How to install the plugs of ESC to the electric starter and related circuit?
The Pro version of the EPHIL engine come with electric starter, and the configuration includes an individually wrapped ESC (as shown in the image).
The main function of an ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) is to adjust the speed of the brushless motor of electric starter with control signal. In order to use the electric starter, a good ESC is a necessary part.
The following are the basic parameters of EPHIL ESC：
Input Voltage: 11V - 16.8V (3S-4S LiPo)
Cont. Current: 40A
Peak Current: 60A
Size: 60mm× 25 mm× 8mm
Weight: 42.5g
Power Cord: XT60 plug
The following diagram is the circuit installation regards to an ESC.
It's worth noting that a yellow wire next to the ESC signal wire was used bby developers to write programs into PCB or modify them later. The plug of the yellow wire will not be used when installing the circuit!
Also notes：
1, It is necessary to use an independent lithium battery to power the ESC and electric starter. Recommend using a 4S battery with XT60 power plug, capacity would be 650 mAh -1550 mAh.
2, Make sure that the positive and negative poles and wiring colors are correctly matched (red wire: positive pole; black wire: negative pole) when connecting the ESC signal plug to the reveiver.
3, Make sure to use cable ties or tapes to secure the wires to prevent loosening.
4, For the first time using the EPHIL electric starter. Turn on the corresponding switch on the remote controller for 1-3 seconds.If you observe the propeller rotating counterclockwise (when facing to the aircraft), it indicates that the circuit is installed correctly. Otherwise, immediately cut off the power to the ESC, then interchange the connection of any two wires between the motor and the ESC, and try again.
