Furitek MicroSilk 2025 Brushless Power System Instruction Manual

1. Lebihview

The Furitek MicroSilk 2025 is a specialized brushless power system designed for 1/24 and 1/18 scale RC crawlers, including the Axial SCX24, TRX-4M, and Redcat Ascent-18. This system combines the MicroPython brushless Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) with the high-performance Mini KMD V2 brushless motor to provide enhanced power, precision, and smooth operation in a compact form factor.

Ciri-ciri utama termasuk:

• Sistem Kuasa Tanpa Berus: Offers improved efficiency, torque, and durability compared to brushed systems.
• Upgraded Mini KMD V2 Motor: Engineered for high torque, smooth operation, and efficient power delivery, suitable for challenging terrains.
• Reka Bentuk Ultra-Kompak: Both the MicroPython ESC and Mini KMD V2 motor are designed to fit seamlessly into the limited space of compatible RC models.
• Upward Wire Configuration: The MicroPython ESC features a unique wire layout to maximize space efficiency.
• Powerful 5A BEC: A built-in 5A Battery Eliminator Circuit (BEC) ensures reliable power delivery to any servo.
• Smoothness and Control: Advanced brushless algorithms provide precise crawling and throttle response.

2. Maklumat Keselamatan

This product is not intended for use by children. Adult supervision is required during installation and operation. Always ensure proper ventilation and avoid operating the system in wet conditions unless explicitly stated as waterproof. Disconnect the battery when not in use to prevent accidental operation or damage.

3.3 Receiver Binding and Calibration

Before first use, ensure your receiver is properly bound to your transmitter. Refer to your transmitter and receiver manual for specific binding procedures. Once bound, calibrate the ESC with your transmitter's throttle range according to the ESC's instructions (typically involves holding full throttle, then full brake, then neutral during power-up).

4. Arahan Operasi

Once the system is installed and calibrated, power on your transmitter first, then connect the battery to the ESC. The ESC will initialize. You can then control your RC crawler using the transmitter. The MicroSilk system is designed for smooth and precise throttle control, ideal for crawling over obstacles.

4.1 Advanced Tuning (Optional)

The MicroPython ESC may offer advanced tuning options via a dedicated mobile application. This allows for fine-tuning parameters such as drag brake, throttle curves, and motor timing to optimize performance for specific terrains or driving styles. Refer to the Furitek website or app documentation for detailed instructions on using the tuning app.

5. Penyelenggaraan

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your MicroSilk system:

• Pembersihan: Periodically clean the ESC and motor to remove dirt, dust, and debris. Use a soft brush or compressed air. Avoid using liquids directly on electronic components.
• Pemeriksaan Sambungan: Regularly inspect all electrical connections for looseness or damage. Secure any loose connections.
• Pemeriksaan Motor: Check the motor for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure the motor shaft spins freely.
• Gear Mesh: If applicable, ensure proper gear mesh between the motor pinion and the transmission gears to prevent premature wear.

6. Penyelesaian masalah

If you encounter issues with your MicroSilk system, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Tiada Kuasa:
  • Check battery charge level and connections to the ESC.
  • Ensure the ESC is switched ON.
• Motor Not Responding or Erratic Behavior:
  • Verify the receiver is correctly bound to the transmitter.
  • Confirm the ESC signal cable is plugged into the correct channel (Channel 2) on the receiver.
  • Check motor wire connections to the ESC.
  • If the motor is cogging or overheating, check for mechanical binding in the drivetrain or incorrect ESC settings (e.g., drag brake too high, motor timing).
• Bluetooth Connectivity Issues (for app tuning):
  • Ensure the ESC is powered on and within range of your mobile device.
  • Try restarting the app and the ESC.
  • Check your device's Bluetooth settings.
• Perkakasan hilang:
  • If any small parts, such as mounting screws (e.g., M2x12 for motor mount), are missing from the package, contact the seller or Furitek support for assistance.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, contact Furitek customer support for further assistance.
