NOTE 3: You should NEVER disconnect the red receiver wire on the Hydra Ice2 HV200™ ESC. It does not have an integrated BEC so all wires
must be in place for proper controller operation. Disconnecting the red wire will render the controller inoperable.
NOTE 4: Always power your radio transmitter before powering up the receiver and/or the ESC. Some receivers with failsafe features or
Spektrum receiver units that are not bound on receiver power up are entirely capable of causing the arming sequence to occur and command
the ESC to drive the motor. Always keep the boat on a stand and clear of body parts when the ESC is powered.
NOTE 5: Always perform a range check at full, half, and zero throttle before operating your model with any new speed controller!
NOTE: When setting LiPo cutoff voltage follow your battery manufacturer’s recommendations!
Castle Creations is not responsible for damage to batteries due to improper cutoff voltage.
