Programming the Titan ESC via
Transmitter Stick
l
For
Tx stick programming, the motor serves as the speaker
- so connect your brushless motor to the Titan ESC first.
l
Remove
the propeller from the motor before starting programming!
l
Futaba
Transmitters should have the throttle set to servo REVERSE before using the
Titan ESC.
l
Connect
the Titan 90 Throttle connector to the correct channel on your receiver
l
Switch
on the transmitter and set the throttle
stick to full throttle.
l
Connect
a 4.8V Receiver flight pack to receiver with proper polarity
l
Connect
the flight battery pack to TITAN ESC with proper polarity (never reverse
RED/BLACK wires!)
l
Wait
for 5 seconds; you’ll hear these tones __ -- when setup mode is entered.
l
Follow the tones listed below for each programming
function.
l
When
you hear the tones for your desired function, pull the throttle down, then
you’ll hear confirmation tone. The setting is now memorized. You can only change one setting at a time, if
you need to change more settings, disconnect the motor battery pack and wait 5
seconds, and repeat the procedure for next setting.
It is really very easy
to program the Titan Controllers via transmitter stick. To familiarize
yourself with the ESC, let it go through all the tones once, as you follow the
text below.
Brake Mode On/Off
To change brake mode, pull the
throttle stick within 5 seconds of first setup mode tones __ --
After changing the brake mode, the ESC responds with these confirmations:
Brake mode changed to OFF _ - (double tone, rising)
Brake mode changed to ON _ (single tone)

7S to 10S continues as above, with 7 beeps for 7S, 8 beeps for 8S, etc…
Low Voltage Cutoff Behavior
If the motor battery pack drops to
the programmed cut-off voltage, the controller will reduce the motor speed or stop
the motor, depending on the setting below, to ensure that there is enough
power for the receiver and servos. You can resume full power by setting
throttle to full stop for a moment and return to full throttle, but remember that it’s time to land your
model!
Soft Auto-Cut (reduce rpm): - _ - _ - _ -
_ - _ (normal for sport models)
Hard Auto-Cut (full stop): _ - _ - _ - _
- _ - (normal for gliders)

Soft start (Acceleration)
When gearbox drive system is used
it is highly recommended to enable the Soft start.
Disable the soft start function
when direct drive system is used or being in speed competition
Enable: V V V V V
Timing
(advance timing)
The controller
has three timing modes; Automatic works for ALL types of
brushless motors. But for some high-pole-count or homemade brushless motors, you
may want to try hard timing for optimal efficiency and power.
Auto 2~30 degrees: -
- - - - (8, 15, and 22 deg also available via Emeter or PC
programming)
Soft 2 degrees: --
-- -- -- --
Hard 30 degrees: --- --- --- --- ---
The controller has two switching
frequency modes. The default 8 kHz works well with almost all motors, but you
may see a gain in efficiency at 16 kHz setting for high-pole-count motors such
as Hyperion Z Series Outrunners.

CAUTIONS!
·
The default setting for battery type is “8S Lithium”. If
you are using a different voltage or NiMH/NiCd packs, you MUST program the
battery type before using the Titan ESC.
·
NEVER reverse the
polarity from battery to Titan ESC! Be
careful, please.
·
Futaba transmitters should have throttle channel set to “reverse”.
Always test the Titan ESC with your transmitter and receiver before actual use.
·
When testing, be sure the motor is properly mounted, without propeller attached.
·
Be sure to check that no one is using your frequency and check
range before flight.
·
Always position yourself behind a spinning propeller, not in front.
·
Switch off the Titan ESC AND disconnect the battery pack
immediately after your flight has ended.
·
RC aircraft power systems are dangerous. Please act accordingly.
Warranty
Hyperion
Titan brushless speed controllers are fully guaranteed against defects in
material or workmanship for 12 months from date of purchase. The warranty does NOT cover damage to
reverse-polarity connection of the battery, over-spec use, water or crash
damage, nor any other claim not arising from a defect in materials or
assembly. You must contact your selling dealer with details of the problem before
making a return. In most cases, the
problem is an issue with radio or controller setup, and can easily be resolved
at no expense to you. Controllers
returned without notice in which defects are not found will only be returned to
the sender at his expense.
Crash, water, or reverse-polarity damaged Hyperion Titan ESC may be exchanged
with your seller for a 40% discount on new replacement, from manufacturers
suggested retail.
Many
Happy Flights!
