Precautions
Ni-Cd batteries
To avoid the risk of fumes, fire and burns
Improper use of the Ni-Cd battery is very dangerous. The battery must
be handled carefully. Incorrect wiring or short-circuiting of wiring may
cause fire or fumes. Before connecting or disconnecting the battery to or
from the ESC, be sure to turn off the power switch of the ESC.
When the battery is not in use, disconnect it from the ESC or charger,
and store it in a suitable location with wires and screws removed.
WARNING To avoid the risk of fumes, fire and burns
Incorrect wiring may cause fire or fumes that can damage both the ESC
and battery beyond repair. To avoid the risk of accidents, do not modify
wiring by yourself, even though the ESC is fitted with terminals. Take the
product to KEYENCE instead.
WARNING To avoid the risk of fumes, fire and burns
Make sure to fit the included capacitor to the motor to be used.
Otherwise, the ESC may become damaged due to malfunction resulting
from electrical noise.

Caution
NOTE
WARNING Information for preventing serious injury
Make sure to carefully read and understand the important warning
messages in this Instruction Manual before commencing to use the
product.
WARNING To avoid the risk of fumes, fire and burns
Electricity flows through the metal upper part of the ESC.Therefore, take
care to avoid contacting this with conductors and other metal parts or
the carbon chassis of the ESC.Take the same care even after a
radiating fin is installed, since radiating fins conduct electricity.
Radiating fins
To prevent accidents and product damage
Do not modify the ESC in any way. Use it only for its intended purpose.
Keep the ESC away from flames or heat. Avoid splashing any liquid,
such as water, on the ESC.
Proper operation

Features
• The RAPIDA series feature the latest MOS-FET (SOP) components,
which allow powerful braking as well as a forward function.
• Advanced control circuitry using a 4-layer board that allows
high-density mounting of electronic components.
• Utilizes an MPRS*1 system, which has proved very successful in the
A-01 Series in large-current circuits, for compactness and
high-performance.
• With AGCS*2, Schottky diodes are no longer necessary, and motor
voltage loss during pulse drive is reduced to approximately 1 percent.
This results in a longer run-time and prevents the heat generated by
FETs.
• Smooth frequency control allows settings to be adjusted flexibly.
• AWG14 silicone cables, for flexibility and large currents
• Gold-plating is used for all electrical connectors for extremely low
contact resistance.
• Outstanding energy-saving performance can be achieved by setting
the power limiter function to an appropriate value.
• Includes a high-capacity state-of-the-art low impedance capacitor to
minimize electrical noise.
• Improved throttle output resolution for more stable operation.
RAPIDA
• The ZERO offers 20 high-performance surface-mounted FETs that
give an ON-resistance value of 0.41 mΩ(FET standard value),
amongst the lowest in the world.
• You can choose four settings for brake frequency to adjust the
"braking feel" to just how you like it.
• You can switch neutral brake ON/OFF.
• By setting the power limit to an appropriate value, you can drive very
smoothly.
• The uses trimmer specifications for simple operation.
RAPIDA PRO
• The RAPIDA PRO offers 24 high-performance surface-mounted FETs
, for an ON-resistance of 0.34 mΩ, the lowest in the world.
• With the addition of an indicator function, a variety of settings and
measurement can be made easily using only the body of the ESC.
• Equipped with a variety of measuring functions for visual confirmation
of optimum settings.
• Improved receiver and servo power allow the RAPIDA PRO to handle
high torque servo.

*1 AGCS: Advanced Gate Control System
AGCS is a groundbreaking system that dramatically reduces losses during
pulse drive by dynamically controlling FET gates (ON-OFF) according to motor
speed (RPM). (PATENT PENDING)
*2 MPRS: Metal Plate Radiation (of Heat) Structure
MPRS is a hybrid structure in which current is conducted not through a copper
foil on the printed board but through a metal plate, for optimum configuration
of FETs.

Wiring
Take care not to make mistakes with battery polarity. Also, make sure to
connect the included noise-suppression capacitor to the motor. If not, you
may damage the ESC.

Part names and wiring
Rx connector
Do not change wiring before disconnecting the NiCd battery. Also, take care
not to make mistakes with the polarity of wiring, otherwise you may damage
the ESC, receiver or servo. Take particular care of the servo and receiver
since these cannot be repaired by ACUVANCE.
Insert the Rx connector pin according to the directions of the maker of the
receiver you are going to use. Connect carefully, making sure to properly orient
connectors to secure the connector pin.
Connecting cables incorrectly or inserting connectors in reverse may cause
damage to the servo and receiver.
If you use a receiver manufactured by a maker other than the manufacturers
listed above, contact your distributor or ACUVANCE.
