Ohjekirjassa kaksi vaihtoehtoa:
Fast Blinking Red: Thermal Shutdown Protection Stage 1. If the motor has lower than normal power and the VXL-3m is hot, the VXL-3m has entered Stage 1 Thermal Shutdown Protection to guard against overheating caused by excessive current flow. If the motor has no power and the VXL-3m is very hot, the VXL-3m has entered Stage 2 Thermal Shutdown Protection and has automatically shut down. Let the VXL-3m cool. Make sure your model is properly geared for the conditions (see page 24).
Slow Blinking Red (with Low-Voltage Detection on): The VXL-3m has entered Low-Voltage Protection. When the battery voltage begins to reach the minimum recommended discharge voltage threshold for LiPo battery packs, the VXL-3m will limit the power output to 50% throttle. When the battery voltage attempts to fall below the minimum threshold, the VXL-3m will shut down all motor output. The LED on the speed control will slowly blink red, indicating a low-voltage shutdown. The VXL-3m will stay in this mode until a fully charged battery is connected.
