E-MAXX COMBO

ROOSTER E-Maxx COMBO

The ROOSTERS are the long standing benchmark in reliable

reversible speed controls for 6-7cell/mild-modified set-ups.

With two Roosters installed in your Traxxas E-Maxx using

the included Input Signal Y-Harness, the Rooster E-Maxx

Combo lets you hop-up your E-Maxx with the ability to

run standard 7.2V

(05 & 075 size) motors (stock Traxxas

motors not recommended)

. You also get the added benefit of

brakes before the engagement of reverse, and the Roosters

feature Novak’s Smart Braking Circuitry

that brings

the model to a slow speed before hitting reverse to save

your vehicle’s gearbox and reduce speed control heating.

These speed controls feature the original One-Touch Set-Up

(There’s nothing easier!), exclusive Polar Drive Technology

for the smoothest throttle response and improved radio

system performance, and Reverse Disable

Circuitry

that locks-out reverse for racing or forward only use.

Other features include built-in brake light circuitry to

power two high-intensity LEDs for enhanced realism

(available separately in the Novak Brake Light LED Kit

#5655), Radio Priority Circuitry

to maintain steering

control even after the battery has discharged, and dual-

level thermal protection.

STEP 1

CHANGING THE INPUT HARNESS

PRECAUTIONS

QUICK SET-UP

FOR DETAILED INFO. REFER TO STEPS 1 THRU 6

A. INSTALL SPEED CONTROLS

Use double-sided tape to mount ESCs in the rear tub of

E-Maxx.

For more details refer to Step 2.

B. CONNECT SPEED CONTROLS TO RECEIVER

Plug input signal harnesses of each ESC into the double

side of the Y-Harness. Plug single side of the Y-Harness

into the throttle channel

of receiver. If not using stock

E-Maxx receiver, make sure ESC signal harness has

proper wiring sequence.

Refer to Step 1 to change wiring.

C. CONNECT SPEED CONTROLS TO BATTERIES

Plug the JST/Tamiya connector from the first ESC into

one of the battery packs (6-7 cell @ 1.2 volts DC/cell).

Plug the second ESC into the other battery pack.

We found that connecting the left side ESC to the right side

motor & battery in the truck keeps excess wire to a minimum,

and you won’t have to tie wrap the wires to keep them

inside the truck and away from moving parts.

D.TURN ON TRANSMITTER POWER

Refer to Step 5 for transmitter adjustments.

E. TURN ON SPEED CONTROLS

Slide ON/OFF switches to the ON positions.

PRESS AND HOLD ESC 1’s ONE-TOUCH BUTTON

With the transmitter throttle in neutral position, press

and hold the One-Touch button on the first speed control

until the status LED turns solid red, then release.

PULL THROTTLE TO FULL-FORWARD POSITION

Hold until status LED turns solid green.

H.PUSH THROTTLE TO FULL-REVERSE POSITION

Hold until status LED blinks green, then return throttle

to neutral position. LED will then turn solid red indicating

proper programming and throttle is in neutral position.

•

WATER & ELECTRONICS DON’T MIX!

Do not

operate model in or around water. Never allow water,

moisture, or other foreign materials to get inside the ESC.

• USE NEUTRALLY TIMED MOTORS Using motors with

other than 0° timing will draw excess current in reverse,

and result in ESC overheating and premature motor wear.

Modified motors

(with adjustable end bells) timed to 0° or

Johnson/Mabuchi

(closed end bell) motors are recommended

• 6 or 7 CELLS ONLY Never use fewer than 6 or more than

7 cells (7.2-8.4 volts DC) in each main battery pack.

•

MOTOR CAPACITORS REQUIRED

Three 0.1µF (50V)

ceramic capacitors (included) must be properly installed

on every motor to prevent radio interference.

• ALWAYS USE HEAT SINKS Four heat sinks are factory-

installed on each Rooster, and must be used for maximum

cooling and performance.

• NO REVERSE VOLTAGE!

Reverse battery polarity can

damage speed control––Disconnect battery immediately.

• NO SCHOTTKY DIODES External Schottky diodes must

NOT be used with reversible speed controls. Using an

external Schottky diode will damage the ESC.

•

DON’T LET TRANSISTOR TABS TOUCH Never allow

separate transistor banks to touch each other or any exposed

metal. This will create a short circuit and damage the ESC.

• DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES Always disconnect the

battery pack from the speed control when not in use.

• TRANSMITTER ON FIRST

Turn on your transmitter before

the ESCs so you will have control of the radio equipment.

• DON’T GET BURNT

! Transistor tabs and the heat sinks

can get extremely hot, so be careful not to touch them

until they cool. Supply adequate air flow for cooling.

• INSULATE WIRES Always insulate exposed wiring with

heat shrink tubing to prevent short circuits.

Part #1855

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The Rooster speed controls come with the industry standard

input

harness connector. This connector works

with all

major radio brands. However, with some older style

receivers the sequence of the wires in the plastic connector

housing needs to be changed. This is an important step,

because the electronics inside the receiver may be damaged

if the wiring sequence is incorrect. Changing the wiring is

easily accomplished as described below.

JR • Hitec • New KO • Airtronics Z

If your receiver is a JR, Hitec, Futaba, new KO, or an

Airtronics Z (blue case) you do not need to change the

sequence of

the ESC's input harness wires.

New KO cases

have tabs on the input harness openings as in Figure 1.

• Insert the input plug into the receiver with the BLACK

wire toward the outside edge of the receiver case.

Old-style KO • Old-style Sanwa/Airtronics

If your receiver is an older KO or Sanwa/Airtronics, you

must change the sequence of the ESC's input harness

wires. Old Sanwa/Airtronics cases are black in color. Old

KO cases do not have the tab openings (See Figure 2).

• Interchange the red and black wires in the plug plastic

of the ESC's input harness as shown in Figure 3 below.

• Insert the input plug into the receiver with the RED wire

toward the outside edge of the receiver case.

FIGURE 3 With a small standard screwdriver, gently lift

the plastic prong until the wire and metal socket easily

slides out of the plastic housing. Repeat for each wire.

PRESS AND HOLD ESC 2’s ONE-TOUCH BUTTON

With the transmitter throttle in neutral position, press

and hold the One-Touch button on the second ESC

until the status LED turns solid red, then release.

PULL THROTTLE TO FULL-FORWARD POSITION

Hold until status LED turns solid green.

K. PUSH THROTTLE TO FULL-REVERSE POSITION

Hold until status LED blinks green, then return throttle

to neutral position. LED will then turn solid red indicating

proper programming and throttle is in neutral position.

L. CONNECT SPEED CONTROLS TO THE MOTORS

Use 7.2V (05 or 075 size) standard R/C motors

with 14 turns** or higher in the Traxxas E-Maxx.

Turn off speed controls then transmitter.

Plug the bullet connector on the YELLOW wire of the

first speed control to positive of the first motor.

Plug the bullet connector on the BLUE wire of the first

speed control

to negative of the first motor.

Plug the bullet connector on the YELLOW wire of the

second speed control to positive of the second motor.

Plug the bullet connector on the BLUE wire of the second

speed control to negative of the second motor.

Again, we found that connecting the left side ESC to the

right side motor & battery in the truck works best.

.KICK-UP A ROOST!

Turn on transmitter and then the speed controls.

**Rooster motor specification is 16 turns or higher (mild modified).

14 turns can be used with E-Maxx using available Traxxas gear ratios.
