This is an instruction sheet for the Outcry ESC (Electronic Speed Control). This will cover basic questions about the ESC and how it works. If you have further questions about the ESC, Please contact our support line or use our forum. Details are shown on page 1 of this manual. The Outcry ESC has built in non-adjustable drag break. The ESC comes with a BEC (battery eliminator circuit). This allows you to get full power to the other electronics in your setup. This ESC is a simple Plug and Play unit. Use the equipped plugs and install to your electronics. Make sure your radio is plugged in, plug the battery into the ESC, and turn on your ESC. This should program everything and then your ESC should be ready to use. 1. ESC Plugs and wires A. You will notice the red wire to the receiver throttle input plug has been removed and heat shrink applied. This is to allow the BEC to apply full power to the receiver and other electronics in you setup. It is very important to leave the shrink wrap on the red wire. (removing the shrink wrap can cause damage to the ESC and your other electronics) The receiver plug will install into the throttle slot of your receiver. Please refer to your radio s owner manual for instructions on which slot to plug the throttle control plug into. B. The plug on your BEC is a standard receiver plug. This will plug into two different spots on your receiver. Either your Auxiliary or Battery slots. Refer to the owner s manual that came with your radio for these slots. C. The ESC will only have the two motor wires: One black and one red. These plug in to the motor. 2. Receiver plug installation We recommend you refer to your radios owner manual to help with this step. Plug the receiver throttle control plug in the throttle control slot of your receiver. Make sure the red wire with the heat shrink is up and out of the way. This is not supposed to be plugged into the receiver. We do not recommend removal of the fan from the ESC. viii
