Using a programming card or PC link cable: End-points can be set to specific values and/or switched between auto-calibrate and fixed end-points. 1.2 to 1.8ms) are often pre-programmed into the ESC at the factory.

Default settings that should work with most transmitters (eg. These settings are recorded in an eeprom, so the calibration only has to be done once. Manual Calibration: The ESC is put into calibration mode by starting at full throttle (>1.5ms), then going to low throttle (<1.5ms) after a few seconds. This procedure has to be followed each time the ESC is turned on. As the throttle is advanced above half way, the highest point reached so far is taken as 'full throttle'. Several methods may be used to 'calibrate' the ESC to a particular transmitter:-Īuto-calibrate: The ESC assumes that the initial pulse width received represents 'low throttle' (motor off) and records it as the low end-point.

Also, many transmitters have adjustable center and end-point settings. However it's not quite as simple as that, because ESC's are designed to work with a variety of radio control transmitters which may have slightly different pulse ranges. Most ESCs convert the servo pulse into into a linear PWM range.
