Introduction
The new ROXXY® Smart Control BL range of speed controllers of-
fers an integral telemetry function via the digital S.BUS2 interface. This
enables the ROXXY® Smart Control to keep you constantly informed
about the current state of your power system: current, battery capacity,
rotational speed, voltage and temperature are monitored, and the data
are passed to the pilot.
A standard feature of the new ROXXY® Smart Control speed con-
troller is the digital Futaba S.BUS2 interface, for easy connection to
Futaba telemetry systems. All control signals, and also the telem-
etry data generated by all the integral sensors, are passed to the
receiver's S.BUS2 socket via a single connecting lead.
Simply install, connect and program the speed controller in the usual
way, register it as a sensor at the transmitter, and the telemetry data
appear on the transmitter's screen - that's all there is to it.
Highlights:
• Optionalprogrammingcardforclearandeasy
adjustment of functions.
 Option of setting the controller for use with inrunner or
outrunner motors; LED indicator.
 Timing mode for matching the number of motor poles.

• Highclockfrequencyforultra-finecontrol,e.g.whentorque-

• Integraltemperaturemonitorprotectsagainstthermaldamage.
 The Smart Control series features are the usual protective and
filter functions, including POR (power-on guard) and RX-filter.
 Designed expressly for the ROXXY
®
BL motor series, but also
suitable for other brushless motors, since these controllers
feature virtually no restriction on the number of motor poles.

A total of seven parameters can be programmed.
Entering programming mode:
1. Disconnect the flight battery from the speed controller.
2. Switch the transmitter on, and move the throttle stick to the for-
ward
position.
3. Connect the flight battery to the speed controller.
4. After about four seconds the controller confirms programming
mode with a long beep.
5. After a further four seconds you will hear a melody (5-6-5).
The parameters are now available in an endless loop indicated by
asequenceofbeeps;seetable.
To select a parameter you must move the throttle stick
totheStoppositionwhenyouheartheappropriatesequenceof

where you can alter the settings: see table. The grey fields are the
factory default settings.

The BEC voltage can be adjusted to suit the receiver and the ser-
vos connected to it using the two micro-switches on the front of the
controller (see picture below). Default setting: 5 V.
The voltage can be set by using a small slot-head screwdriver to
move the switches to the appropriate position. Please refer to the
table for the switch positions and the corresponding voltages.

A special feature of these speed controllers is the ability to disable
the BEC voltage. This is particularly useful if you wish to switch the
model off for short periods without having to remove the wing, can-
opy etc.
This is accomplished by fitting a Futaba slide switch, and bridging
the white and black wires of one lead.

The monitor LED on the speed controller flashes green at one-sec-
ond intervals to indicate that it is switched off.
Note :
This method of switching off is not intended for long-term use or
storage, since a small current still flows; this would eventually dis-
charge the battery and ruin it.
