I appreciate the time and effort you put in here and just wanted to say thank you. After a few initial mistakes I had it figured it out and it worked exactly as you showed.
No problem! It's definitely not explained very well in the instructions. That's made evident with how many views this video has compared to the number of videos I have and how many subscribers. 😂
I just bought it ...to use @ 2s on 1/10 touring cars like V100 Vaterra, TT01 Tamiya, Sparrowhawk VX Thundertigher... all about 3300 to 4000 KV sensored motors.... Thanks for the instructions....
Know you said that you "don't care", but I "liked" your video anyway!..Main reason, for me at least, was the simple fact that mine didn't come with any type of manual!..Been sit'n on this esc for about 2½ years and just decided to put it in a new build, with no programming card or instruction manual!..Your video was a definite migraine eliminator!..Lol🤣 #MuchAppreciated!..😎👍🏾#GreatPDFdownload!..📲
I have this optical similar 120a with Hobbyking rebranding but has no set button. But I think I need to change the timing. Der motor gets hot without load when it runs for 1 minute
Well at least you were able to program it and I assume drive the car around. Having to wait is lame.... Lol. But once you have the programming card, you'll never want to go back to this method. the programming cards make it so much easier.
Just ordered one of these, and I’m so happy I found your video. Thanks man! Got it for a sensed motor, that’s going into a 1/8th scale crawler? Looking forward to the crawler setting. 👍👊😎🍻
Thanks Kevin. I am trying to get a TSKY 35A working. It appears to work differently to your 120 unit. The unit does not beep and the instructions provided in your link dont seem to work with this unit. The red/green leds behave differently. Have spent ages trying to get the throttle calibrated. Any ideas please? Thanks alot
No. The ESC shouldn't get hot if it's off. If it does, there's probably an issue with it. It should only get warm with in use. Even being on and idle it should still stay cool to the touch. If you got it recently, I'd consider sending it back and getting a replacement.
Do you have the link for the chart? I just got this esc, will be installing it soon. The description says it has turbo timing, but I didn't see that listed in the chart on your phone. Did the esc seem to have more parameters then the chart?
Did you download the file that I linked in the description? That has what each beep means. As for turbo timing, I didn't see anything about that but there is a timing option that can be increased or decreased. I assume that's the same thing.
Yeah other people online mentioned you could use the programming card. It's just extra money. Lol. But if you change settings often, it may be worth the investment.
Yeah I wouldn't recommend 3s unless you have it in a low load application. Putting it in something like a slash would likely burn it up quickly. I'd only recommend this ESC if you only plan on running 2S.
How long did it last I bought my son one waited 2 weeks to get it and it didn't even make it thru a single 2's battery. Never got even warm. Running a 4200kv motor
@@Kmcornell23 I question if you get lo kv ... the motor has low rpm on 3s and is not pulling much amps ... if I had a higher KV motor I could get at least some speed out of the system .... as such why are you afraid to use 3s?
@@Kmcornell23 cool I just ordered one and a cheap 3800kv for my son's pede hopefully they both do ok lol my pede has the castle sidewinder 3 he's trying to keep up with mine 😂😂
No actually. I wouldn't expect amazing quality though. Like if your motor is rated too high, you COULD burn it up. I would just suggest to only use it in 1/10th scale cars and don't gear it too high. As long as you aren't too hard on it, it should be fine. I was already giving thing thing hell in this Rustler and it took it just fine. Honestly if I needed another ESC, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one, especially with the price.
@@Kmcornell23 oh okay yeah I might buy one for my 4x4 arrma mega I have the castle motor 5700 kv I'm going to gear it 17t pinion and 90 tooth spur does it handle 3s just fine?
@@Kmcornell23 my throttle is faster in reverse (that’s why I’m at this video), I’m running it with a sensor so I can’t just reverse the plugs, can I change the throttle driection by using the throttle limits?
@@anthonymiller6696 I'm not sure if you can do that or not but you SHOULD be able to swap the A and C wires around. B has to be connected to B though. Or just run it without the sensor. It worked fine for me without it.
This ESC is like sub $20... What did you expect? It works great for low powered vehicles on 2s, that's about it. I wouldn't recommend for 3s or things like 4x4's with high gear ratios. What I WOULD recommend it for is something like a 2wd rustler or slash on 2s. You could do a 4x4 but you'd want a decently low gear ratio.
@@Kmcornell23 Thank you and i did make sure it was on the second setting for forward and reverse w/ break and still no reverse. :( Just got in the hobby and i am not having fun....this sucks. I have two cars now and both are broke after just a few runs and NO crashes. 750$ in and i just don't know what to do.

Good to hear!
Thanks. Ive been trying to work it out all day.
No problem! It's definitely not explained very well in the instructions. That's made evident with how many views this video has compared to the number of videos I have and how many subscribers. 😂
@@Kmcornell23 🤣 I still need to get the reverse going
Thank you! Just looked for hours after the information in your video. You are the best 💪🏼
Glad I could help!

Thanks for the instructions....
So helpful. I wrestled with that stupid esc forever till I found this video.
No problem! That's why I made the video.
Thanks a million for sorting this out and posting it! I had one of these that wasn't calibrated, your instructions worked perfectly.
Good to hear! I'm surprised how many people have viewed this video to be honest.

Yessir it did!..😁👍🏾
Thanks mate! you helped 1 person here, good job :)
Glad I could help!
if you have the program card you can install the xerun 120A firmware
I have this optical similar 120a with Hobbyking rebranding but has no set button. But I think I need to change the timing. Der motor gets hot without load when it runs for 1 minute
Do you no what to do if you don’t have the little set button beside the on and off switch
Sorry, no idea then.
Thank you Kevin for your well explained informative video,,that properly got me out the dark
Hey no problem. I know how frustrating it can be when something doesn't work and you don't know why.
Thanks a bunch man, worked perfectly, and here I was already waiting for the programming card to come in the mail, now I don't need it lol
Well at least you were able to program it and I assume drive the car around. Having to wait is lame.... Lol. But once you have the programming card, you'll never want to go back to this method. the programming cards make it so much easier.
I have to say thanx for the info and link do appreciate you taking the time ti help info spot on thanx again
Ty you helped me as well mine is the same esc but unbranded will go thru and set my points thank you so much man
You definitely helped more than one person!
Apparently so. Lol
Thanks for the effort bro. It’s appreciated 👊🏼
saved me a program card. many thanks!
Just ordered one of these, and I’m so happy I found your video. Thanks man! Got it for a sensed motor, that’s going into a 1/8th scale crawler? Looking forward to the crawler setting. 👍👊😎🍻
No problem! Hopefully the sensored setup works for you. I've never ran one myself.

ohhh! muchas gracias! too helpful, thx from chile...
Thanx a lot. It was great help :-)
Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Do you find when you have the battery connected the esc gets hot even when it is turned off?
No. The ESC shouldn't get hot if it's off. If it does, there's probably an issue with it. It should only get warm with in use. Even being on and idle it should still stay cool to the touch. If you got it recently, I'd consider sending it back and getting a replacement.
Thank you
Thank YOU Good SIr!! Much Much Appreciated
Hey, no problem!
Thank you,hoping I can get reverse to work on mine.....
Thank you so much dude!
Thank you my friend😊👍
My esc is flash n red then blue. Can you help

Hi Kevin for mine reserve is forward how do I reverse the settings please
Swap 2 of the motor wires on the ESC or program the controller to flip forward and reverse.
I use the tsky 120amp esc it works good look at the label and you can use a hobbywing program card
Yeah other people online mentioned you could use the programming card. It's just extra money. Lol. But if you change settings often, it may be worth the investment.
Thank You a lot!
No problem. I'm glad it helped!
I just installed one of these. Fyi it does not like 3s. It has stopped powering the transmitter. Fan still runs tho so I'm not sure what happened
Yeah I wouldn't recommend 3s unless you have it in a low load application. Putting it in something like a slash would likely burn it up quickly. I'd only recommend this ESC if you only plan on running 2S.
Is replacing the mosfets possible
How long did it last I bought my son one waited 2 weeks to get it and it didn't even make it thru a single 2's battery. Never got even warm. Running a 4200kv motor
Mine is still running. Maybe you got a dud?
@@Kmcornell23 maybe or it's geared too high 90/21
THANK. YOU.
No problem!
Does the esc survived
Olá amigo tenho algumas duvidas pode me ajudar?
Anyone know if 4s is a option with this ? says 3s wondered if I could do 4s have a small low kv mtr needs 4s .....???
No. It's only designed for 3s and to be honest, I'd only recommend 2s. You could probably do 3s on a low kv motor but personally I wouldn't.
I just have a 3s and I am afraid for used in 3s?????
@@Kmcornell23 I question if you get lo kv ... the motor has low rpm on 3s and is not pulling much amps ... if I had a higher KV motor I could get at least some speed out of the system .... as such why are you afraid to use 3s?
Good Look how do I connect to a sensored motor
The same way you'd connect a sensorless motor, you just also have the sensor cable plugged in.
My tsky 120a make my motor go backward when I turn it on
Swap any 2 of the motor wires and it'll go forwards as long as you aren't using a sensored motor.
@@Kmcornell23 I don’t want to Risk it mind if I send you the links of my items
@@Kmcornell23 it worked but either my battery’s dead or its sensor and shuts off I think my battery I haven’t charged in 3 weeks
Program card does not work and now I cant get into set mode
Yeah this was to alleviate using the program card.
How much volts it can take
It's rated for 3s (11.1v) but I don't recommend 3s at all. Only run 2s (7.4v) if you want it to last.
@@Kmcornell23 thx so much
Is this the same esc that says enjoy myself on the fan anyone 🤷
Yes it is!
@@Kmcornell23 cool I just ordered one and a cheap 3800kv for my son's pede hopefully they both do ok lol my pede has the castle sidewinder 3 he's trying to keep up with mine 😂😂
Have you had any problems with that esc so far
No actually. I wouldn't expect amazing quality though. Like if your motor is rated too high, you COULD burn it up. I would just suggest to only use it in 1/10th scale cars and don't gear it too high.

@@rigobertoortiz6535 then I would stay with 2S, 3S could be too much for this cheap esc
@@rigobertoortiz6535 I haven't tried 3s but 2s works great.
My car is stuck at full throttle now...
Sounds like you need to recalibrate your throttle limits.
@@Kmcornell23 got it haha, I forgot to hold down and press the button, I do have a question though
@@Kmcornell23 my throttle is faster in reverse (that’s why I’m at this video), I’m running it with a sensor so I can’t just reverse the plugs, can I change the throttle driection by using the throttle limits?

And that are race legal
No reverse
Are you asking a question?

i can't get my reverse to work :(
There is an option to turn reverse off if you look through the options. Make sure you select the one with break AND reverse.
