Installation & Connection
Connect the ESC, motor, receiver, battery and servo according to the wiring diagram below (Picture 1/2). Three wires from the ESC to the motor have no polarity, so you can connect them freely. Please recheck all the connections and ensure they are correctly connected before proceeding to step 2. (And you may find it’s necessary to swap two wires if the motor runs in reverse.)
For safety, please always keep the propeller away from human body or any other objects.
Red color input wire is positive pole, Black color input wire is negative pole.
1) Picture 1 is for Seaking-30A-V3, Seaking-60A-V3 and other ESCs that work with one LiPo battery pack; that is a wiring diagram with 1 battery pack.
2) Picture 2 is for Seaking-120A-V3, Seaking-180A-V3, Seaking-130A-HV-V3(without switch) and other ESCs that may work with two LiPo battery packs; that is the wiring diagram with 2 battery packs.

FAQ
During the Starting-up Process
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. No power was supplied to the ESC. |
1. Check if all ESC & battery connectors have been well soldered or firmly connected. |
2. The ESC switch was damaged. |
2. Replace the broken switch. |
3. Backward installation of batteries. |
3.Disconnect the battery immediately, return the ESC to its manufacturer for repair if it's damaged. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. The battery voltage was beyond the normal operationg voltage range of the ESC. |
1. Check the battery voltage. |
2. The ESC temperature was above 80℃ when it was powered on. |
2. Check if the water cooling system functions well or change another ESC with high(er) Amperage. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
The neutral throttle value stored on your ESC might be different from the current value stored on the transmitter. |
Move the throttle trigger/stick to the neutral position, recalibrate the throttle range. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. The ESC didn't detect any throttle signal. |
1. Check if the throttle cable has been plugged into the wrong channel or reversely plugged into the TH channel on the receiver and the transmitter has been switched on. |
2. The built-in BEC was damaged. |
2. Return the ESC to its manufacturer for repair. |
In Operation
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. The throttle signal was lost. |
1. Consult with transmitter manufacturer, or change another transimtter that can control longer distance/wider range. |
2. The LVC protection was activated. |
2. Change another battery. If the new one is a NiMH pack, then please disable the LVC protection. |
3. The ESC Thermal protection was activated; the Green LED on the ESC flashed a short, single flash that repeats. |
3.Continue to use it after it cools down or change a pinion with fewer teeth, a motor with low KV rating to reduce load. |
4. The Over-current protection was activated; the Green LED on the ESC flashed a short, triple flash that repeats. |
4. The load was too heavy, please reduce the load or change another ESC with higher Amperage. |
5. The Green on the ESC flashed a short, quadruple flash that repeats to indicate that the ESC was damaged. |
5. Return the ESC to the factory for repair. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. Poor contact between the ESC and motor connections. |
1. Check if gold-plated connectors are loose or poorly soldered. |
2. The ESC/motor was damaged. |
2. Run some tests with another ESC/motor (ensure it functions well before tests) to see if the ESC/motor is broken and then return the unit to its manufacturer for repair. Please test with small throttle amount(s) first, increase the amount after you ensure everything works normally to avoid damaging device(s) again. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. Poor discharing capability of the pack. |
1. Change another pack with great discharging capability. |
2. The RPM of the motor was too high, or the FDR was too low. |
2. Change a low-speed motor, or increase the FDR. |
3. The ESC/motor was damaged. |
3. Run some tests with another ESC/motor (ensure it functions well before tests) to see if the ESC/motor is broken and then return the unit to its manufacturer for repair. Please test with small throttle amount(s) first, increase the amount after you ensure everything works normally to avoid damaging device(s) again. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. Didn't calibrate the throttle range properly. |
1. Recalibrate the throttle range. |
2. Didn't set the "running mode" properly. |
2. Set the "running mode" to "FWD/REV" or factory default. |
3. The ESC was damaged. |
3. Return the ESC to its manufacturer for repair. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
Connected the ESC & motor wires incorrectly. |
Swap any two wire connections between the ESC and the motor. |
Relevant Settings
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. Reversely plugged the programming cable into the port on program box or plugged the programming cable into the wrong port on program box. . |
1. Refer to the silkscreen mark beneath/above the program port on the program box and plug the programming cable in. |
2. Reversely plugged the programming cable into the port on ESC or plugged the programming cable into the wrong port on ESC. |
2. There is a separate programming port on the ESC , please refer to the coressponding marks and connect the ESC to a prorgram box/card via the programming cable. |
3. Something wrong with the ESC or the program box. |
3. Run some tests with another ESC/program box (ensure it functions well before tests) to see if the ESC/program box is broken and then return the unit to its manufacturer for repair. |
Possible Cause(s) | Solution(s) |
1. The throttle cable was not plugged into the right channel but other channel like ST channel. |
1. Plug the throttle cable into the channel marked with "TH" letters on the receiver. |
2. The throttle cable was reversely plugged into the channel. |
2. Check the corrensponding mark on the receiver and then plug in the throttle cable correctly. |
