Align 35A Brushless Motor Electronics Speed Controller RCE-BL35A User Manual

Product Feature
1. Small and compact PCB design for ease of installation
2. Large heatsink for great thermal performance
3. High compatibility to work with 98% brushless motors in the market
4. Ultra smooth motor start design to run with all kinds of brushless motors
5. The power inlet adapts Japanese made “Low ESR” capacitor in order to provide stable power source.
6. The BEC power outlet adapts a Japanese made specialty polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor. It provides better noise filtering capability than other BL ESC in the market, and moreover to give more stable performance of R/C receiver and BEC.
7. The BEC adapts dual TO-252 package regulators. It provides great thermal performance with 2A peak current.
8. The throttle has more than 200 steps resolution that provides great controlling sense.
Specification

1.Good tempeture slutation for working at the maximun current
2.Supporting motor types:2~10 polein/outrunner motors
3.Supporting maximun RPM: 2 poles->190,000 rpm : 6 poles ->630,000 rpm
4.Input voltage: 5.5V~16.8V(Lithium 2~4 cells/Ni-Mh 6~12 cells)
Feature options

1. Break option: 3 settings that include no break/soft break/hard break.

2. Electronic timing option: 3 settings that includes Low timing/Mid timing/High timing
    Generally, lower pole motors were recommended to use lower timing while higher poles to use higher timing. Higher timing gives more power at the expense of efficiency. Always check the current draw after changing the timing in order to prevent overloading of battery.

3. Battery protection option: 3 settings that include 70% / 65% / 60%
    The default setting is 65%. This option provides the battery from over-discharge. Please pay extra attention before you change this setting. You are at your own risk of damage the electronics device by over-discharge the battery and the controller. Any damage by over current of the controller is not covered by factory warranty.

             The following is the setting guideline as reference.

             For a 3-Cell Li-poly system
             4.2V (Single cell fully charged voltage) x 3 = 12.6V
             12.6V x 65% (Factory default) = 8.19V

             When the voltage of 3-cell battery drops to 8.19V, the ESC will be
             enable its battery protection. Then the power will be decreased by the
             ESC. The flyer should prepare for landing in time.

Note: this option is only suitable for the fully charge and good battery packs.

4. Thermal protection: When the ESC’s temperature raises to 80° C that causes by over current or improper airflow, the thermal protection will be enable. Then the power will be decreased by the ESC. The flyer should prepare for landing in time.

5. Safe power on alarm: When the flyer turns on the ESC power, it will automatically detect the transmitter signal. If the throttle stick was not at the minimum or maximum point for entering the “set up” mode, the motor will not be running. The alarm will be enabling at the same time.

6. Aircraft locator: When the aircraft was landing in an unexpected location, for example, a long grass field, the flyer could enable the aircraft locator by shut down the power of transmitter. When the ESC stops getting the signal from PPM receiver in 30 seconds, it will start to send alarm to  the motor. The alarm sound will help the flyer to locate the aircraft.
Set Up Mode

Set up mode: you need to firstly connect the ESC BEC connector to the throttle channel of the receiver. Please refer to the user manual of your radio system. The second step is to connect the 3 power-out signal pins to the brushless motor. Before your turn on the transmitter, please adjust the throttle stick to the maximum at full throttle position. Then you could connect the batter to the ESC. You will hear confirmation sounds as soon as your enter the Set Up mode. Please refer to the attached flow chart for details.

Throttle stick positions in Set Up mode: Set up mode includes three setting: Brake, Electronic Timing, Battery protection.Every setting has three options. Simply place the throttle stick in the highest, middle, and lowest positions for option setting. For example, first Brake Setting (hard): move the stick to the highest position. Then Timing Setting (mid): move the throttle stick in the middle position.
