Connecting the Battery
The	MSC-12L	comes	pre-wired	with	an	EC3	connector.	Use	battery	packs	from	
4-cell	(4.8-volt)	to	7-cell	(8.4-volt)	sub-C	size	battery	packs	or	with	2S	LiPo	
packs	(7.4-volt).
1.	Be	sure	the	on/off	switch	is	in	the	“off”	position.
2.		Connect	a	fully	charged	battery	pack	to	the	speed	control’s	battery	connector.
Adjusting the Transmitter
1.	Set	the	“throttle	reversing”	switch	to	the	NORMAL	position.
2.	Set	the	“throttle	trim”	to	the	CENTER	position.
Speed Control Programming
Note: While in the programming mode, no power is applied to the motor.
Battery	Selection:	When	the	ESC	is	powered	on,	the	LED	will	be	flashing	for	2	
seconds	to	indicate	the	Selected	Battery	Type.	During	this	time	the	user	can	
press	the	button	to	toggle	between	LiPo	and	NiMH/NiCd	modes.	After	the	button	
has	been	pressed	(battery	type	selected),	the	LED	will	flash	for	2	more	seconds.
A.	Turn	on	ESC	and	push	button	once	within	2	seconds,	push	again	to	toggle	
between modes.
B.	Red	light	indicates	LiPo	mode	(with	6-volt	cutoff).
C.	Green	light	indicates	NiMH/NiCd	mode.
One-Touch Endpoint Setup
Note: Please be sure to set throttle trim settings to neutral before
performing an endpoint setup.
A. Hold button and turn on ESC until the Red/Green light comes on. Once on,
release button.
B. Pull trigger to full throttle position until the green light goes from flashing to
solid. Once solid, your forward endpoint is now set.
C. To set reverse endpoint, push the trigger into the full reverse
position	until	the	flashing	red	light	turns	solid.	At	this	point	your	reverse/brake	
endpoint	is	now	set.
D Return trigger to neutral setting. The green light will now be solid and you are
ready to go!
Selecting Speed Controller Modes
To	change	modes	on	your	MSC-12L	hold	the	setup	button	for	over	5	seconds	
while	in	neutral.	Once	you	find	desired	mode,	simply	release	the	button	and	you	
are ready for action.
			Forward/Reverse	mode—Solid	Green	LED
			Forward	Only	mode—Fast	Flashing	Green	LED
			Practice	mode—Slow	Flashing	Green	LED
			Crawler	mode*—Solid	Green	and	Red	LED
*NoTiCE: Crawler mode is for use in rock crawling vehicles only. Do not use
this	mode	with	your	1/10	XXX-SCB.Doing	so	may	damage	the	
vehicle.
