MAD MAX2 140A HV 2-4S Brushless Sensored ESC, Bluetooth APP, 6.0/7.4/8.4V BEC for 1/10 RC Car

Overview

MAD MAX2 140A HV 2-4S brushless sensored ESC for 1/10 RC model car use. Supports sensor or sensorless square-wave control of brushless motors, with built-in Bluetooth for mobile APP parameter setting, data reading, and firmware upgrade.

Key Features

• Continuous current: 140A (with PWM-cycle current limiting to reduce pulse-current impact on the motor)
• Battery / power input: 2~4S LiPo (DC power supply use requires considering discharge and power recovery capability)
• Built-in Bluetooth: adjust ESC parameters, upgrade firmware, and observe motor operation data (data log + real-time data) via mobile APP
• BEC (switchable via mobile APP): 6.0V / 7.4V / 8.4V; 5A continuous, 10A short-term
• Fan control: fan turns on when temperature > 55C; turns off when temperature < 50C; fan power is cut if large current abnormality occurs
• Cooling design text: fan intelligent start/stop function (auto start at set temperature to reduce noise)
• Real-time recording: built-in real-time data recording functionality through the mobile APP
• Turbo timing: available (max support 26)
• Protection: low voltage, over voltage, throttle loss, abnormal braking, over temperature, etc.
• Waterproof level: IP67 (all-weather operation capability)
• XC BUS / X.BUS protocol: supports real-time control of ESC and reading operation data through bus (for automation/robot control or other programmed control)

Specifications

Configurable Items (via APP)

Connections

• Switch wire: red and black
• Throttle wire: red = BEC+, black = BEC-, white = throttle
• X.BUS wire: red = BEC+, brown = BEC-, yellow = X.BUS
• System diagram labels: motor, Hall sensing wire, Electronic Speed Controller (ESC), X.BUS, switch, receiver, battery

Setup

Start the process

1. Check whether the circuit is open, short circuit, or in poor contact.
2. Check whether the motor is stuck.
3. Plug in the power cable.
4. Turn on the power button.

When the battery prompt tone is heard (described in the Normal startup prompts), startup is normal. If the throttle is normal, throttle operation can proceed.

Set the throttle range

1. Keep the ESC off, move the throttle to the end point of reversal, then power up the ESC. Wait for red light and green light to stop flashing (about 5s).
2. Move throttle to the end point of forward within 1s and hold it. Wait for green light to stop flashing (waiting for green light off).
3. Move throttle to the neutral position within 1s and hold it. Wait for red light to stop flashing (waiting for red light off).
4. Success prompt repeats four times: (red light and green light on + motor beep "so, mi, do" + red/green lights off + 0.2s vacancy). Failure prompt: no signs, ESC powers on.

Bluetooth Naming Rule

The Bluetooth name format is: approximate model + "-" + ESC code ID. Example: "XC_E3-1C89" where "XC_E3" is the approximate model and "1C-89" is the hexadecimal code ID. Even if the name is changed, the ESC code ID remains to avoid duplicate names.

Recover Factory Parameters

Restore Bluetooth to factory settings

1. Connect ESC wire (white wire) to BEC+ (red wire).
2. Turn on ESC.
3. Disconnect from BEC when green light is off and red light is on.
4. Remove the short circuit.

When boot is activated, Bluetooth restores to factory value (password resets to 1234 and the name returns to factory state). Restart the ESC. If there is a hardware error, Boot can be activated this way to upgrade hardware.

Restore parameters to factory settings

Use the default button on the APP parameter page.

LED Status & Beep Instructions

Notes:
1) Red light matches long tone; green light matches short tone.
2) For saving power, all beeps last for 5 mins; if faults recover, it takes effect again in the next 5 mins.
3) "..." in light cue indicates repetition.

Precautions

1. Do not connect the ESC input wires DC+ and DC- in reverse. Reverse connection may damage the ESC; warranty service is not provided in this case.
2. If a Hall sensor is used, check the motor phase wires and Hall wiring.
3. For motors without temperature sensors, long-term high-power operation may cause burnout.
4. Some motors cannot support high speed due to mechanical structure; forcing higher speed may damage the motor.
5. If not used for more than 1 hour, unplug the power wires of the ESC.
6. After modifying connection lines, check the circuit carefully before use. Open the throttle slowly and confirm there are no errors before normal operation.
