Hi all. I just got my eachine 50mm f18 pnp version and am doing the final assembly. I noticed the wire from the esc that goes to the receiver has the standard 3 wire plug but it also has a 4th single wire hanging off of it and I am wondering what this wire is for. Thanks in advance.

Unusual to see it on Throttle channel, probly just a safety option to use an extra channel to switch Throttle ON&OFF, as stated on Throttle Warning tab, often used on Gyros to turn them on or off. Program your transmitter as such.

Thanks Joseph. I never thought about a safety to keep the fan from spinning up on accident if bumped or something. My receiver and flight controller come today. I will play around with it and see.
