BATTERY ELIMINATOR CIRCUIT

PHOENIX SERIES (does not include Ice or HV models)

You must disable the onboard BEC when using greater than a

3s LiPo on Phoenix ESCs.*

PHOENIX ICE AND PHOENIX ICE LITE

Phoenix Ice and Ice Lite onboard BECs can be run to the

maxiumum rated voltage of the ESC. The maximum voltage

for the Phoenix Ice is 34V (8s) and the Phoenix Ice Lite is

25V (6s). Helicopters with blades larger than 425mm will

need to use an external BEC*. For more details visit www.

castlecreations.com/helisetups.

*Note: If you use a receiver battery pack or any form of an

external BEC, you MUST disconnect the RED WIRE on the

throttle cable for Phoenix, Phoenix Ice and Phoenix Ice Lite.

This does NOT include the Phoenix HV or Phoenix Ice2 HV.

PHOENIX ICE2 HV AND PHOENIX HV

Phoenix HV and Phoenix Ice2 HV controllers do not have

an integrated BEC. You must use an external battery or

BEC to power your receiver and servos. You should NEVER

disconnect the red throttle wire on the Phoenix HV or

Phoenix Ice2 HV ESCs.

HOW TO CONNECT YOUR PHOENIX

1. Add Your Battery Connector

You must attach a quality battery connector of your choice

to the red (+) and black (-) power wires. Solder the battery

connector to the wires.

ENSURE THAT THE POLARITY IS

CORRECT (red wire to battery red wire, black wire to

battery black wire).

Follow the instructions provided with

the battery connector.

2. Connect the Motor to your ESC

Cut the three (red, white & black) motor wires coming o

the ESC to the length you require. Solder the corresponding

connectors for your motor to the wires coming from the ESC,

or solder the motor wires directly to the motor leads on the

ESC. You may ﬁnd it convenient to temporarily connect the

motor leads to the ESC and test for proper rotation before

you permanently solder them. See “Reversing Rotation”

below.

3. Connect the ESC to Your Receiver

Connect the receiver lead (the three colored small wires with

a black plastic connector on the end) to the throttle channel

on your receiver. Do not connect a receiver battery pack to

the receiver, as the ESC will supply power to the receiver and

servos through the receiver connector.

Phoenix HV and Phoenix Ice2 HV (High Voltage)

controllers require the use of a separate BEC or receiver

pack to power your receiver and servos. Phoenix HV

Controllers DO NOT have an onboard BEC.

NOTE TO USERS WITH A FUTABA TRANSMITTER: You must

reverse the throttle channel signal on your transmitter.

Please refer to your Futaba instructions.
