Caution
Always disconnect the battery from the ESC when you are fi nished using your vehicle. The switch on the
ESC controls the power that is delivered to the receiver and servos. The controller will always draw current
when it is connected to the battery and will completely discharge batteries if they are connected for long
durations. This may cause failure of your batteries.

For 2S or 3S LiPo packs we recommend a 25C rating or better. For 25C rated packs we
recommend a minimum of 4000mAh. For 30C+ rated packs we recommend a minimum of
3500mAh. Do not use NiCd/NiMH battery chargers for LiPO batteries.
If you do not use a special charger for LiPO batteries, they will be damaged. Using
batteries with a lower C rating may result in damage to your batteries.

Poor quality battery connectors can be a
roadblock to performance. Avoid the common
"white plastic" connectors commonly seen on
many battery packs. A fast brushless setup
will draw many times the power that these
connectors can safely handle. For this reason
your Maverick ESC is equipped with a high
capacity connector.
