your vehicle are waterproof
or water-resistant before driving in wet conditions.

NOTICE: The transmitter and receiver must be connected.
2. Press and hold the programming button for 1 second.
OPTIONAL: Press and hold the programming button for 5
seconds to reset all ESC programming options.
3. Release the programming button. The red LED will blink to
indicate it has entered programming mode
4. The red LED blinks (and the motor beeps) to indicate the
programming item. Press the programming button for 1
second in order to toggle through the programmable items.
• 1 red LED blink for item one, 2 red LED blinks for item 2,
etc.
• Items 5 and above: 1 long LED blink for item 5, 1 long LED
blink and 1 short LED blink for item 6, etc.
• Items 10 and above: 2 long LED blinks for item 10, 2 long
LED blinks and 1 short LED blink for item 11, etc.
5. Press and hold the programing button for 3 seconds when you
want to enter a programming item.
6. The LED blinks to indicate the programming value within the
item selection.
7. Press and hold the programming button for 3 seconds when
you want to select a programming value.
8. Power off the ESC.
9. Begin the process again to change any other programming
values. One long LED blink and one long beep will indicate
when the ESC is ready to run.
1. Mount the ESC in the location specied by your vehicle’s
instruction manual, or in an area with adequate airow and
protection from damage.
Ensure all wiring connections can be reached prior to mounting.
2. Use double-sided foam tape or mounting tabs with screws on
the bottom of the case to secure the ESC in position.
3. Secure all wiring and ensure heatsink has access to airow.
4. The switch can be mounted to the side of the ESC with the
integrated slide mount, or mounted elsewhere with double-
sided foam tape.
1. Install the pinion gear for your vehicle (not included) on the
motor shaft with blue thread locking compound. Verify the
pinion is spaced correctly for your vehicle to fully mesh with the
spur gear.
NOTICE: Verify the mounting screws do not protrude more than
3mm into the motor or the motor may be permanently damaged.
2. Mount the motor with the 3mm motor mounting screws
provided with your vehicle and set the gear mesh.
3. Connect the red power connectors together and the black
power connectors together between the ESC and the motor.
4. If you need to reverse the motor direction, reverse the power
connections.

When using a new ESC it is important to calibrate it so the ESC
matches the throttle range on your transmitter. If you install a new
radio system, or make changes to the throttle/brake values in your
transmitter, you must redo the ESC Calibration Process. Failure
to calibrate the ESC to your radio system will result in the ESC
not working correctly. Set the Fail Safe on your radio to a neutral
position to ensure the motor stops in the event of a signal loss.
1. Power ON the transmitter, and begin with throttle values at
100% for dual rates and travel and at neutral for trim and
sub-trim.
Verify there are no ABS braking functions activated before
proceeding with calibration.
For transmitters without an LCD, turn the D/R knob to the max
setting, and center the throttle trim.
2. Connect a battery to the ESC.
3. Press and hold the programming button on the switch case,
power on the ESC.
The red LED on the ESC will ash, and the motor will beep.
Release the programming button.
The ESC will enter the programming mode if the programming
button is not released within 3 seconds.
4. With the throttle trigger and trim in the neutral position, press
and release the programming button. The red LED will ash
once, and the motor will emit 1 tone.
5. Pull the throttle trigger to full throttle. Press and release the
programming button. The red LED will ash twice, and the
motor will emit 2 tones.
6. Push the throttle trigger to full reverse. Press and release the
programming button. The red LED will ash 3 times, and the
motor will emit 3 tones.
7. Power OFF the system with the ON/OFF switch.
8. Power ON the system with the ON/OFF switch. The system is
ready for operation
TIP: Beeps from the motor may be quiet and difcult to hear, use
the LED status to help verify settings.
