Thanks Choisan for the english manual. The esc I received from rc mart came with english instructions. I ran this in my tlr22 2.0 last night and it is hands down the best esc I have owned since the brushed keyence esc's. Butter smooth when you want it. Tons of power when you need it.

I will post this as others can use it
Transmitter calibration
Turn on transmitter and make sure D/R and EPA are set to 100% Also make sure no Expo has been set, you can add these functions later.
While transmitter is turned on hold down the set button then switch on ESC, you are now in calibration mode, release button. 1/ leave trigger in neutral position & push the button once. 2/ Hold full throttle on transmitter then push button once. 3/ Hold full brake on transmitter then push button once. Transmitter calibration is now complete power cycle the ESC.
The Super Vortex zero's programming is very simple without the need for additional devices and or a pc.
Setting's, to enter setup mode while esc is turned on push and hold the setup button until the blue led begins to blink, you are now is setup mode. Mode 1 is indicated by 1 blue flashing light , mode 2 is two flashing lights and so on. Each setting in a particular mode is indicated by the number of green flashing led, 1 flash is setting 1 & so on.
To change a setting in each mode is done by pushing the button until the led turns red, from there you push the button until you have the desired setting indicated by the green led.
Setting's
Mode 1 is Cutoff voltage
Mode 2 is Drive mode
Setting 1 is forward/brake Setting 2 is forward/reverse.
Mode 3 is Temp protection
The first temp is for ESC the second for motor in each step setting.
Mode 4 is Boost mode (Blinky mode)
The first setting is no boost, the second boost on*
*You will need to adjust the amount of boost in later steps.
Mode 5 is full brake rate (brake power)
Lower the setting the weaker the brake, the higher the setting the stronger.
Mode 6 is neutral brake rate (Drag brake)
Lower setting or 0% is no drag then drag brake increases with each setting.
Mode 7 is drive feel
Mode 8 is neutral brake feel
Mode 9 is brake feel
Mode 10 is Boost level/Timing advance
The higher the % the more boost.
Mode 11 is turbo level
Setting 11 will bring on turbo level when 100% throttle is applied.
Mode 12 is power mode
The higher the setting, the more power will be applied.
Hope this helps, it's a brilliant esc by design & function.

You are welcome. In fact, I don't set mine yet. I also get a Sanwa gyro and wait for the weekend to set up with my 472 receiver together. But for the gyro, I don't have the English manual. Hope someone can share his setting.

The Sanwa gyro is bigger than my futaba, this is something that I have to figure out how to put it into my f1 to the spot that the futaba gyro is now sticking on
