The COMBO-XRotor-X13 brushless power system is a plant protection power system that adapts to a single-rotor load of 25-27kg/rotor. The maximum thrust of a single-rotor is 53kg+; it is suitable for
a 50mm carbon fiber tube arm; the overall waterproof level is IPX6, and it is resistant to rain, rain pesticides, salt spray, high temperature, dust, impact, mud and sand resistance; the ESC uses FOC
vector control, based on PMSM system algorithm optimization; the system has digital throttle and analog throttle, which can make the flight more stable; the system has power-on automatic detection,
power-on voltage abnormal protection, over-current protection, stall protection and other protection functions; use CAN communication, with real-time data transmission; built-in fault storage
function, and records fault data.
• When use it please keep away from crowd, high voltage cable and obstacles and conform to safety regulations.
• Never approach to the high-speed rotating propeller & motor to avoid being injured by propeller.
• Check all the components conditions before use. If there is any damaged component, please contact after-sale service for replacement.
• Check if the mounting screws, and all connecting parts before flight.
• Always make sure the motor is horizontal before flight.
• The X13 power system is connected to a circular tube arm with a diameter of 50mm.
• The color of the power system navigation light can be selected. After removing the light housing, you can select the desired color by flipping the dial switch.
• The CAN function can only be used when the flight controller has a CAN Channel.
• This function can be realized only when the flight controller has a CAN channel.
• There is no digital throttle for serial communication. Serial communication is optional for this power system.
Power system installation
please specify how many screws. fastening screw
Components of the Power System
• The whole power system has been assembled before leaves the factory. Unpack and take out the power system to install on the rack agricultural as per the rotation direction of motor.
• The yellow, gray and green cables are the data output. Upgrade signal wire (ESC system is upgradable) and digital throttle using the Hobbywing CAN protocol. The yellow wire is ground wire, the
gray wire is CAN-High( CH), and the green wire is CAN-Low( CL).
• The optional serial communication power system. Yellow, red and green cables are the data output and update signal line (the ESC system can be updated).
• The black and white is the PWM throttle wire, the black wire is ground wire, and the white wire is signal wire.
• The data signal line outputs in real time; the input and output throttle, motor speed, bus current, phase current, bus voltage, capacitor temperature, Mosfet temperature and other data.
• The throttle pulse width was fixed at 1050~1950µs.
• The CAN digital throttle needs to be adapted separately by the flight controller and the Hobbywing CAN protocol. Please obtain the protocol from Hobbywing sales, after-sales service, agents,
flight control manufacturers, etc.

When the power is connected normally, the ESC will first start the self-test. If the self-test is successful, it will run normally after beeping. If the self-test fails, it will not start and the flashing light will
When the ESC detects that the motor is locked, the ESC will completely turn off the output and will not restart the motor. At this time, it is necessary to power cycle to clear the error and restart the
ESC to restore power output.
When it detects that the instantaneous current abnormality reaches close to 320A, the ESC will restart immediately, and the output will be turned off if the number of detections reaches 6
consecutive times. After the motor stops, it will return to normal after power on again.
• Throttle signal loss protection:
When the ESC detects that the throttle remote control signal is lost for more than 0.25 seconds, it will immediately turn off the output to avoid greater losses caused by the continued high-speed
rotation of the propeller. After the signal is restored, the ESC will immediately restore the corresponding power output.
• Temperature protection:
This power system has no temperature protection, and will only send out an alarm when the temperature of the ESC is higher than 110°C. The flashing lights will be 1 long and 3 short, and 1 lon
and 4 short. When the temperature exceeds 130 degrees, the ESC may be burnt. Upon seeing the prompt, please land immediately.
Use a tool to take out the M3×8 screws that fasten the led cover, and set the switches according to the corresponding light color below (factory default green). After the setting the switches, assemble
and fasten the led cover.
• Use the appropriate tools to take out the two propeller fastening screws and replace them with new propellers. If you need to replace the propeller clips, continue to take out the fastening screws
and replace the whole set of propeller clips and propellers.
• Installing the propeller clip blades
Firstl, install the bottom cover on the motor, followed by the propeller blades, propeller gaskets, upper cover (propeller clips) and the final screws in order; pay attention to the installation of the
After clamping, the propeller should rotate freely, and make sure that the propeller clamp and the motor fastening screw are tightened and thread locker is used at the same time.
There are two ways to update the firmware: online update via a computer or using flight control pass through. The process using the flight controller pass through are as follows.
This function uses DataLink data box, special DataLink software for upgrade package, and USB data cable.
DataLink data box version requirements, LINK-01.2.14-C or higher version, LINK-01.2.09-U or higher version; DataLink software contact Hobbywing to obtain.
Note: Please ensure that the computer has already installed the Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 before or later using. An upgrade package contains only one program for each ESC. For other programs,
please obtain a new upgrade package. For additional details, please refer to the DataLink user manual. The upgrade package can be obtained at the place of purchase; Hobbywing official
website, dealers, Hobbywing sales, Hobbywing, and after-sales service. The FOC ESC will not support any other firmware, and can only be updated to the official firmware.
