Get my ESC working
« on: February 04, 2010, 08:11:58 PM »
I just soldered everyting, plugged all wires, turned my radio on. Servo works, but ESC doesn't work.
First time I have a Xcelorin Losi9500 ESC and don't know to get it working.

Turning the ESC ON, I have a blue and yellow solid lights.

Someone can help please.

Isn't there a thing in the manual for initial setup? You need to boot the ESC in such a way to go to setup mode, I imagine.

Typically, you boot an ESC with the one-touch button down until light changes or blinks, then you follow the instructions - set the neutral, full throttle, then brakes. Isn't it like this for the Losi?

1) turn on transmitter
2) Hold the little red button on the on switch, then turn on the ESC
3) Go Full Throttle until you see green light
4) Go full brake until you see red light
5) Return throttle to neutral, blue light comes on.
6) Turn ESC off, Turn it back on.

Also make sure the sensor wire is in good

While doing it, I only get yellow solid light. Nothing else.

Sorry, when you turn the ESC on and it turns Yellow, release the red button. I think it should work even if it's held in though. I can't check mine since it burned up lol :)
