HobbyWing ESCs v3/v4 are equipped with RPM lead that is providing signal for the external governor. So you do not need to do anything else except connect the cables properly and turn off the internal Governor of the ESC.

- Move the Yellow cable to the middle in the Servo connector.
- You can do so with a needle easily.
