# ESC wiring and connections

## Wiring Diagram

1. Solder contacts for motor-phase connections
2. LiPo Power supply GND -
3. LiPo Power supply +
4. PWM/Dshot signal input (servo signal)
5. PWM/Dshot signal GND (ground reference)
6. Solder jumper to set the direction of rotation (also in 3D mode)
7. Telemetry (e.g. On the KISS FC connected to TRX/TLM)
8. Status LED (indicates validity of the input signal)

## Add a capacitor for 6S LiPo use

> For 6S use it's a MUST to add an additional low ESR capacitor. Recommendation is minimum 330uF / 50V.

## Connecting KISS ESC to Remote Control RX

> You may use KISS ESC's on a plane or rover without the need of a flight control.

## Motor rotation direction

{% hint style="warning" %}
This needs to be done only if you are NOT using DSHOT! \
KISS FC's as well as BetaFlight based FC's do support change of the motor spin direction via GUI / CLI command.
{% endhint %}

On delivery JP1 (6) is open. If a change of direction of motor rotation is desired, the jumper can be closed. Close the jumper by adding solder to the pads → building a solder bridge

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://flyduino.gitbook.io/kiss-documentation/english-kiss-docu/kiss-esc-32a/esc-wiring-and-connections.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
