Motor/ESC Hook-up

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version


I recently purchased a TR 35-36 1100kv Motor and a Turnigy 40a sentry ESC.  The motor has  red,yellow, and black leads.  The ESC has three red leads labeled A,B, and C.  To connect the motor to the ESC, which leads go to which.  For example, do I connect the red motor lead to the A lead on the ESC and so forth?

	Connect the three motor wires to the speed controler. Colour does not matter. If the motor spins in reverse you only need to change over any two wires and it will turn the opposite way. Hope this helps. Eamonn.
