2. Installation
Battery ESC
Fitting the heat-shrink sleeve over the sensor:
· Apply the product label as shown.
· Connect the seven-pin balancer adapter to ensure
that the balancer socket is still accessible when the
heat-shrink sleeve is in place.
· Slip the heat-shrink sleeve over the sensor, and
position it in such a way that it overlaps the balancer
socket by about 5 mm.
· Shrink the sleeve using a suitable heat gun.
· Take care not to subject the sensor to excessive
heat when shrinking the sleeve.
· You may need to cut away a little of the heat-shrink
sleeve when it is in place, to ensure that the
balancer socket is still accessible.
The following steps must be carried out before
the system is used for the rst time:
Connecting the measurement resistor:
(LiPo SAVER 2...6S 60A only)
The sensor has to be looped between the ight battery
and the speed controller, as shown in the wiring dia-
gram (Fig. 1). The unit must be looped into the positive
wire, and the two joints must be soldered. Please note
that the soldered joints are to be carried out with great
care, as the operational security of the system relies
upon them. Please note the following points:
· The current sensor must not be connected at this
stage.
· Use electronic-grade solder exclusively.
Do not use acid-based ux.
· Heat the parts adequately, but do not apply exces-
sive heat.
· Use a soldering iron of adequate capacity (wattage).
· Ensure that all soldered joints are technically sound.
In the worst case, defective or poorly executed
soldered joints may result in the loss of your model!
· If you are unsure of your soldering skills, we
recommend that you ask an experienced person to
help you.
· For continuous currents of 60 A you need to use
a connecting cable of the AWG10 type (5.26mm²)
or larger cross-sectional area. If possible, solder
the cable to the top and bottom of the solder pads,
taking care to use the full area of the pads
(Figs. 2 + 3).
