5.2 Cablejat del receptor

The VX3 Pro receiver supports both UART and PPM control modes. Choose the appropriate wiring based on your ESC (Electronic Speed Controller).

5.2.1 UART Control Mode

UART control mode supports one-key reverse function and data display, applicable for ESCs based on VESC and FTESC controllers.

Wiring diagram for UART control mode. The receiver pins BAT+, VRX2, VTX2, VRX1, VTX1, GND, 5V, PPM1, PPM2 are shown connected to VESC RX, VESC TX, VESC GND, VESC 5V. This mode supports one-key reverse and data display for VESC/FTESC.
Figure 5: UART Control Mode Wiring Diagram.

Connect the receiver to your VESC/FTESC as follows:

  • Receiver VTX1 to VESC RX
  • Receiver VRX1 to VESC TX
  • Receiver GND to VESC GND
  • Receiver 5V to VESC 5V
  • BAT+ for battery level detection (optional, connect to main battery positive)

5.2.2 PPM Control Mode

PPM control mode operates without positive and reverse switching functions and is applicable to all ESCs.

Wiring diagram for PPM control mode. The receiver pins BAT+, VRX2, VTX2, VRX1, VTX1, GND, 5V, PPM1, PPM2 are shown. PPM1 or PPM2 can be connected to the ESC. This mode is without positive and reverse switching function.
Figure 6: PPM Control Mode Wiring Diagram.

Connect the receiver to your ESC using either PPM1 or PPM2:

  • Connect Receiver PPM1 or PPM2 to the corresponding PPM input on your ESC.
  • Connect Receiver GND to ESC GND.
  • Connect Receiver 5V to ESC 5V.
  • BAT+ for battery level detection (optional, connect to main battery positive).

For more detailed wiring, refer to the comprehensive diagram below:

Detailed wiring diagram showing connections for both UART and PPM modes, including battery level detection line and VESC connections. It illustrates how to connect the receiver to a VESC for UART control and to a generic ESC for PPM control, with options for battery voltagLa detecció.
