Programming the Hobbywing Skywalker ESC

How to program the Hobbywing Skywalker ESC using the throttle on your transmitter. This allows you to change the brake settings, battery type, start mode and more.
This works for the skywalker series of ESC's. To do this you need a receiver bound to the transmitter and connected to the ESC.
It also demonstrates how to calibrate the throttle positions.
For an excellent description of this process please refer to the owner's manual.

The best explanation for ESC programming using a radio. Thank you!

Extremely helpful and blessedly concise!

This is a very informative video. If I had one of these it would help me immensely!!

Hi Benson, thanks for the video. This seems identical in programming, sounds etc as the older turnigy plush too.

I bought this ESC a few of years ago, and I used it multiple times with no problem (2s lipo battery, brushless motor and a flysky fs ia6 receiver). Today I found it again after not using it for years and it won't connect, it just makes two short beeps from time to time

Can i use this esc with multirotor (hexacoptor)?

[sujihettiarachchi]

Hi how to setup the hobby wing ESC to get higher RPM rate???

[YumaGoto-twmp]

Mine doesn't calibrate, after a long series of short beeps and long pauses, it will beep short and short pauses indicating that the throttle is not in buttom position. Also, no 2 short beeps even in max throttle before powering up the esc. any fix?

Please help - when I try to do the first step - calibration- with the throttle up, and plug in a battery to the esc, instead of a couple of beeps - I get a constant series of beeps that does not stop, even after I lower the throttle.

Hi, thanks
Does it the same for the 30A? Or 20A?

[bilalirfan]

does the ESC have bidirectional? this means that can it spin the motor in both directions?

I needed to use my motor and Skywalker (12a) esc from my plane in my airboat and I'm using a pistol grip RC car radio but because the default position of the trigger throttle is 70-30, my motor comes on until I push full brake. I tried reprogramming the esc by holding full throttle, powering the esc, waiting for the beeps and then letting the trigger go back to neutral, listening for the beeps, then unplugging the battery pack from the esc. When I power the esc again, I push full brake and then full throttle to arm the esc, the motor starts running again at a high idle until I push full brake again to stop the motor. Are these esc's incompatible with car radios? I even tried adjusting my throttle trim and subtrim towards the brake, but they maxed out to a low idle.

Hello! which protocol it handles (oneshot, dshot, etc). Thanks

[KhiemNguyen-ooyp]

I wonder if we can you the oneshot125 protocol for this hobbywing skywalker esc
