Flipsky Dual FSESC6.6 Electronic Speed Controller User Manual

1. Introdução

The Flipsky Dual FSESC6.6 Plus is an advanced Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) designed for high-performance electric vehicles such as e-bikes, ESK8s, longboards, and DIY skateboarding projects. This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, configuration, and operation of your ESC.

2. Informações de segurança

• Compatibilidade de firmware: It is recommended to keep firmware 5.2 from the factory. New firmware upgrades may damage the ESC.
• PCB Protection: Do not remove the shrink wrap. This protects the PCB electronic components from impurities or metals, which could result in short circuits or ESC damage.
• Certifique-se de que todas as conexões estejam seguras e devidamente isoladas para evitar riscos elétricos.
• Always wear appropriate safety gear when operating electric vehicles.

6.1 Conexões de Fiação

Follow these steps to correctly connect the ESC to your system components:

1. Connect the motor phase wires (typically three thick wires) from the ESC to your motors.
2. Connect the hall sensor wires (smaller multi-pin connector) from the ESC to your motors, if applicable.
3. Connect the power switch button to the designated port on the ESC.
4. Connect the battery wires (red for positive, black for negative) to the main power input of the ESC.
5. Connect the remote receiver to the PPM or UART port on the ESC, depending on your remote type.
6. Connect any optional accessories such as brake lights, front lights, or horn to their respective ports on the ESC.

7. Instruções de operação

7.1 Operação de controle remoto

After successful VESC Tool configuration, you can operate your electric vehicle using a compatible remote control:

1. Ensure the remote control is paired with the ESC. Confirm the 'Control type' is UART and 'ESC Type' is FTESC on the remote's display.
2. Use the throttle gear to accelerate and brake. Pull down the throttle gear to activate the rear brake light.
3. Short press the remote's power button once to turn the front lights on or off.
4. Press the remote's power button twice quickly to activate or deactivate the horn.
