Wiring Connections
CNE252 Century Lightning Brushless Motor
PHX-10 Castle Creations Electronic Speed Controller
Note: In order to complete the connections you may need to modify some of
the existing equipment (not all connectors included).
The female motor connectors (provided with motor) will need to be permanently connected to the PHX-10 speed
control. In some cases you may wish to reverse polarity on the main motor. Do so by switching 2 of the wires.

Mounting The Brushless Motor To The Helicopter
Widen
with
dremel
Remove the standard 370 motor by removing its mounting
bolts. If you tested your connections prior to mounting
you will want to disconnect the motor from the other
components for the moment.
The 3 mounting holes for the motor will need to be
widened to accomidate the motor’s mounting
surface. Use a dremel or other cutting device and
widen the holes until there is enough room to
mount the motor with lowest portion sitting flush
to the frame plate.
There should be roughly one paper’s thickness
between the pinion gear and the main gear for
the smoothest gear mesh. If the screws provided are too long you can shear them or use a
spacer (not included) between the mounting
hole and bolt head.
